The Sacred Unspoken:
Truths Your Soul Refuses to Silence
with Mirabai Starr
January 11, 2026 | 11am-12pm Pacific | Free Virtual Gathering
Event recording available to registered participants
Set your voice free and quicken the aliveness of your story
What if the words you're afraid to speak could become medicine for your soul, and for the world?
Writing your story is alchemical. When you allow your experiences to flow from memory bank to page, you cast the lead of personal experience into the flames of creativity and they are transmuted. A golden elixir spills into the world and the senseless begins to make sense. The catastrophe reveals its quiet beauty. The seemingly mundane is imbued with luminosity.
Your personal story, told in vibrant detail, becomes a portal for everyone's story. We find ourselves in each other. And yet, so many of us silence our truths before they ever reach the page.
Maybe you've convinced yourself that what happened to you doesn't really matter, that no one would be interested. Or maybe you fear that telling the truth will hurt someone else, ruin relationships, or open you up to consequences you can't control.
Here's what's true: The first and most important step is to tell your story to yourself. Bring it up and let it out. Get it all down on that page. Right now, this moment, your soul is refusing to stay silent any longer.
Join award-winning author Mirabai Starr for a free hour of wild heart writing where you'll release the luminous truths that lie buried under the hush of silence and experience the life force that comes flowing in when you tell your story with boldness and authenticity.

What You'll Experience...
Free writing doesn't have to be a matter of dumping your shadow onto the page and stepping away. The beauty of words can open a gateway into greater aliveness. Be specific, be quirky as hell, be daring. Unleash your real voice, your original truth, your lyrical genius.
Beautiful writing has always been a space of awakening. Even as they expand our minds and hearts, the writers we love share their personal experiences with such specific power that it can't help but connect with our own lives. One person's story, told with soul-courage and grounded, sensory language, becomes everyone's story.
The metaphor of alchemy maps onto the process of writing with stunning accuracy.
When you embark on the journey of telling your most compelling stories and your most ordinary memories, your shattering losses and your enduring epiphanies, you are casting the lead of your personal experience into the flames of creativity and they are rendered golden. That is, they reflect light back to you and cast your light out to a darkened world.
Enter the perennial stream of transformational writing and let it carry you.
What Participants Are Saying
"Because of your skillful words, you created a space widening into wonder, awe, gratefulness. Without heavy rhetoric, you butchered fear and mistrust. For me, you brought me to my child-self."
—Mary Lynn
"I realised through this experience the reason that I've avoided writing is because I fear the truth and what might arise if I 'let go.' This time has allowed me to gently peel back a layer from my heart to reveal a glimpse of the truth of who I am and what wants to speak."
—Arlene
"My biggest takeaway was the beautiful guideline-reminder to avoid the abstract. To stay grounded in the body. I've published 11 novels, but this feels more raw and genuine and authentic. I just didn't realize how much I needed it until this exercise."
—Rachel H.
"It was so right to the point of writing, and heartfelt sharing from Mirabai and everyone."
—Suzi L.
"The ritual beginning set the mood for going inward. This is what I will carry forward in my writing process."
—LiDoña
