Welcome to Story Fairy Legacy.

Pull up a stool.

Let’s weave a series of stories that encapsulates your essence, your wisdom, and your legacy.

Lightly, gently, and meaningfully.

A story doesn’t ask for perfection.

I am often stopped in my tracks by the wary and critical voices of my mind, cautioning me that I don’t know enough or “write well enough” to even bother.

I know how it feels to hold your history close to your chest, concerned you may offend a loved one or need to defend your side of the story.

I understand the desire to keep your best-kept secrets up your sleeve for fear that speaking them may dull their allure or expose their weakness.

But I also know how liberating and en-lightening it is to let your stories go.

To afford your wisdom wings to enchant and enrich the lives of others.

And to venture to weave your creativity into a conscious legacy.

A story has no rigid rulebook. No linear beginning, middle, and end.

It is a living piece of history, an expanding mystery, a fertile pause or punctuation point to enter presence and garner perspective.

The first, and most important, person to benefit from this is you.

The process of dipping your quill into the well of your own stories enables you to better understand the facets of your being and express the sentiments you are holding.

An intoxicating dance that brings softness, peace, and acceptance.

As a species, we simply must connect with others, find meaning in our lives, and cultivate a deeper understanding of our presence and perspective.

LENKA GUCKER

“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.”

MYRNA HALPERN

“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.”

benefits to participants

VOICE DISCOVERY

Your true voice has little creative outlet. The words you choose are a reflection of the company you keep and the daily stories you consume. The style of your writing is stunted by the grammatical rules you have bound yourself to and the good practices you have developed. Stripping back the pressure to perform allows a connection with a truer expression, revealing the nature of your creativity.

CONFIDENCE BUILDING

Perhaps you were criticized for having poor grammar, you fear you have nothing significant to say, or you worry you will be misunderstood. Seeing your story take shape effortlessly fuels self-confidence in your own capabilities and ignites the courage to continue. This new-found superpower can foster strength and resilience in other areas too.

PATTERN MAPPING

You’re stories are interconnected, and you are the glue. As you write, you reveal patterns and themes between your ideas and experiences. Giving voice to seemingly unrelated ideas or highly charged moments in your life helps to shape an understanding of the overarching journey. Your plot twists, story circles, and life lessons as well as the purpose and through-thread in your projects.

CONSCIOUS LIVING

Storytelling teaches the gentle and subtle art of noticing. Finding presence in your day to day by bringing focus and importance to the details of your interactions with others and your engagement with the world around you. You begin to appreciate the glimmers of magic and the abundance of joy within your environment and your spirit.

IMAGINATION IGNITION

Stories breed stories. The more you nourish your connection to your imagination and share the insights and ideas that arise there, the more inspiration finds you. The more inspiration finds you, the more your imagination is expanded and your expression liberated. You begin to see yourself, your relationships, and your creativity with more awe and lightness. This childlike sense of wonder and abandon increases joy and connection.

HOLDING & HEALING

The opposite of depression is not joy, it is expression. Emotions must move or they cause imbalance and dis-ease. Stories, just like emotions, hold an energetic charge, which is neither positive or negative when the current is kept in flow. Their expression holds you, heals you, and carries you into the next chapter.
