You don't have to wait for the writing muse to show up. Because the muse muse isn't some mysterious force out there. The muse lives in your body. And by connecting with your body through movement, you can source your most creative writing whenever you want to.
At your own speed, you'll learn how to move through writer's block, get more daring with your writing, fall in love with the writing process again and build a sustainable writing practice that will grow with you.
It's time to find your voice and tell your story.
TAKE ME TO DEEPER WRITING
You're ready for your voice to be heard, but it's shaking right now.
You’ve always been creative, visionary and resourceful - and pretty good at writing, or at least very much drawn to it - yet now, every time you sit down to write, it’s like everything inside you is blocking the words and you’re left staring at a blank screen.
The good news is: You don't have to clean the entire house before you sit down to write. Procrastination patterns are our body's way of telling us something.

Popular mindset strategies for ‘smashing’ or ‘breaking through’ your creative blocks and limiting beliefs
Conventional writing courses that presented a paint-by-numbers, Save The Cat kind of approach - and it just sucked all the joy out of your writing
Forcing yourself to sit down in a chair to write, only to find yourself hours into a bucket of ice cream and a YouTube marathon of writers' interviews, convinced to your core that you’ll never have something as good as theirs
Trying to drop the idea of being a writer, or exploring your memories and feelings in writing, but there's a creative voice deep inside you that keeps calling out
As an embodied writing coach, I see brilliant, visionary creatives who are good at writing - freeze up all the time when it's time to sit down and write something.
Because when we have the audacity to start expressing ourselves, our nervous systems tend to go a little haywire. That's as normal as it is really freaking annoying.
But first, you need to feel safe and supported. Your body needs to feel at ease. Your lizard brain needs to curl up and hibernate for a bit, so you can start doing the true-to-you writing that comes from deep within.
As an embodied writing coach, I adore helping writers, the creatively curious and those who want to write for self-exploration, like you, untangle the feelings of fear, worry and 'not enoughness' that lead us to being stuck in our head and unable to connect with the words deep within our true selves.
And I also love to help you embrace the joy of writing again, and build a sustainable writing practice, so you can source that expressive magic wherever you are.
You love writing, or you want to explore writing as a form of creativity, therapy and self-expression
Are open to learning new ideas about writing and accessing your creativity than you may have learned elsewhere.
Are ready to look at your limiting beliefs, procrastination patterns, creative wounds and the feelings lying under these.
Are eager to explore a more body-led, non-linear form of writing. During .Embodied Writing, we use methods like intuitive movement and holding certain postures in our bodies (suitable for all movement levels).
You prefer doing things your way to cookie-cutter approaches and like to go deep when it comes to your writing and your dreams
You've always felt like you've had a story to tell - for yourself or to a wider audience - and you'd love to find your unique voice
With a different copywriting topic every two weeks, these group classes are where you can ask all your burning questions. And you'll have
You can bring any burning topic, issue or desire to your Wild Dreamer session, which is between 60 and 70 minutes long.
Clients often use Wild Dreamer sessions to explore:
Feelings of imposter syndrome, limiting beliefs and doubting their own authority as coach (despite their experience and credentials)
Fears about stepping out as a coach and sharing their message
Worry about expanding or pivoting their business
Procrastination patterns (like finding yourself furiously cleaning the house every time you need to sit down and write)
Comparisonitis (spending an hour looking at other coaches’ websites rather than working on your own, making you feel ‘not as good as them’.)
Creative and mental blocks
Struggles with boundaries or roles in business or family life.
A desire to incorporate more ease, fun, connection, joy or play into your life and business
… And anything else that’s going on for you, even if it’s not strictly business related. Because as an entrepreneur who juggles many roles, chances are, if it affects you, it affects your business and copywriting.
Here’s where you’ll start to play with creating your own copy, in between one-on-one coaching calls with me. I call my resources ‘recipe books’ because I’m a creative cook and there’s always a way to do things differently for even more delicious results.
But in order to break the rules well, it’s really good to know them first. My self-paced writing prompts and resources are aimed at giving you a thorough grasp of ethical copywriting rules AND how to apply (bend / break) them to your unique business.
And they’re aimed specifically at working with coaches, healers and therapists, so you know your time and money is being spent on something that’s tailored to you .
...From me, a professional copywriter with 20 years’ experience for the duration of your coaching membership (give me five working days to get back to you).
Sharing your writing can be really freaking hard. I’m all about pointing out what you do really well, and making gentle suggestions for where things could be clearer for your ideal audience. I always want you to sound like you, and speak your clients’ language.
These self-paced audio resources are tailor made to help you drop into your body. Using Embodied Movement practicse, you'll gently move through any resistance that arises in your writing practice.
You’ll also learn to write from your body and edit from your mind, with a calm nervous system - and why we don’t edit and write at the same time.
My gentle movement practices are suitable for any ability.
If you want to set some time aside for your writing and love the accountability of a set time, you’ll love the Writer’s Cave.
Here, we write from the body and edit with calm nervous systems - but never at the same time.
Usually $20 (NZ) a session - that's about $13 (US) - this online co-writing group is free for all coaching members.
One of the perks of getting to know your business inside out, is that it gives me oodles of ideas for topics you could be creating content (blog posts, newsletters, social media posts, videos and podcasts) about.
My clients love the ever-growing list of content topics I share with them and how it helps them share their message while providing great value for their clients.

During our time together, we get laser clear on your unique message. So yes, you’ll be able to write about it very well. But also: next time someone invites you on a podcast or asks what you do for a living, you might find you’re also able to talk about your work with more ease, clarity and confidence.

You prefer a traditional, craft-based approach to copywriting.
Are only comfortable with a linear, head-based approach to one-on-one coaching. We do that too, half the time, but we also delve into the rich insights your body and feelings have to offer.
Expect to be done with marketing once your website copywriting is done. While having a wonderful website makes for a fantastic start to connecting in a real way with your dream clients, it’s only part of the marketing equation.
Want me to do your writing for you. I’m here with expert advice, unlimited edits, one-on-one coaching and to be your cheerleader. But I won’t be doing the writing part for you - that’s a whole other coaching package.
"Danielle is a skilled practitioner in the realms of embodied expression & creative writing. If you're seeking a Feminine Embodiment Coach to help you express your most potent self while relaxing any resistance that might (inevitably) arise along the way, I'd highly recommend working with Danielle."
"Danielle is a master at her craft. Although opening myself up for critique to my website copy was extremely vulnerable, Danielle lovingly gave feedback that strengthened and aligned my content. I would highly recommend working with her if you are looking for guidance without sacrificing your unique expressive flair."
"Coaching with Danielle was hugely helpful for me. I came to her in the sticky process of creating change in my business, moving in a new direction and battling with the discomfort of starting from scratch. I gained clarity around letting go of my old business name and leaning more deeply into working under my own name - something which terrified me - while nurturing myself through the process. I'm now getting ready to build a new website in my own name! Thank you Danielle, so very grateful for your support."
