How we’ll flow in a longer writing coaching program…


After we meet for a discovery call and feel aligned with journeying together, we’ll begin our time by co-designing a learning, exploration, and growth plan for your writing + creative embodiment journey.

Dream beyond! How would you love to express yourself? Open your mind and heart. Anything is possible. Anything.

Energetic work is part of the deal here as well, so consider that. What does that mean? Ask in your discovery call.

From your goals and learning plan, we’ll move to understanding your writing style, creative cycles, and our communication style.

Your coach will develop materials for all of your sessions and assign homework between sessions to move you along your path, consciously realigning along the way.

Then, we journey within creation!

Your coach will also review and provide development feedback on your creations each week (should you consent), taking an intimate approach in your development as a writer, your storytelling, and your authentic creative expression.

  • "Having Nkem as a coach was honestly one of the most transformative experiences in my life. Her presence is so genuine, so calming and so fiercely exciting, all that energy transferred to me in the most uplifting and nurturing ways and at the same time challenging, pushing me to delve deep and bring out the visionary in myself and future creations."

    Nicola

  • "Through her deep questions and poignant insights on the world, Nkem helped me unlock aspects of my writing I didn't even know were blocked. This was my second round of 1:1 coaching with her, and I feel my practice has truly deepened. She has helped me feel confident to freely express my emotions through creative non-fiction, and she has helped me build the confidence to start writing a novel. I still have a long ways to go with my novel, but she got me going, and I will be forever grateful. If you have the chance to work with Nkem, do it! Nkem will help you get to places you didn't even fully know you wanted to go. Throughout the process, she'll support you in her unique, intuitive, goddess-like way, always one step ahead and cultivating a space for you to flourish."

    Marie

  • “I thought my manuscript was done, but working with Nkem opened my eyes to all the areas where my writing came up short. Her criticisms were direct and constructive, with clear suggestions on how aspects of my story could be improved to deliver the impact I was seeking to have on my readers. I loved how she immersed herself in the story, and deeply understood every plotline and character arc. I think this is what makes her especially effective at what she does. It truly has been a fruitful working partnership.”

    Zubby

  • "My intention for working with Nkem was to deepen my writing practice/ritual/expression, get to know my personal writing style by exploring different forms of writing, and create pieces of work I'm proud to share - all of which I achieved and more. Nkem is highly gifted as an intuitive, as an intentional being who is embodied in what she teaches, and in her ability to weave the mind, body, and soul into the expression and practice of writing and how she teaches it - with a welcome dose of playfulness! I deeply appreciate intentionality, care, thoughtfulness, adaptability, and reliability and Nkem demonstrated all of these qualities through my entire experience with her. She generously goes above and beyond in providing tools, resources, knowledge, wisdom, and feedback. My work with Nkem stretched me to commit to myself and my writing, befriend and work through my self-criticism, reveal my authentic voice, and step more fully into my power and expression - all while having fun! If you feel the internal knowing and call, I highly recommend working with Nkem on your writing journey."

  • "Meeting Nkem and having her as my writing coach was one of the best things that happened to me and to my writing in 2021. We connected immediately and her enthusiasm, energy, joy, and presence proved contagious. Even before we began our coaching engagement, Nkem was fully focused on me and my needs as a writer, and this attention allowed her to create a wonderful coaching program that was brilliantly tailored to what I desired and needed. She helped me learn about, understand, and test different writing styles and genres, and she lovingly and gracefully empowered me to (finally!) begin my novel, proving to be one of the best accountability buddies I've ever had the pleasure of having, and providing me weekly with generous and insightful feedback. Being coached by Nkem has made me a better writer. I'm really looking forward to working with her again in the future. If you're considering her services, I urge you to say yes boldly – you will not regret it!"
