Journal Writing Facilitator &
Wellbeing Coach
I’m Ingrid, a wellbeing coach with a primary school teaching background. I created a journal writing process, Diving for Pearls in 2017. I was going through a tough time and noticed that my journal writing was going around in circles. I knew about the power of journal writing, but I was stuck. I was missing a framework, a step-by-step way of processing my thoughts and emotions. Once I changed the way I journaled, I started to see incredible benefits in my life and knew it was time to share it.
At the beginning of 2020, when the first wave of COVID-19 swept into Australia, the community collectively experienced anxiety and uncertainty. I wanted to help.
The Journal Community was born, a safe place for people to be guided by a step-by-step journal writing framework as they embrace their emotions and learn from their experiences, find answers from within, while connecting with like-minded people.
This community has evolved and includes both live sessions and guided videos. It’s no longer about a pandemic, but ongoing wellbeing. A place for people to be supported as they check-in, reflect and are inspired by their insights.
