About me

I’m Rebecca – a creative wellbeing coach and writer based in Spain.

As well as writing about wellbeing, ecotourism and Andalusia, I’m also the author of two Teacher’s Guides for English Language Teaching.

I’m a qualified coach facilitating creative wellbeing workshops. And, I teach English for Academic purposes and proficiency in English communications skills to speakers of other languages.

What’s a creative wellbeing coach?

I run creative writing for wellbeing workshops. What does that mean? Basically, it’s a writing workshop combined with coaching. The aim is to guide participants, through writing, to have fun, challenge their thinking and write without fear.

Why? Well, there´s something intensely satisfying about writing for the sake of writing. But, it’s not just that. Magic happens. Thoughts come out that you weren’t expecting, leading you to self-insights that help overcome blocks. You find what’s right for you. You get an inner feeling of ‘knowing’. In turn, this makes you feel more confident. And, confidence means you find a way to move forward. It’s like self-coaching on paper.

I have always scribbled. For me, writing has often been an outlet for negative emotions. Or, if I needed to make a difficult decision, I’d write about it. But, one day I realised that writing is more than just an outlet. It can also be a powerful way to move forward and overcome blocks through self-reflection, learning and growth.

What can we learn about ourselves through writing?

Writing can serve not only to enhance our self awareness and think more creatively, but also through what we learn about ourselves, our reactions and behaviour, it can enable us to change our behaviour and grow in confidence.

Our words can encourage us to reflect, empathise, laugh or cry; sometimes all at once!

Writing in a group enables us to resonate with and learn from others and in turn, bring about personal growth. It can be inspiring, enjoyable, challenging, rewarding and most of all, a catalyst for creativity and change.

If you have ever felt stuck wondering what to do next in your life or you don’t know what you want, why not pick up a pen and join us?
