Write Your Story, One Memory at a Time.
You don’t need to sit down and “write a memoir.”
You don’t need perfect recall, polished prose, or a clear plan.
You just need a gentle, supportive way to begin.
A Safe, Simple Place to Start
If you’ve ever thought about writing your story but felt unsure where to begin, you’re not alone.
For many women, the challenge isn’t a lack of stories; it’s the fear of doing it wrong, going too deep too fast, or feeling overwhelmed by emotion or expectation.
This path was created to make starting feel:
Safe — emotionally and creatively
Simple — no pressure, no deadlines
Non-challenging — you’re never asked to write more than you’re ready for
We begin by gathering memories, not forcing meaning or structure.
Before there is a memoir, there is remembering.
How This Approach Works
Instead of asking you to write your entire life story at once, this path is designed to help you begin gently, and keep going without overwhelm.
✨
Gather
Memories
We start by collecting individual memories—moments, images, feelings—one at a time. There’s no pressure to explain or organize them yet. Remembering comes first.
✍️
Write
Gently
Short, thoughtful prompts guide you without pushing. You can write a few sentences or a full page. There’s no “right amount,” only what feels comfortable.
🕰️
Move at
Your Own Pace
You decide when to write, how deeply to go, and when to pause. There are no deadlines, no expectations, and no requirement to share anything before you’re ready.
Why We Start with Memory
Your story already lives inside you, in moments, sensations, images, and feelings.
When you start by gathering memories slowly and safely:
Writing feels less intimidating
Emotional weight is easier to manage
Confidence grows naturally
Meaning, themes, and structure come later, after you’ve built a foundation of remembered moments.
This is how writing becomes possible for women who once thought, I wouldn’t even know where to start.
Ways to Write with Gentle Guidance
You don’t have to do this alone. Support is available when and how you want it.
Guided Journal: In Your Own Words
A thoughtfully designed journal created specifically for women in their third act of life.
Each prompt:
Focuses on one memory, moment, or reflection
Can be answered in a few sentences or a few pages
Helps you ease into writing rather than confront a blank page
You write only what feels comfortable, and stop whenever you want.
Memoir Writing Webinars & Workshops (Coming Soon)
Supportive, small-group sessions where you’ll learn:
How memory-based writing works
How to write without self-judgment
How to let your story take shape gradually
You’ll never be asked to share more than you choose.
The emphasis is always on support, not performance.
Memoir App (Coming Soon)
For women who prefer a digital approach, the In Her Words Memoir App will offer:
Short, gentle prompts
Daily reminders that encourage without pressure
A private place to collect memories over time
Designed to fit into real life, not demand more from it.
Is This Path Right for You?
This path may be right if you:
Want to write your story yourself
Feel unsure or overwhelmed about where to begin
Prefer a gentle, guided approach
Want to start with memory rather than structure
Many women begin here simply to see what comes up and discover that writing feels far more accessible than they expected.
A Gentle Next Step
You don’t have to write your whole story today.
You only need to begin gathering it.
