Do you like to journal?
What if writing could be your guide toward spiritual evolution?
Your journal practice could help you clarify your thinking, drop limiting beliefs, and connect more deeply to yourself. You just have to do it in this way . . .
My guest, Maria Iliffe-Wood, and I discuss writing from clarity. This conversation is for writers who want to improve their writing. It is for those who want to write more with fewer inner blocks.
Listen if you want to write from your soul.
Learn to write with a higher intention. Discover how you can approach the page in an open and curious way.
Writing can be your best friend.
Maria Iliffe-Wood is a British author whose daily writing practice has been foremost in her life for many years. Writing, for her, is more than craft—it is a way of making sense of the world, a source of resilience through dark times, and a means of connecting with others on the deepest of human levels.
She is the author of four books and a contributor to three anthologies.
Maria is the founder of IW Press, a partnership publishing company established in 2020, and teaches Jack Grapes Method Writing alongside Jules Swales.
She has supported and published multiple books, guiding writers from dream to finished manuscript. One writer described the process as “finding their wings.”
Maria believes that stories, whether poetry, memoir, or fiction, have the power to heal, inspire, and connect us. Through the work she does with IW Press, she champions the voices of those who feel called to write, ensuring their stories find their way into the world.
She leads multiple writing workshops coming up in the new year. Find our more at https://www.julesswales.com/class/entry-level-class/
She will also be doing the Writing from Mind class again in 2026. I will be there. Please join us!
