Who says we can't have online retreats?!
COVID-19 is limiting our ability to be physically present in events such as retreats. But maybe... this is our new normal? Starting April 2020, I will conduct online retreats every month!
I’ve been a fan of Trisha’s storytelling approach to travel blogging for some time. I find it honest and refreshing, as opposed to the staid and impersonal writing that seems to have become the norm for blogging in general. I’ve been in a writing rut for a long time now (as what happens when you write for a living), and I’ve been thinking of ways to breathe new life to my personal writing lately. This retreat was a godsend. I’m definitely learning a thing or two from the insights, as well as the prompts. I like being reminded that the stories are there for the taking and being inspired to reconnect with that part of myself again. Most of all, I love the encouragement to own my truth—something that I seem to have forgotten over the years after bearing witness (and sometimes, being a party) to exhausting online fisticuffs. So thank you, Trisha! I look forward to sitting in another one of your other workshops in the not-too-distant future.
I am a very shy person. To attend Trisha's retreat is new to me specially in my home country, we do not follow a lot of Influencers. But her content is very appealing to me I decided to attend her retreat in Hong Kong. It was a l ong shot because I did not know anyone but I went out a different person after it. I thank Trisha for it!
Very good timing to meet Trisha in Tel Aviv! I went to her retreat in Israel and I really loved the energy! I learned a lot as I expected and the best thing about it is that I was able to make friends with the other retreat participants! Highly recommended and affordable retreat! I will do it again!
How to make strangers read your writing/content
Overview
In this 2-day online retreat, we will awaken the writer in you. You will learn how to battle mental block and how to always come up with meaningful travel writing/content. Best of all, you will learn how to make people read your blog. I will also teach you how to find your voice in this saturated online world! At the end of the retreat, each participant will be asked to write their own travel story and it will be published and promoted on P.S. I’m On My Way!
Who is this retreat for?
Most of my past retreats were exclusive for women but this one is for everyone! To make learning more meaningful, the number of participants is limited to 10 people. If you are a beginner, intermediate, or professional blogger/writer, this retreat will help enhance your creativity and write content that people will actually read.
Why should you do this retreat with me?
If you’re a consistent reader of this blog, you know that for the past 10 years, I shy away from traditional listicles and things to do blogs. My shorts stories and excerpts on the road are the reasons why strangers are following this blog and reading stories. Of course, it took me a lot of time and practice to do it but I will definitely share everything that I know with you!
