Writing with Confidence

A writespace special event

April 22, 2025

How do you develop the confidence to navigate life’s transitions and take on new personal and professional challenges – such as, for example, the challenge of writing and publishing a book when you’ve never done so before? 

Join international writing expert Helen Sword for this FREE WriteSPACE Special Event featuring Lois van Waardenberg, a self-described “cross-disciplinary thinker, empathetic leader, coach, author, and human being who believes in the power of personal evolution.” In the space of just a few short months last year, Lois conceived of, researched, outlined, wrote, revised, and published Confidence Constellations: Insights and Action for Changing Humans, which then went on to win the 2024 Firebird Book Award in the Personal Growth category — an inspiring example of confidence and courage rewarded. 

In the first hour of this two-hour event, Helen and Lois will discuss how Lois’ own extensive experience of guiding organizations and individuals through transitions and change – and of navigating personal and physical challenges in her own life – empowered her to take on the ambitious project of writing this book. 

The second hour will consist of a hands-on writing workshop based on Lois’ five “Confidence Constellations,” which spell out the acronym MAJIC:

∙      The MYSELF Constellation

∙     The ACTIVATION Constellation

∙     The JOURNEY Constellation

∙     The ILLUMINATIONS Constellation

∙     The COMMUNITY Constellation

The live event will take place on Zoom from 6-8 pm Australian Eastern Standard Time on Tuesday April 22.  This translates to:
