A wise old woman once told me about FEA.
Anna is a mystic whose life is a prayer to wisdom, and she is old, of the legendary kind.
It was Anna who told me about FEA – fucking enough already.
It’s only when we’ve had enough, said Anna, that we make the life changes the psyche, or soul, has been crying out for.
FEA. The tipping point. FEA. The turning tide. FEA. The moment everything is possible again.
FEA is what we do at the Bali women’s wellbeing writing retreat – for women who’ve had enough of repetitive narratives undermining their health, their wellbeing, their one precious life.
FEA is what we do in the Ultreia book writing support program – for anyone who’s had enough of wishing they could write that book that haunts their waking lives.
FEA is what Write Your Way Home is for, the journaling guidebook loaded with questions to lead you to and through and beyond the blaming and the shaming and the wishing and the wanting something … else.
It take courage to find words we can trust. It takes practice. It takes encouragement. It takes guidance. It takes support.
Ultreia, we keep going.
