Memoir is personal and often includes difficult storytelling. Vulnerability is key but poses challenges. How do we reconcile our narratives with that of others? How do we protect the integrity of our stories? How do we face the risk of offending others? Is there healing to be had when divulging our deepest darkest secrets publicly? Join us to unravel the intricacies of owning our truths in memoir. In this open conversation, we will share tips and tools to gear us up to stand in our truths, empowering ourselves and the stories we liberate.
