Rewrite & Rise: Your Voice. Your Power. Your Becoming.
Welcome back to The Authentic Creative. In this special panel episode, “Rewrite & Rise,” we explore the transformative power of rewriting our stories to rise into alignment, joy, voice, and soul.
Host Siri Baruc Thornton opens with a breathwork-infused circle and invites a circle of powerful women leaders: authors, healers, creatives, doctors, doulas, coaches, and performers, to share how they’ve each rewritten their own story and reclaimed their wholeness.
We explore:
✨ Releasing inherited belief systems
✨ Embodying worth beyond achievement
✨ Trusting the spark of “something more”
✨ Honoring the wisdom of the body
✨ Giving birth to new identity through challenge
✨ Finding healing in nature, sound, community, and voice
