Memoir is this wonderful category of writing where a person focuses on a major theme from their life story and shares how they changed over time. Many writers of memoir have never written a book before - they're not even sure they identify as an author, but they know they have a story to tell. And they know their story will impact readers.In this episode, you receive a mini-masterclass depicting what memoir is, who became well-known, which memoirs stood the test of time - and most of all - the benefits to you as a reader of memoir.Coach Debby offers classes and retreats for all levels of writers.Follow her newsletter:https://coachdebby.us17.list-manage.com/subscribe?u=b4e0e4813c2d5d7bc3e03507b&id=5b97bac13fCatch her on Youtube:https://youtube.com/@coachdebby564?si=vV8SftGrYyBLhsxiFollow the podcast recorded live at KKNW in Seattle every Thursday.https://1150kknw.com/podcasts/story-u-talk-radiowith-coach-debby/Reach out to Coach Debbyhttps://www.coachdebby.com/connectSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

You've heard the phrase before: The proof is in the pudding. But did it ever dawn on you that you are the proof? Old belief systems can get us stuck in unwanted habits - beliefs that tell us we need another certification, more research, more status (more anything) to be a worthy voice on paper.Possibility exists is in the present moment, not in our dark memories. Does this sound tricky?

 As you set out to write your personal blog, speech, article, or even a book, It's important to ground yourself in your present character so you can objectively look to your history and share it without reliving the past. Some emotions may come up - and that's quite natural - but you are no longer that character of your past. Today's show will help you see the contrast between who you are today - intelligent, successful, articulate - and the character you once identified as, whether you were a rebel, an explorer, a wander, a maiden, an artist, or any other type.Coach Debby offers classes for all levels of writers. Follow her weekly newsletter: https://coachdebby.us17.list-manage.com/subscribe?u=b4e0e4813c2d5d7bc3e03507b&id=5b97bac13fCatch her on Youtubehttps://youtube.com/@coachdebby564?si=vV8SftGrYyBLhsxiFollow the podcast, recorded live at KKNW in Seattle every Thursday.https://1150kknw.com/podcasts/story-u-talk-radiowith-coach-debby/See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

I invited Chad Lisonbee to join me today. He has a successful Youtube channel where he helps people realize their potential. Dedicated to a higher calling, Chad walks regularly in the gorgeous woods of the Pacific Northwest and films his words of strength that come straight from his own experience. He doesn't consider himself a guru. Yet he is committed to people who seek to know their own wisdom and make conscientious decisions.Talking with Chad today was an absolute delight. He is authentic, thoughtful, and unscripted. His episodes on Youtube capture his walks referred to as a series of "Sweat Talks." You'll love his candid and available presence.

You don't need to major in creative writing to begin a blog or write an excellent speech. However, you will want to add story of people and situations to make clear and effective points.New writers sometimes stick with concepts they know and use their blog to teach or simply to share. Essentially, their blog is a summary. But is this enough? To really entice your readers, offer stories - not just concepts - about people and situations that have undergone changes. Be sure to reveal your expertise.This podcast episode reveals a basic "course" in creative writing, and if you would like to go further, I invite you to reach out: https://www.coachdebby.com/connectSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Alan Alda wisely said, "You have to leave the city of your comfort and go into the wilderness of your intuition. What you'll discover will be wonderful. What you'll discover is yourself." I love this quote! It reminds me that each and every day is intended to be fully experienced.If you are feeling the lingering effects of unfulfilled desires, you may have agreed to constrictions. In today's show, we will talk about releasing constrictions and embracing creativity.

There really is something fun and magical about turning the calendar page to a brand new year - 365 beautiful days in front of you to create on a shiny new canvas. At every moment and every crossroad, we are choosing what we want to see on our canvas - we are literally designing life! If you're anything like me, you might confuse the excitement of a new year with rushing full speed ahead. And this is how we make the new year look a lot like the last year.Perhaps this is the year that you will write your book or offer your TedX speech. Who says you need to rush into it? Planning and organizing is an important step. Drafting requires intention. And editing only works when you can take a short breather between drafts. Rushing is never required. Feeling excited - now that's a great place to be - But rushing could send you into tailspin. I suggest working with a coach and getting focused. Learn to work thoughtfully with time.

As the days get shorter and cooler, there's more opportunity to be tucked in at home... possibly with your journal. While some writers only rant their way to the bottom of the page, you might find your journal is full of wise gems. Such wisdom lives in your heart. It is in your ability to listen to yourself - to actually take a break from the monkey mind and really listen - where you'll find your wisdom.Be careful how much you fill up your time with idle games or doomed info-bites. Give yourself seven days to really honor a clean mind, and notice all the wisdom, that flocks from your heart and creativity. What would it be like to fill a journal full of that? :)Follow me each week on KKNW 1150 AM radio in Seattle, Washington for a new topic every Thursday.
