The big day may have come and gone, but you can still get the recording with the membership.
I believe that emotions are your superpower. (I believe that children are our future...lol) Really though, how often have you stuffed your feelings down (or eaten them...), chosen to be "the better person," bitten your tongue and shoved anger, jealousy, nervousness down? Well, where did it go? I believe this unexpressed feeling starts to line your soul and weighs you down as the years go by. You even tone down the happy thoughts--there was a time, I guarantee it, when you would have squealed and danced in celebration and now we're all just too damn well-behaved. Am I suggesting that you act like a child and stomp your feet when you don't get your way or that you hop up and down and sing a song when you make a new friend? Maybe I am. Your preschool self was onto something. Reclaiming your energy happens when all that pent up, locked up, stored-to-process-later emotion is released. And this membership has the perfect balance of live monthly classes to let those dragons fly plus a poetry broadcast to fill your imagination with possibility and wonder. Plus, I'm adding in art, playlists for each sacred emotion, giveaways and more all the time. The Seize the Dazzle of Your Life Membership is a treasure box that you can open and choose whatever inspires you most at that time. Consider this your invitation to the ride of your life. xoxoxo
In plain English: you'll get lots of writing time, cathartic exercises, personal growth, inspiring prompts and poetry. (I pride myself on choosing juicy, accessible, life-affirming poetry), opportunities for emotional healing and unhinged imagination. Plus any other goodies that would be fun!
When I hear Julia read poetry, I feel like I'm taken to another place. When Julia reads, there is an essence, an energy, a juice behind it that I receive at a whole other level. Beyond the words. You can feel her love and intention. You can feel her essence, who she truly is and what she is conveying. It's like you connect with her soul to soul, not human to human.
There is a quiet peace that drops in for me. That is beyond words. I love every moment of it.

Your writing and spiritual guide, Julia Alter, welcomes you into this magical atmosphere of woven word and sacred interior exploration.

Your voice, your spirit, your passion and talent spoke to me - opening my heart to emotions and words that flowed from my soul, through my pen and onto paper that I never thought possible. The magic you created through the “Heart of Creativity” Retreat in San Miguel de Allende will live with me always.
--Seanne, Oregon
Julia has a velvet voice, which takes you to another world, transporting you into the realm of all possibilities. Her calm presence brings you home, reassuring you that everything is going to be Ok, as she holds you in the arms of the mother.
—Eve, California
If you want the private poetry broadcast where I read you my own, often unpublished, raw, fresh uncensored poems, many many many days of the month, subscribe to Poetry a la Mode, my new channel. I'll also read you others' poems that I love.
My poetry appears in the following publications: Blue Moon Review, DMQ (Disquieting Muses Quarterly) Review, La Gazette, Porter Gulch Review, Santa Cruz Sentinel, Calyx, Country Dog Review and in the audio version of Natalie Goldberg’s book, Old Friend from Far Away.
My first collection of poems Walking the Hot Coal of the Heart, was published when I was 28 by a collective press in Santa Cruz. I was honored to be one of nine poets published in that first iteration of Hummingbird Press, which will have published 37 books by 2025.

I will do my best to get back to you soon!
