Agents often share that what makes a memoir stand out in the marketplace is a strong author’s voice. In this workshop we will uncover the soul of the writing with fun and interactive voice techniques to make the storytelling as dynamic as possible. Students will also learn how to craft smooth transitions as well as how to enter and exit a chapter or scene. Participants will gain a better understanding how to create a seamless text that takes the reader between past memories (flashbacks) and present-day experiences and observations. We will work on bringing the theme of the piece to life so that the manuscript will resonate with universal meaning. Symbolism will also be explored as a way to deepen the writing and flesh out the theme of your book. Class structure: Except for the first class, the first hour will be lecture and the second hour will be read and critique where participants can workshop their material or class assignments. Tone of class: We strive to create a supportive, nurturing environment where participants feel encouraged to share, risk and connect to their most creative self.

About the Host: Hi, I’m Josie Anderson—In 2023, I hit a breaking point. Burnt out from work, drowning in daily expectations, and overwhelmed by the mental load of motherhood, I found myself asking: “Is this really how life is supposed to feel?” That moment became my wake-up call. Since then, I’ve been on a mission—alongside the inspiring speakers and sponsors of this event—to support moms who feel stuck, unseen, and stretched too thin. You are not alone. This space was created for you. This event is a celebration, yes—but it’s also a safe, soulful space to talk about the real journey of motherhood. To be vulnerable. To be heard. And to rediscover the joy, clarity, and fulfillment you deeply deserve. There’s a life beyond burnout—one full of alignment, self-love, and freedom you can’t yet imagine. My prayer is that this event plants a seed of hope and reminds you of how powerful and worthy you already are. I can’t wait to welcome you in. https://thedivineselfbyjosieanderson.com/
