Episode Details

This episode is for you if you’ve tried journaling and found it intimidating or hard to keep up with…

If you don't currently have a journal practice..

If you love making lists…

Or if you wish to have some moments of reflection at the end of the year. 

In this episode, I completely rewrite what journaling gets to look like.

I share my own journaling journey and how it never looked like the perfect “Dear Diary” (Britney Spears) place. I recount how journaling first took place in my life and how it evolved.. the first notebook my teacher gave me with a handwritten note inside, to passing notebooks around with friends, to quotes, lists, colors, markers. Realizing that I was journaling before I even called it that. 

We talk about:

• Why journaling doesn’t have to look one way

• How lists, colors, doodles, and even rereading old notes count

• How expression on paper mirrors improvisation on the dance floor 

• Using journaling to get thoughts out of your head so they stop looping

• Why “boring” lives still hold powerful material when written down

I also share how pulling a card from my favorite deck has become part of my  practice ... so stay with me toward the end for a little intuitive moment together.

And finally, we zoom out and talk about progress as journaling, including how our studio showcase videos and watching yourself grow over time is in fact, a form of journaling. 

This episode is about making journaling easier, more playful, more expressive, and more you.

Another way to learn about yourself without rules and without pressure.
