Memoir workshop: investigation
Topic: Investigation (2 out of 3)
Memoir Alchemy: A 3-Part Workshop Series on Storytelling & Self-Discovery
Uncover the transformation buried in your life story. This workshop series invites writers, seekers, and storytellers to craft memoirs that resonate deeply—through structure, soul, and self-inquiry. Whether you're shaping a book, a blog, or private reflections, you’ll learn how to make meaning of your memories and write with emotional impact.
Memoir writing invites us to see our lives not as a series of disconnected events, but as a tapestry. It allows us to understand not only what happened, but also how we responded—and who we became in the process. This kind of reflection is healing because it offers us something invaluable: perspective. It teaches us that every messy, painful, or confusing moment holds a gift when we’re ready to receive it.
When we map out our life’s key moments and identify the arc of our story, we begin to see ourselves not as victims of circumstance, but as active participants in our own transformation.
SESSION 2: The Depth – Investigation Formula & Conflict Layers
🟠 Theme: Digging deeper into meaning
Every memoir needs tension, truth, and turning points. This session helps you:
Connect cause and effect with “Therefore”
Layer conflict between self, society, and relationships
Peel the onion—move through emotional, mental, and spiritual layers
Use masking as metaphor: what we show, hide, or reveal
✨ You'll leave with a layered map of your story's emotional core and thematic threads.
If you want to explore your story, join us for memoir series workshops. You don’t need to be a “writer” to begin—all you need is a story, a bit of courage, and a willingness to discover the insights waiting just beneath the surface. Together, we’ll weave our memories into something beautiful, something whole. Because healing isn’t just about what we’ve survived—it’s about the stories we choose to tell moving forward.
Join us for a night of inner exploration!
This workshop is part of 3 series that tackle dedicated topics of central theme, investigation, and reframing. No prior writing experience required! You are encouraged to attend all 3 workshops for a more wholesome experience but it's not a prerequisite.
Meet your host - Paula
Paula is humane tech evangelist - she loves building products that help us become the highest version of ourselves instead of enabling addictive behavior.
She is a fiction writer who can turn the most mundane plots into lyrical art forms imbued with emotional resonance. She doesn’t shy away from woo-woo like astrology, human design, or energy reiki modalities as she sees them as tools that help you identify your growth edges.
She lived for far too long in her serious shell and only after tapping back into her creative source, did she find a way back to herself. She loves experimenting with somatic modalities where she constantly pushes the limits of her identity through movement. She runs improvisation & writing workshops where you can find emotional release to piece your authentic parts back together.
