It’s time to flip the script on what holds you back and write the story that sets you free.
About The Podcast
The Writing Your Resilience Podcast is for writers and seekers who are ready to transform their hardest experiences into powerful stories—and in the process, reclaim their freedom, creativity, and truest selves.
Every Thursday, host Lisa Cooper Ellison—author, speaker, transformational and trauma-informed coach, and story alchemist—shares tools, practices, and conversations designed to help you release the stories that no longer serve you, trust your creative voice and nervous system, align with your unique design and deepest calling, and write with clarity, courage, and resilience no matter how messy life gets, and no matter the topic.
“I cannot say enough about the Writing Your Resilience podcast. You can tell she prepares for every episode and dives into every guest’s work with great care and preparation, always thinking of what her listeners will come away with.”
