Mentoring Women to Find their Voice
Write their Truth and Finish their Books
If you feel bad when you keep secrets, or when you don’t speak up, or when you conform to someone else’s version of the truth,
If continuing to stay silent makes you feel hurt, small, fragmented, dishonest, or a little bit crazy, you might be a truth-telling writer,
you might be a memoirist, like me and the women I work with.
Hi, I’m Kathleen Hamilton
and I’m on a mission to help women become empowered through the literary art of memoir – whether they write for the page or the stage, for public or for private.
My mentoring methods are a reflection of my style: unconventional, open-minded, adventurous. I guide women on the biggest adventure of their lives – a journey of self discovery to find their deeper truths and write their most intimate, honest and powerful stories, the stories beneath the stories, the stories they most want to tell.
For women like us who have a story to tell, exploring our deeper truths leads not just to creative fulfillment, it’s our path to healing and freedom – our hero’s journey to become fully alive.
I’m a working writer. Writing my deeper truth has changed my life and continues to free me to answer my soul’s callings — the more I write my truth, the more free I am to follow my inner muse – whether to an Italian village, a Greek island, or to a place deep inside.
My clients become published authors, perform their work on stage, and win grants and awards. More importantly, they transform their lives.
When you are safely guided to go deep inside, find your truth and write it, that’s an act of power. When your story is validated by others, you heal. You change from carrying shame and being burdened by silence, to feeling light, free and empowered. And here’s an amazing bonus: your readers transform with you.
Thank you for finding your way to my corner of the internet. I really appreciate you stopping by and I have a free gift that will help you better understand what it takes to write a good memoir, what I call a deeper truth memoir. Do you have it in you?
