A 60-MINUTE INTERACTIVE WORKSHOP WITH JEN BERLINGO

Envy as a Compass: Writing the Unlived Self

WEDNESDAY, MAY 13TH AT NOON ET

 

Envy has a bad reputation. We're taught to push it down and feel ashamed of it. But envy is one of the most honest signals we have, pointing directly toward what we most deeply desire and haven't yet allowed ourselves to claim.

In this 60-minute writing workshop, we'll ​turn envy into a compass. Through guided writing and reflection, you'll map the desires hiding inside your most uncomfortable comparisons and begin to hear what your unexpressed self has been trying to tell you -- because in midlife, the unexpressed parts of us get louder. This is the hour to finally listen.

SIGN UP

You'll explore:

  • A personal envy map revealing desires you may not have let yourself name before
  • A new frame for envy​ -- not ​as a character flaw to manage, but a compass pointing toward the parts of you that are ready to be expressed
  • Concrete writing prompts you can return to anytime ​to alchemize envy into clarity

The Pause:

A creative community for midlife women

The Pause is a creative community for midlife women who feel something shifting and want space to explore what comes next. It is a place to write, reflect, connect, and create alongside other thoughtful, engaged women who are asking bigger questions about this season of life. There is room here for honesty, reinvention, and the kind of conversations that do not always happen in everyday spaces. We prioritize our craft along with ourselves, nurturing our intuition and wellness alongside our writing practice. If you are craving depth, momentum, and real connection, you belong here.
