There’s nothing more special to me than watching my students become authors.

For the past two years, I have had the privilege of editing Jade Michelle’s memoir, Daisy Chains and Butterflies. Some of you know her as TJ 🙂

This vivid memoir explores the lifelong impact of childhood sexual abuse and the silence that so often surrounds it. It is confronting, compassionate and ultimately hopeful. It shines a light on experiences that are too often hidden behind shame. It will ignite much-needed conversation.

Jade completed every HeartWriting® Workshop while writing and re-writing her 55,000 words. Working steadily, chapter by chapter, and lesson by lesson, she developed the craft to write her book powerfully. It wasn’t easy in the beginning – and the content was triggering. But it was a healing process, and a lifelong dream to finally tell her story.

As Jade’s editor, I helped shape the structure, strengthen the manuscript and copy edit the final draft. But the words, the voice, the story and the courage are entirely hers.

Watching this manuscript evolve has been one of the greatest privileges of my career.

No, it’s not an easy read. But it’s a story that has left a huge impact on me. And the story doesn’t end here. Jade is already writing her second book (this time about the healing presence of dogs!)

I’d love you to support an emerging Australian author. Daisy Chains and Butterflies is now available to pre-order.

Every order matters. Every new author remembers the people who believed in them before everyone else did. And one day, this could be you 🙂

Congratulations, Jade. I’m so proud of you. Your voice matters, and this beautiful book is going to make a difference. 🤍

Yesterday I finished marking the final writing pieces that came out of the Bali HeartWriting Retreat…

Wow. Just wow.

These writers came along to the retreat, excited to open their hearts and write…

But they probably had no idea what they were about to produce and refine.

Now that I’ve done the edits, these are all publishable pieces of art.

And each story tells a deep journey of a memory that they wouldn’t have thought twice about if it wasn’t for the meditation that brought them back to that place.

I’m feeling alive, creative and excited by my life and HeartWriting…

And I’m reflecting on the quality of work my HeartWriters are producing. Proud is an understatement.

Their stories deserve to be in books.

It would be such an honour to be able to produce an anthology of HeartWriting stories one day. All these stories that are the result of opening the heart… while studying the mechanics of writing…

to better articulate what the heart wants to say.

Taking applications right now for:

Bali Retreat May 18-21 2027. Limited places available. Bookings must be made by September.

The HeartWriting Workshop — the signature online 8-week course that teaches you everything about the heart and writing. Starts late February. Only 10 places.
