We’re finally out of eclipse season and Mercury Rx, and this week brings a much-needed tonal shift in our energetic environment. Venus and Mars both change signs, and both are entering their home signs (Taurus and Aries, respectively) where they are most resourced and empowered to really Do The Work. Any projects you have in process should feel very, very different come end of week.
Also also also. Today is the last day (!!!) to sign up for the next session of Showing Up to the Work, which begins tomorrow, Monday, April 29th. If you’re looking for a built-in schedule, an accountability group, the support and camaraderie of other writers, or a deadline, this group is for you. We meet 3 days a week, 2 hours per session, and we get shit done.
This is what past Showing Up cohort members have shared about their experience:
This container created a generative space that spilled out into every part of my life. With this group and space for accountability, I worked through giant structural changes in my project and I was suddenly prioritizing my writing by setting those often elusive boundaries on my time in order to work. It's always true that to write, you have to just sit down and do it, but this container made it easier to come to the page day after day. — Laura Guidry
I'm someone who works best with community accountability. Jeanna offered Showing Up to the Work at exactly the moment I needed it, and I was able to finish a complete outline and initial synopsis for my entire book over a month before I thought I'd have it done. I'm in such better shape preparing for the next stage of this project because I participated in this container, and I can't wait for us to have another round! — Shelly Jay Shore, author of Rules for Ghosting
Showing Up is a practice. Jeanna creates a gentle container of intention & community, a space to show up to the solitary work of writing. As someone who periodically struggles with maintaining a regular writing practice (or any regular practice tbh), Jeanna's magic lies in offering a practice of accountability that feels generative, rather than punitive. Downright lovely; what a gift. — Ames Wilder
And now, for the week ahead!
