This workshop in particular has helped me clarify, for 2 years in a row, the focus of my year and what my goals are, the way that I want to show up in my writing life, and what I require in any commitments I make.
This workshop helped me better understand that my relationship to my creative work has not been as open and free-flowing as I would like. I tend to accommodate others too much instead of asking for what I need; this workshop helps me articulate first to myself, and then to others, what I'll need to perform at my best. And also to be choosier than what I take on in the first place!
I've gotten a lot out of this workshop the two times I've taken it, and I will definitely I plan to keep taking it annually as a way to reset my priorities and intentions for the year.

“I have been more intentional with how I use my time and my energy. I have curiosity about my daily and creative processes. I am curious and intentional about trying new things and reflecting on the “why” versus giving up when something isn’t working in my daily and creative process.”
Doris Corcese
“When I retired, I intended to devote myself entirely to writing.
But as time went on, I kept getting side-lined by other priorities—not always my own, but others’ issues, problems and their priorities, and I realized I had a problem saying no, and that I needed to learn to focus on my own needs.
People-pleasing and managing boundaries is something I’ve struggled with all of my life. So, when Chelene’s workshop came up, I thought, hey, this looks like a good place to start again. And it was.
I also appreciated hearing about Chelene’s own experience of leaving the security of a regular job to start her own business. That takes a tremendous amount of courage and self-discipline. it was her suggestion about “protecting” one’s own time that really struck a nerve with me. I love that word, protecting.
There is something so serene about Chelene, and there’s also an intensity about her—a passion and commitment to follow her dreams, and to inspire others to do the same, by creating a map, a plan, a way forward.
What I’ve seen is a transformation in her confidence. I think she’s figured it out, this whole self-care thing. And I appreciate what she’s offering and what she’s modeling. I need a bit of that. And I think I’m on my way.”
