Fear or freedom?
Of course, we all say, “I choose freedom!” But do we? Every time we say “I can’t…” we are giving into fear – fear of failure, fear of the unknown, fear of looking stupid.

My growing desire to ‘teach a man to fish’ and connect more with others has begun to transform my thinking around my business, Wordsmith & More. I have developed a new workshop called ‘Copywriting: Tricks of the Trade’ that, in a few hours, will transform how write about your business. You already have the passion, I can give you the knowhow and seeing the results will give you the confidence – it’s that simple!
After sitting at the desk of Wordsmith & More for 6 years, 4 days a week, 6 hours a day, I’m ready for more (and more meaningful) face-to-face interaction with others. Part of my life’s journey has been exploring my own self-expression through journaling, story writing, poetry, drawing, printmaking, clay modeling, carving, spiritual awakening and dance. In 2012/13 I plan to begin developing a whole raft of arts-based workshops focused on self-expression with artists and healers from around the country. Please stay tuned!

Six years into my business I am developing workshops and guidelines for copywriting, business planning and creative writing… with a fair pull towards also working with others to develop a whole range of workshops focused on self expression using meditation, dance, clay, voice – whatever works!
