Write Your Story with Ally Fallon

ARTIST OR PSYCHIC?

What is actually happening when you write / paint / sing / create? Are you simply dreaming up something in your brain and making it material?  Or are you reaching beyond the mind to something harder to explain or understand?    In this week’s episode of the Write Your Story podcast, I share a story that I’ve only told to about three people before today. And the reason I’m sharing the story is to demonstrate the power of a tool like writing—or really any creative practice. I’ve said a thousand times that writing is about more than just publishing but I don’t think I have accurately articulated what it actually is about.   A few weeks ago, something happened that illuminated the “why” behind writing for me and I felt an urgent need to share it with you.  What if your writing isn’t just about finishing a book or getting published? What if writing isn’t only about expressing your thoughts or feelings? What if writing is a way to get in touch with wisdom beyond yourself?

We are all creating the stories of our lives each day. Sometimes it’s hard to believe in a happy ending when were in the middle of chaos – or to understand the transformation we are undergoing when we're being tested over and over again – but I believe we are all here to learn, grow, and discover more of who we are in this life and I want to help you do exactly that. Let’s uncover the meaning of our stories together. The stories we tell ourselves about our life matter – and only we have the power to edit, upgrade or re-write them altogether. Only we have the power to become the hero we want to be. Only we can change the narrative of the story we’re telling ourselves. If we’re sick of being the “girl who got dumped” or the “guy who lost his job” or the “villlan,” the “helper”, etc — what choice do we have? We get creative and we write a new story. As a bestselling author, I’ve learned the principals that make stories tick and I've taken many of my life stories and put them to paper. What I have learned is that stories have a lot to teach us about what matters in life; and that one of the most powerful things you can do to heal is to face your story head-on. To co-create the ending. To uncover the thread that holds the whole thing together. To become the hero you would want to see on the screen. I’ve taught many others how to do this and I want to share these insights with you, too. Everyone wants to make meaning of their story (me included) and it’s never too late. You can become a completely new person with a whole new story in just a few short years. So let’s go on this journey together. Come with me as we explore how to become our authentic selves and live our true stories. We’ll explore personal growth, self-help, psychology, spirituality, and so much more. It’s never too late to rewrite your story.
