Your Meaningful Life in Memoir
Telling your life’s truest tales
A Six Week Writing Workshop, Autumn 2017, Lindsay, Ontario
We tell stories about who we are, where we come from, and where we are going. These personal myths shape who we become and what we believe.
Writing our stories down allows us to engage with them in a new way and also allows us to have our stories witnessed by others – a powerful tool in re-authoring our lives and identities.
At the pinnacle of his career, psychologist Carl Jung declared that the most important task for every human being is to understand the guiding myth or story of his or her life.
In this six week writing we will explore writing exercises that will help us detect our hidden story lines, and will write our stories in a way that opens up the meaning to us and to those to whom we choose to tell our tales.

In the summer of 2013 I was invited to do a TEDtalk on “Shining the light on our Changing Communities”. I talked about the therapeutic writing program I do with incarcerated women. You can view the talk here.
