We believe pain can be transformed into creative expression through Artist-Inspired Expressive Writing. To reveal our tragedy is to transform it. Shadow Work is the beginning of bringing the unconscious to the surface. It is only when we have self-awareness that the power of choice is once again returned to us.
We believe connection, compassion, and catharsis can be created through an intimate community of kindred Journal-Artists as apprentices, mentors, pen-pals, and producers.
We believe that the mystery of love will heal the deepest parts of ourselves that have been repressed and suppressed. We believe that expression will transform depression, that anchor will transform anxiety, that narrative drama will transform trauma. We are a community of Artists & Journal-Artists committed to the act of revealing, feeling, and healing.
The Producer’s Playbook is in honor of the Original Producer, Eve, as revealed in the Book of Genesis in The Holy Bible.
In Act One, we commit to acting in faith while facing our fears. We deep dive into Shadow Work, journaling in the first person voice, while being mentored by Journal-Artists who could hold space and provide structure for your process.
In Act Two, we commit to acting in compassion while facing apathy. While journaling in the second person voice, we are trained on producing anti-curses from our noble shadows, also known as narrative reframing.
In Act Three, we commit to acting in grace while in judgement. While journaling in the third person voice, we are trained in the discipline of three folds grace, awakening us to the three folds blessing that manifests through the power of grace and replace.
The Producer’s Playbook will help us integrate our shadows, discern our dual desires, designs, and destinies, and encourage us to choose the desire, design, and destiny that aligns with true love.
In Honor of Eve's Fall
The Producer’s Playbook is designed to help you transform pain into purpose through the power of expressive writing in a Journal-Artist community.
In the process of journaling, you will become self-aware of your dual passions, pursuits, and purposes in life. You will become disciplined, inspired, and encouraged to choose the path of your true passion, pursuit, and purpose in life by exercising your free will.
You will transform your Pain into a Three-Act Tragedy, told in Fiction, Based on a True Story. In the process of writing, you will experience the catharsis needed to move forward in life. You will stop living in the past and worrying about the future. Instead, you will begin living in the present and hoping for the future.
As a Journal-Artist, you will fuse the discipline of journaling with the craft of journalism to discover, experience, and inform your personal journey.

Testimonials about Journaling in Act One
“You have the ability to just be like, ‘you know, this is my truth and if anybody doesn’t like it that’s fine because as far as they are concerned, everything that I’m saying is not real.’ It’s really helpful to know that people aren’t gonna to know what’s real, what’s not real, with what you write. You can release things and nobody will be the wiser about it.”
“I want to go back and explore. Why did it happen when it happened. …Women often suppress their emotions…we think, ‘if I just swallowed that back, it’ll go away,’ and it’s like ‘Nope! Still here.’ and so I think I’m starting to really figure, I can’t swallow that back. I need to let things out.”
“The point of journaling is to really just look inside and be like, ‘okay, what is this? Why am I feeling it? And what do I do with it?’ And that’s sort of what you have to ask yourself when you are journaling.”
Increase Emotional Intelligence: Becoming self-aware gives you the power to break toxic habits, make positive changes, and mature.
Gain self-respect: Self-respect is earned through watching yourself set healthy boundaries, knowing what you like and don’t like, becoming confident in who you are through self-acceptance.

When you repress the shadow, it will become louder and stronger. When you try and destroy the shadow, you will hurt yourself (who is shadow, soul and spirit) in the process. The only way to master the Shadow is to Integrate it with the Spirit. We call this, “Shadow Integration,” and this is the aim of our Expressive Writing Program, also known as “The Producer’s Playbook.”
The aim of a Journal-Artist is to illuminate and integrate one’s Shadow and Spirit so that the Power of Choice is once again returned to the Soul. The Producer’s Playbook is a creative and interactive expressive writing program designed for the Journal-Artist to transform one’s life tragedy into a divine comedy by first revealing the tragedy (the Shadow) in three acts, told in fiction, based on a true story.
As a Journal-Artist, you will journal your past and present through journaling sessions, peer-to-peer mentorships, and workshop lessons so that your shadows begin revealing itself in creative expressions. This is designed to help you discover scenes of your past to inform your present and to help you hope for a better future. It is designed to reveal the duality of your desires, designs, and destinies so you may become inspired and encouraged to choose the desire, design, and destiny of the Spirit that always aligns with love.
The Shadow’s root is fear and the Spirit’s root is Faith.
We all have a shadow to contend with, but it is illusive.
Shadows by nature are shape shifters, both seductive and secretive.
It does not want to be found because its nature is to remain hidden while creating insidious havoc in our lives.
Act One is designed to illuminate the Shadow’s cry.
Rather than fighting or feeding the shadow, our goal as Journal-Artists is to have compassion for and to accept our shadows.
Love works in paradoxes.
The way out is in.
The way for the pain to move away is when we are willing to move through it.
The way we can master our shadows is to become mindful of it.
Only through acceptance and grace can we integrate both Shadow and Spirit together so that the Power of Choice is once again returned to the Soul.
The Soul is the Soul-Journer, the Journal-Artist who chooses.
The way of illuminating a shadow is through a mirror. We all serve as mirrors because we all have shadows to contend with. While it is difficult to see our own shadows, it is relatively easier to see our shadow in another person. Illuminate the Shadow so that our Spirit may integrate with it.
