Getting me back on track
I love(d) journalling and was so uber consistent for years and then I had kids... My youngest and last is now a whopping 10 months and I still haven't been consistent. However it has been more consistent than it was all thanks to Tamara's group and the prompts. The daily prompts (for premium members) have been fun, low pressure but still deep and eye opening. So fun in fact that I actually traveled to go meet Tamara in person with my youngest so she could meet the trouble maker keeping me tired. She was super lovely in person and we have plans to do that again. Especially if she ends up in my neck of the woods. And I can share when I want as much or as little without pressure. Plus using gifs in the community is fun too.

Noob Journal-er?
I am a total noob to journaling. InkConnections provides a space that creates space for all levels of experience. With daily prompts, a warm energy, tips, & tricks, I'm finding that journaling is not just a hobby... but an excellent practice that helps me to understand myself, my relationships, and even my business on a much deeper level.

Journaling community with high potential
I have been part of different journaling communities for several years now. But Tamara is different. It is obvious how much passion and effort she puts into creating this community. She is very active and engages with the community members daily. You can feel how much she cheers and cherish the people of her community. It is a safe, comfy online space which I can´t wait to see how it grows.

Such an Empowering Space!
I love being part of this community which values authenticity while also holding space for safely exploring. Frameworks encouraging personal exploration without judgement from ourselves (our worst critics) or others. Alli is funny, raw and so profound

The Village Becomes Your Home
What I love about Written Identity, or "the village" as it is lovingly referred to, is that the founder, Alli, genuinely cares about the people in this group. She isn't looking to grow the village just so she can profit; it's about connection, the writing journey, and being able to express your feelings, no matter how ugly they may feel in the moment. The village is also special because of the amount of support. There is no competition here; only love and cheerleading. Anyone looking to rebuild from a place of sadness, depression or complete devastation will find "Written Identity" a safe place to land and start over. Zero Burnout, zero nervous system overloads here. But having said that, you don't HAVE to be sad/mad/burned out to benefit from the village. Literally anyone who just wants to write but might need prompting or reminders or someone to say "your voice is valid" will also love Written Identity. You can come as you are, and we will love the entirety of you in the village :)

Find Community & Yourself
From the very first prompt to now, this community has been such a beneficial place for me to learn, express and grow. Alli has created a wonderful space and environment to share that feels like a real community despite being all virtual. Written Identity has helped me to step into my purpose and stand true in my identity. Alli’s 1:1 mentorship has also helped me tremendously in my pursuit of writing professionally. Her insight and knowledge has been an asset to my growth. If you’re looking for a sense of community and an introspective approach to writing and finding your voice, this is the place to be!
