Hi there!
My name is Janelle and I help people like you write their memoirs, reclaim their lives and reconnect with their bodies so they can feel at ease with their lives and their stories.
I’ve got a particular passion for our individual and cultural stories, a deep reverence for the power of stories and identity, and great respect for the immensely beautiful force of questioning our stories, even as we honour them.
I work with creative, sensitive big-hearted folk, helping them to grow, heal and thrive.
I’ve been working as a somatic healer for 17+ years and teaching adults for 20+ years. I’m also a published writer and have taught creative arts, writing and healing workshops online and in person for almost as long.
I’m skilled at braiding creativity and body-wisdom together with deep cultural knowing and self exploration (and life stories and memoirs are a great way to do that) to create spaciousness, ease and joy in our lives.
What this means for you is that I’ve got an uncommon ability to listen deeply, ask useful questions, see patterns, draw threads together, do my research and guide you towards your goals.
So let’s step towards our calling, towards our stories, towards our personal mythologies, and start the mythmaking.
Join me in outlining your memoir. It’ll be playful, fun and rich!
