An Ink & Essence Writing Atelier:
The Architect of the Ideal
A Creative Journey Through Metaphor and the Poetic Enneagram
Welcome, writer.
You are invited into a circle of women wordsmiths. This is not an Enneagram workshop. This is a journey into the poetic side of your being. A journey into naming yourself authentically and ethically.
Truly, this is a creative journey into the side of your being that keeps the world in alignment with the highest values of humanity: Excellence, Clarity, Idealism, and Integrity.
All of us embody these values, but there are those who envision their inner and outer world through these higher standards. And we are humans. Perfectionism is unattainable. It is not a goal to reach for. It is not an ideal to strive for. Not at all.
Dear wordsmith, what I am inviting you into is the landscape of the side of you that learned to see herself through the lens of how the world expected you to be. Perfect grades. Perfect behavior. Perfect looks.
I want these mirrors to be shattered. I want these mirrors to be vanished. I want you to never look into such distorted mirrors. I want with all my heart for you to write yourself free of the mirror of perfection and walk with confidence into the terrain of your inner self that holds for all of us the mirror of seeing what is excellent and good in itself for the wellbeing of all.
Because this is who you are. The Architect of the Ideal. Never allow any system, any label, any language to name you otherwise. Look at the wounds of your past naming and labeling and claim your freedom. Your sovereignty. Your independence from an unethical naming.
This is why I am calling you to come forward. To name yourself in a way that aligns with your highest values. I call you to use the magic of your pen and write the world anew through naming yourself with compassion and kindness so you can walk the face of the earth as your true self.
The world is hungry for the natural gifts you embody. And it is awareness that will root you even deeper into your truth and the power of words.
Just bring a notebook, a pen, curiosity, and your creative muse.
The rest we will unfold together.
Spaces are intentionally limited to preserve the intimacy, privacy, and deep witnessing of our circle.
One of our participants shared in our group:
“Thank you, Corina! I feel you have delivered me back to a deep hidden place within, somewhere that had been caved in! You really are an archaeologist. I love this group so much and everyone here sharing this journey!”
Whatever your path, this writing atelier will guide you to uncover your true story of Integrity, Clarity, Excellence and the desire to make the world a better place.
I can’t wait to begin this journey with you. Prepare yourself to be enchanted, to become the archaeologist of your own soul, and to unearth those soul-deep stories that reveal who you truly are and your heart’s calling.
In this writing atelier, you will write and recite your wordsmithing. You will witness and be witnessed. You will be seen. Heard. Loved. Nurtured. Some will cry. We will laugh. We will discuss ideas and grow together. We will name ourself free as we find the golden thread that binds us all together—women rooted deeply in truth, meaning, and purpose.
“Perfection is not attainable, but if we chase perfection we can catch excellence.”
― Vince Lombardi

It is such a privilege and a pleasure to work with Corina. She is an absolute master of her craft. Corina has a way of seeing deep into the heart of the matter, and deep into the soul of the woman. I felt I knew myself better after Corina’s unique mentoring and care than I did after decades of intensive personal & spiritual development. The synchronicities, prompts and confirmations grew frequent while I was involved in the process. Corina, you are unlike anyone I have ever met or worked with. Thank you for being the integrity-drenched, soul driven, insightful and intelligent woman you are. A poet, an archaeologist, an aligned entrepreneur with social conscience & spiritual depth. The world is a better place for having you in it. I feel so lucky to have found you!”

I feel proud of the pieces I created in this space, and feel more confident to access these writing states moving forward, too. Corina holds such a deep and potent s pace, her generous soul essence of care, nurture, and truly, truly seeing you is a beautiful thing; it is her gift, and in turn I received such a gift in the mirror she held up for me.

Corina’s Ink and Essence class was a game changer in my life! Not only did it inspire me to write again, but I discovered deeper layers of myself I never saw before! I felt so alive to have creativity flowing through my pen again, and the only limits were those as far as my heart and imagination could take me! Thank you, Corina, for helping me breathe life back into my writing!

Under Corina’s loving guidance, I’ve uncovered many unseen – “How’s”… How to move through life consciously, with intent and in alignment with my soul and greatest good. The grace, compassion and awareness of this process with Corina has also developed a greater understanding of the methods and reasons of others and has brought forgiveness, awareness and open mindedness to all relationships. I have learned so much about myself and others and so gently! The impact in my daily life has been self acceptance, removal of shame, open-mindedness and the tools and confidence to forge the life that brings me joy, harmony and greater purpose – the life that I deserve. I am forever grateful to have been on this journey with a gracious, embracing and wise mentor. Absolutely life enhancing and highly recommended. Deepest thanks, Corina!
