About The Writing Flow

If you are a busy woman with an endless to-do list who dreams of finding something fun and personally fulfilling that’s just for you, then you’ve come to the right place.

Imagine if you could carve out a moment for yourself and instead of crashing on the sofa, which often brings little to no satisfaction, you instead did something to explore your creativity, connect to your inner voice and bring to paper the words you carry inside. And imagine experiencing this alongside other women like yourself, being inspired by their stories and sharing your own.

My name is Stefanie. I have rushed my entire adult life. Rushed from a bachelor’s degree to a master’s to a doctorate degree to a postdoc, all while rushing from one country to another. After living abroad for over twenty years, holding a demanding job for over a decade, and raising two small children, I am now living the expat life in a small town in Austria.

This is how it started

Ever since my mum gifted me my first book when I was seven years old, I have loved reading. I discovered the joy of writing later, much later in fact. This is how it started…

A few years ago, I almost bought a plane ticket to escape the overwhelming stress that was consuming my life. I had put everyone else’s needs over mine for too long. I was exhausted and ready to run away from it all. I didn’t buy that plane ticket, but I booked several creative writing workshops. That turned out to be one of the best decisions I’ve ever made. Writing has grounded me, empowered me, and reinvigorated me so I could return to my day-to-day life with greater clarity and purpose.

In 2020, I took the next step by enrolling in a writing coach training program at the writer’s studio in Vienna. And now I want to share with you the experience of joy and empowerment that creative writing can bring to your life.

My dream is to share the major benefits of creative writing with women around the world

My writing workshops are designed to help you explore your creativity with words. With simple exercises and a warm community, you will find space to relax and experience the joy of bringing your inner voice to life.

If you are still asking whether you can allow yourself to spend quality time on you, and only you, then I say: Yes, you can! And you should! The research is clear: creative writing is good for your health, not just relieving stress and decreasing emotional tension, but also improving overall wellbeing and mental clarity. You already know that self-care is as important as caring for others. It’s time to put that into practice.

In my writing workshops, you will learn some simple techniques that will ignite your creativity, allow you to write and share your stories, and enjoy being fully present in the moment.
