Very useful and cathartic

The workshop motivated me in other aspects of my life.

100% of attendees enjoyed the workshop

I for one have benefitted immensely from the course.

My name is Lisa M Billingham.

I am an author, inspirational speaker, and workshop facilitator dedicated to using the power of storytelling to spark transformation, encourage self-belief, and inspire positive change. I am also a wellbeing coach.

My writing journey began in 2020 with my debut novel, Katie, A New Chapter — a deeply personal story inspired by my own experiences. I never imagined it would one day save someone’s life, but it did. That moment cemented my belief that stories truly can change lives.

Since then, I’ve written for both adults and children. My first children’s book, Sedrick’s Adventures in Hopeland (2024), is a whimsical series of short adventures that encourage young readers to dream big, embrace curiosity, and see the magic in everyday life.

Always open to new opportunities, whether that’s speaking at events, collaborating on creative projects, or partnering on initiatives that align with my mission to get people of all ages reading, writing and living the life of their dreams.

And of course, I run this workshop face-to-face or via video link.

Thank you for reading, and I hope you enjoy the course.
