Write the Marrow: Somatic Writing Workshop
Write the Marrow: Somatic Writing Workshop
A 2-hour somatic writing workshop for women ready to get to the marrow of their truth one layer at a time
Saturday, Sept 19 | 9am PT / Noon ET
Beneath every story we tell is the one we haven't, "can't," or don't know how to.
For many of us, the story we've been telling both ourselves and the world is just the skin.
We know how painful it is to cut deeper, how messy it will get once we pass through the flesh so we stay on the surface. But what happens when we go layer by layer until we get to the marrow? Not all at once but slowly over time. What if we look at writing the truth as a practice that takes patience, care, and trust in ourselves, our audiences, and the community we may not have yet.
In this two-hour immersive workshop, writers Jessy Easton and Rebecca Woolf invite you into truth-telling through a series of guided writing invitations and somatic practices designed to move you from the skin of your story, through the flesh to the bone and finally the marrow of your truth.
With an emphasis on pushing boundaries in a safe, shame-free space, this workshop is designed for women looking to deepen their relationship with the page and expand their capacity for telling the truth of their experience.
Anyone can write the skin of her experience but what is underneath? What is the flesh? The bone? The marrow?

FAQ:
-
No. This isn’t about skill or craft. It’s about truth and capacity. You don’t need a writing practice, a project in progress, or any formal training. All you need is a truth that’s been tugging at you and a willingness to meet yourself with honesty and care.
-
A replay will be available for every session and sent out within 24 hours.
You’ll also receive a short after-care PDF with prompts and somatic practices so you can engage with the work after the session. -
That’s the whole point of this workshop. We’re learning to write the truth one layer at a time through a practice that will expand your capacity to go deeper on the page. The workshop includes somatic grounding, pacing tools, and a clear structure.
-
No. This is a somatic writing space. It’s a blend of nervous-system awareness, emotional pacing, and narrative practice. You’re welcome to be in therapy alongside this work, but nothing in this cohort replaces clinical support.
-
Sharing is always optional. Some women find meaning in being witnessed, and others prefer to keep their pages private. You’ll never be pressured to read aloud.
-
Readiness is not a feeling, it’s a practice. If your story keeps resurfacing, that is the readiness
-
You’ll receive suggested readings before the workshop and simple practices to support the work after, but all of it is optional. Think nourishment, not homework.
