Join me for Brave Blogging!

Blogging is still the best way to grow your audience + find your tribe!

I have been blogging since 2003… which kinda blows my mind. That’s 13 years! And fiercely believe that blogging is still the best way to grow your audience and find your tribe. I also love the way it nourishes me personally – it helps me feel connected to my voice, my community and my spirit.

Writing for me is like exercise – the more I do it, the more I WANT to do it.
And the more I crave it? The better I get at it + the more I find myself in flow.

And again, just like my exercise practice, I have a hard time doing it at home. I like the support of a teacher, a guide, someone telling me what to do. I like the feeling of the room, of being in a community of others that are all practicing together.

It feels better.
I show up more fully.
It’s more fun.

So it is in the spirit of community, of not having to go it alone, of being able to share our work with a group of open-hearted souls that this course was born.

Here’s what you will discover inside:

  • Fresh writing prompts + photo prompts
  • Lessons in being brave with our voice
  • Lessons on creating graphics + finding great images
  • Interviews with other inspiring bloggers
  • Community cheerleading + accountability
  • A place to share your work – both inside the classroom and with a weekly roundup on the Superhero Blog.

This course is designed for you:

If you want to jump start your blog back into aliveness!
If you have always wanted to start a blog but don’t know where to begin.
If you need some inspiration + a friendly guide to get you going.
If you want to be more BRAVE with your voice and share the real deal of your heart.
If you don’t fancy yourself a writer, but you have things you want to share!

Courage interview with Rachael Maddox: Healing from sexual trauma

Hey friends,

So excited to bring you this interview today! It’s a brave + vulnerable conversation with me and Rachael Maddox. We talk about her work in helping women heal from sexual trauma and how we can all move toward our aliveness by listening to our spirit and our bodies.

This conversation is deeply personal and on a topic that has normally been taboo for me – sex. I originally recorded it for the Cultivating Courage course, but realized that there might be more women out there who need to hear it. So here it is! From our hearts to yours. Enjoy!

 


Rachael Maddox is a life coach, a trauma specialist, a singer-songwriter and most recently the author of the book: Secret Bad Girl: A Sexual Trauma Memoir and Resolution Guide.  To see more about Rachel or work with her as a coaching client, go to her website here.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

      

When you don’t feel brave.

I’ve had some experience with this lately – not feeling brave. In fact, I’ve been feeling positively terrified lately, the kind that wakes you up in the middle of the night like a surge of electricity – Single motherhood? WTF? How am I going to pull this off?

For someone like myself who is usually positive, this feels extra scary.

We come by it honestly.
There is nothing wrong with us if we feel afraid.
If you are feeling afraid about what comes next, you’re not alone.

There’s a lot of talk about being fearless out there… but honestly, I’ve never felt fearless. 

I’ve only felt afraid, and then called on the support of friends to help me ride the waves.
I have tools to help me keep going.
I have my courage practices that keep me in the game, even when it doesn’t feel easy.

I always find it ironic that when I have a new session of Cultivating Courage starting, I don’t feel the LEAST BIT BRAVE. Today is no exception. I have had several friends on speed dial this weekend. They answer and I don’t even say it’s me… I just start crying… I’m so grateful to have friends who can hold space for me in this way.

Whatever season you are in with regard to courage, you are welcome in the course beginning today. (Just $49)

I’m attaching a Courage Interview worksheet as a gift. It’s a good way to see where you are with your courage muscles and what might be possible for you this year. And if it inspires you to join us in the course, we’ve got your back!

Sending love to you in all the tender places today,
Andrea
