Stories move us to remake our world.

I acknowledge the Wurundjeri Woi Wurrung and Bunurong & Boon Wurrung people of the Kulin Nation who are the traditional owners of the land on which I live and work and the Birrarung (Yarra) River in which I swim. Wilip-gin Birrarung murron. (Keep the Birrarung alive!)

Greetings and welcome! I'm Carolyn Tate and I'm on an adventure to write the stories that move us to remake our world—for women and Mother Earth. I'm a writer, educator and the author of six books including the bestseller, The Purpose Project and Brave Women Write. Through the Brave Women Writers' Circles and Dinners, I help women find their voice and write with purpose for justice and equality. Because your story matters.

Brave Women Write

On facing grief, finding hope and freeing the writer within.

Writing is the most powerful way to face grief and find hope. By freeing the writer within, we free ourselves from the grip grief holds on us. When life becomes dark, writing is the way through. Brave Women Write is a manifesto for women who yearn to write for personal and planetary healing and change.

This book will help you write with more heart, truth and vulnerability. And it will make your everyday life more vibrant, purposeful and joyful.
