How Long Does Healing Take?

Writers will tell you that moving into old stories can open old wounds, especially around loss. That energy resides deep in our bodies, and it comes in waves. The trick is to let ourselves mourn, whenever that happens. Recently, Amy experienced this while working on her next book and reached out on Facebook for support. Fortunately, fellow Master Coach Jennifer Bauer answered the call. They reflect a few days later. Plus Jenn's written a gorgeous new book of prompts for healing through writing.
