I run workshops, programs, and events all over the country. Sometimes in a big flashy ballroom. Sometimes in a living room. Often from my apartment. And every one of them is geared to help you access your best work—in a criticism-free, judgment-free environment. There are lots of ways to participate, some in person, some virtual. Check them out and let me know if you’ve got questions!
"Terri Trespicio is a born leader. She is an incredible facilitator. I'm in awe of her ability to pick up on what a group needs, take the reins, and deliver it. I’ve watched her work, and she carries herself with incredible integrity and commitment to those she is instructing and leading. She cares and she delivers, every single time."
Mary Gauthier | Grammy-nominated singer songwriter

The Intensive is a 3-day workshop designed to help you access the stories and ideas—your best, most meaningful work—in a criticism-free, distraction-free environment.
“I felt so safe to read to a bunch of strangers these very revealing and very cathartic words that are coming out of me. I wrote a piece that moved me to tears, reading it. It was such a realization that writing and words can bring out of me things that are still hiding. I felt no judgment. I felt celebrated. That’s an incredible feeling.”
Stephanie Hayes | business consultant and writer
“I really enjoy the opportunity to get people’s reactions in real-time to what I’m working on. In the end, I think it saves time. I’m not going down dead-end streets, I’m going down streets lit up around positive feedback. I know that’s working! I’m going to expand that and release what it’s working. It helps me move the work faster than solitude does.”
Mary Gauthier | Grammy nominated singer songwriter
“I’d said to myself, I'm never going to write my own book. I could never do that. Then I got the first prompt and was put so deeply into my body, and so connected with something bigger, that expectation fell away. I came out of my first retreat doing the exact thing I said I would never be capable of doing.”
Sarah Montana | screenwriter and speaker
“I’ve been an academic most of my adult life. This was one of the first times I’ve written from an authentically personal space. When I read my work and looked up and there were tears in other people’s eyes, it felt so validating. That my work wasn’t just ok but helpful to other people blew my mind. I’m not sure I could have afforded not to invest in myself this way.”
Kelly Knox | retired U.S. military and therapist

"I feel more secure in my voice than ever. I was shocked that in doing it, just jumping in, I received a dose of confidence that is still active."
Casey Chalem Anderson | artist
"I came here not completely knowing what to expect for the day or myself. I was surprised at the depth of work that came out of me."
Miriam Schulman | artist and host, The Inspiration Place
"I was given the greatest gift today. I heard feedback about my work that I could only dream of—that it was witty and honest and smart and i couldn’t have dreamed of better feedback. I feel so much more confident in my writing and ready to get to the next level."
Graciela Rasor | communications professional
"I realized that I’d been hiding in my writing for years. And I hadn’t given myself permission to really be free."
Susan Eckstein | Speaker

Mid-Crisis Messaging for Advisors
Webinar
There’s a reason why financial services firms have a lot of heavy furniture, and no ping-pong tables in the back. Your industry traffics in stability, tradition—not sudden moves. Since the world took a hard left and the markets took a nose dive, you may be tempted to shelve anything to do with your “brand” until things…get better. But that may mean missing a critical opportunity to make the case for why prospects should come to you—and why clients should stay.
The firms that make this moment matter will go from managing the crisis to thriving in its wake.

Rekindle your Content
Webinar + BONUS Writing Session
Fire up your creativity and fuel your marketing efforts.
The pressure to create, and keep creating, content for your brand or business can feel like an overwhelming, endless task. Content is bigger than any single effort or outcome, and it’s more than a platform. It’s about the conversation you’re starting—and sustaining—between you, your work, and the world of people hungry for it. And when you change the way you think about, and craft it, content becomes a fun, and vital, effort, not an extra task.
Stop Searching for your Passion (and do this instead)
Webinar + Writing Session
You’ve heard that to have a successful life & career, you should “follow your passion.” It’s popular advice.(It’s also profoundly unhelpful.) What if you’re not sure what yours is? What if it didn’t matter? The notion that you need to be 100% clear on your passion before you: find a job, build a career, start your life, is not inspiring; it’s paralyzing.
My TEDx talk called “Stop Searching For Your Passion” hit a nerve—and has millions of views. So now what? In this webinar, we’ll talk about why this search is a waste of time—and where to put your focus and energy instead so you can create life and work that matter.
Gateless Writing is a technique of teaching the art and craft of writing that draws on the research and work of Suzanne Kingsbury, a Fulbright scholar, novelist, and one of the most sought-after developmental editors in the country.
I’ve been a participating member of the Gateless community for several years, worked with Suzanne personally, and became a certified instructor in the Gateless method in July 2017. It has changed my work considerably, taken me from no book to a nearly completed manuscript, and profoundly transformed my work with clients.
