Mar 14, 2022

Do you put a lot of pressure on yourself to write? Are your childhood stories around what it means to be a writer still holding you back from sharing authentic stories that connect? In today’s episode Megan Barnhard shares her inspiring story of becoming an intuitive writing coach. She shares the connection between writing and ancient magic. Megan shares how the online agenda may be clouding your opportunity to share your story and how to reframe how you think about consistency in order to write more and create deeper connections!

 

In this episode we chat about:

How your words, spoken and written, are pure magic.

Megan finds the same mindset blocks in her clients as she did in her 4th grade students. 

Writing as play and allowing yourself to be bad.

The balance between professionalism and over sharing.

Coffee/connection chats

Being a female with a cycle

 

And so much more!

 

Megan Barnhard is an intuitive writing coach and Story Magician. She helps transformational coaches write conscious business content or the book that's in their soul. 

 

Her superpowers are being an empathic channel, connecting the dots so her clients see their own magic, and helping people uncover their writing flow.    

 

Megan's on a mission to help women unleash their authentic voice and change the world with their words. She believes words are energy, and energy is what moves us all.
