This may be
The write of your life.
I want to get you journaling and keep you journaling.
Hi, I’m Ant
Journaling re-ignites your heart. It reawakens you and enables you to live with greater self-awareness, mindfulness, and courage.
Journaling connects your hopes and dreams, your heart and mind. It opens your soul to deep healing and new perspectives. Journaling is a powerful enabler to becoming a more passionate, more alive you. It is a path toward a richer, deeper, and more meaningful life. Writing for mental clarity, emotional healing, or creative enrichment is a big deal. It calms and clears the mind. It’s an excellent de-stressor. Research shows the benefits of journaling even extend to our immune system functioning.
Invest in your emotional and mental health and come learn how to make this a life-giving rhythm in your world.
Welcome to
It’s the work that breathes life into all other work.
I want to grow old with an increasingly soft heart. A heart too soft to store up cynicism or resentment, and wide open to ongoing forgiveness.
I aspire to be a bridge-builder rather than a wall-maker, emotionally in tune so that the chorus of my soul is empathy and compassion.
I’m intentionally pursuing a life that makes it hard for my heart to grow cold; one that beats warmly and welcomes genuine connections. I want to be a flexible old gal: full of curiosity, wonder, and awe at the world around me and the people who fill it. Strong and brave enough to reach the dusty cobwebs of fear and anxiety and sweep them clean with faith, hope, and love instead. A heart stares down uncertainty and refuses to let it overwhelm and paralyse me.
May that powerful and robust positioning of my heart develop it into a more selfless one with every trip around the sun. I’m intent on becoming the most loving and fun-loving version of myself around.
and this takes heart work
My storytelling journey
I studied to be a journalist, worked in television production, produced a podcast, and am a photographer. I have always written – articles, scripts, research, poetry, and far-too-long text messages. Somewhere amidst it all, I started teaching others to do this thing called journaling, which I was (and still am) unusually passionate about.
(My full and formal CV is below if you want that sort of thing).
“We are all storytellers. We all live in a network of stories. There isn’t a stronger connection between people than storytelling.”
– Jimmy Neil Smith
