Pink Pangea: The Community Of Women Who Love To Travel

Inspired Living: An Online Writing Workshop
2020-10-18 12:00 - 13:00 (America/New_York)
There is a remarkable power in living an inspired life. This workshop is designed for those of us who love to write, express ourselves in new ways, and are ready to let go of what no longer serves us.
“When inspiration doesn’t come to me, I go halfway to meet it” said Freud. In this workshop, we’ll learn how to do just that.
During the Inspired Living online workshop we will:

Unlock our inspiration through participating in four innovative writing activities
Learn basic tools to get our creative juices flowing
Uncover insights about our past and present experiences
Share our writing with a community of international women writers

After completing Pink Pangea workshops, women have written for major publications, launched their own blogs, or continued to write in their journals. Others have simply enjoyed trying something new. Each participant will receive a recording of the workshop.

Workshop Reviews
“The workshop provided a safe and inspiring space to think about my own writing, and hear from other travelers and writers. I came away with some concrete tools, and an idea or two for future pieces!”
– Rachel Romesburg Rice
“I love traveling. And I love writing. So when a friend told me about the Pink Pangea writing workshop, I went right away. And it opened a new sphere of writing for me.”
– Britta Kollberg
“Participating in an online workshop with Jaclyn Mishal, is the next best thing to being on a retreat in some exotic location with her. Sitting comfortably in my study wearing pajamas and slippers, I felt that I was almost in the same room with her, enjoying her challenging writing prompts and exercises.”
— Naomi Baum
“Pink Pangea’s online workshop helped mediate an important realization. When I sit down to write a travel-oriented piece, I feel stuck. I feel trapped in my home country, when most of my best travel memories are from abroad. However, the workshop helped me tap into a creative atmosphere. It can be all about your mindset, not your physical location.”
– Danielle Corcione
“Thanks for the thought-provoking writing workshop today! I needed to be reminded that to be a writer….we have to write, then write some more. Loved it!”
– Sue G. Sparling Collins
“After finishing the workshop, I felt a sense of purpose and drive, as I knew the immediate steps I had to take to make my blog successful. A week later, that feeling has not faded in the slightest.”
— Sydney Paulsen
“I do yoga, a practice that I use to establish a connection between my mind and my body. Poses and breathing exercises help relax the muscles so that, as the body tension releases, the mind can trail back to a more peaceful state. This workshop was kind of a yoga practice for the creative brain.”
— Silvia Solis

Pink Pangea Workshop Reviews
“This workshop helped me and lit an inner flame, especially as a writer whose passion lies in writing memoirs. Not only did I call both of my grandmothers after this workshop to ask them about life in their 20s, but I took an honest look at myself as my 20s are shortly coming to an end. Have I done enough, have I made my imprint on the world as a woman writer? Are there more stories I have to tell? Thank you, Pink Pangea, for another eye (and heart) opening writing workshop.” — Raquel Reyes
“I came out of it a different person than I went in…[Jaclyn] made us linger in our discomfort long enough to compel us to make a change. In fact, she had to relinquish control in order for it to be a catalyst. That’s a mark of a great teacher.” – Stephen Elliot

EVENT | Courage: A Writing Workshop
2021-05-02 12:00 - 13:00
Courage: from Latin cor ‘heart’.
Courage takes many forms. We struggle with it, in part, because it interrupts our comfort zones. Our routines. Our status quo.
What have your acts of courage looked like? What will they look like in the future? Together, we’ll explore what courage has been – and will be, for us.
“Courage is the most important of all the virtues because without courage, you can’t practice any other virtue consistently.”
– Maya Angelou
During the online workshop we will:

Participate in four transformative writing activities designed to explore our own capacity to be courageous
Uncover insights from past and present experiences
Share our writing with a community of international women writers

After completing Pink Pangea workshops, participants have written for major publications, launched their own blogs, or continued to write in their journals. Others have simply enjoyed trying something new. All participants will receive a recording of the workshop.
