Begin the New Year with a Writing Group

Filed Under: Everyday Feminism, Higher Education By Beth Godbee December 17, 2022 Leave a Comment

This image shows a writing scene (coffee, flowers, blank page, and pen against wooden planks) and shares information: “Writing groups start again on Jan. 7th. Register for 2 or 4 months: Jan-Feb or Jan-Apr. Many registration options: Heart-Head-Hands.com.”

Registration is open for writing groups starting in January! Writing groups can support us in many ways—from holding creative space to building community with other writers. I’m excited about a few new things: There are now options to join the weekly group on Tuesdays, Fridays, or both days. Dr. Candace Epps-Robertson is joining as a facilitator. There are expanded sliding-scale registration options. Registration includes a one-day writing retreat for every two-month ... Read more ...

This flyer shows two photos of Beth, an open laptop, colorful bookshelf, social media icons, and the logo for Heart-Head-Hands.com. It includes one text box that reads: “Hello! I’m an educator, writer, and former writing studies professor who now offers public education courses, coaching, and retreats. I believe our fully embodied selves matter in the world.

This is where Heart-Head-Hands gets its name.” Another text box has a list of offerings: “weekly writing groups, online writing retreats, one-with-one coaching, writing workshops, and contemplative writing practices.”

Some conversations have focused on prioritizing research during the school year, especially how to write in the midst of burnout and productivity pressures. Some conversations ... Read more ...

I've been reflecting a lot on trails this winter a I've been reflecting a lot on trails this winter and feeling how grateful I am that my work, especially coaching, is rooted in relationships.
 
One-with-one coaching can mean many different things, but it always involves connecting, listening, question-asking, and co-learning. At its best, it highlights what’s possible—possible in writing, relations, and life.
 
If you're interested in learning more or want to try a session, reach out. I'm here.
 
*This photo shows me standing next to a carved statue of two bears (adult and cub). Bears remind me of the importance of introspection and self-work, especially during the winter hibernation season. What are you reflecting on these days?
