Talks and Videos
Bridget takes her audience on an immersive, embodied journey to track down their Wild Words and set them free.
‘Wildness’ provides a powerful metaphor for tracking and reclaiming our true nature as instinctual Storytellers. Learn the secrets of bringing natural passion and power to your words. And know how it feels to really flow into your creative process. Evolutionary psychology and body psychotherapy provide a firm theoretical basis for the Wild Words Philosophy. Talks are illustrated with inspiring words from well known writers, storytellers, sacred poets and spoken-word artists.
They are feasts for the senses, body, mind and hearts of the listeners.
Invite Bridget to speak or lead workshops at your writers’, literature or storytelling group, conference, school or festival by sending her a quick message.
For themes and inspiration, check out the Wild Words blog.
Organisations she has worked with include:
