Spellbound
An apprenticeship in your own word wisdom.
Now is the time to write your story.
To get your perspective onto the paper.
But you keep shrinking away from that “book” icon winking at you from your desktop.
And the time you block for “writing” keeps passing without any progress.
Creative inspiration can be sneakily aloof like that — especially when you truly want to capture it.

Then, storytelling is such an art. It’s hard to know where to start.
Shaping a personal journey into a meaningful story requires an objective perspective that can be hard to access alone.
Before you know it, the initial delight and excitement fades, the concept of structure makes your eyes glaze, and the task feels heavy, boggy, and burdensome.

Whether your work of heart is more of a perspective piece based on professional experience…
…Or a meandering through the relationships and events that shaped your personal life and lens…
This whimsical word nerd (that’s me!) is here to help you mould your journey and share your personality in a form you can treasure forever.
Hi, it’s Lauren:
I want you to know what I adore about storytelling.
Your story is a living piece of history, an expanding mystery, a punctuation point to enter presence and garner perspective.
What’s more, a story has no rigid rulebook. No linear beginning, middle, and end.
It is an invitation to step into a moment and immerse yourself in its colours, details, and emotions — like Dick Van Dyke leaping into chalk paintings in Mary Poppins!
Your most vibrant memories have stayed with you for a reason.
They tell you, and therefore others, something about you. What you value and what drives you. What lessons you have learned and wisdom you have earned. What relationships mattered to you and decisions altered your worldview.
Mapping your unique blend of wisdom and experience is a journey of self-discovery.
As we hop from one highly-charged memory to another, one resonant thread of wisdom to another, dots are joined and perspective is gained.
In learning more about you, others develop a deeper understanding of themselves. Who they are. Where they’ve come from. What memories are still to make and what dreams are still to realise.
Your path thus far is filled with potential for mutual growth. You feel called to share it because someone else needs it. And so do you.
A story doesn’t ask for perfection. It asks for focused attention and honest expression. Enter this conversation with an open mind, a curious heart, and a willingness to witness the mystery unfold.
I’ll listen intently and without judgement. I’ll help you honour your wisdom and hone your expression to finally give voice to the story that sits in your psyche.

“Lauren showed me how I can communicate to my audience and still be myself. And what I loved about the sessions the most, was her encouragement and empowerment not to be afraid to write.”

“With 20 years of teaching creative writing to gifted students, I thought I knew a thing or two about creative expression, but Lauren taught me the art and nuance of writing so that your audience clearly sees where they fit into your world with you.”
