What if you could sit down, slow down, and write a letter to the child you once were? The one who still carries so much wisdom. The one who might need to hear that they are — and always were — enough.

In this intimate writing workshop for women, guided by Andjela and Ella, we explore the connection between our past and present selves through guided writing exercises, childhood photographs, and ceremonial cacao. Together, we open our hearts and write a love letter to the child within us.

No prior writing experience is needed.

𝐖𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐰𝐞'𝐥𝐥 𝐝𝐨 𝐭𝐨𝐠𝐞𝐭𝐡𝐞𝐫:
We open with a guided meditation and ceremonial cacao, held by Ella — creating a warm, soft container to land in. Then, Andjela guides us through a series of writing exercises designed to help you connect with past versions of yourself, listen to your inner child's wisdom, and discover what they need to hear from you — and what you need to hear from them. We close with oracle card wisdom and time for tea and aftercare.

Ella Giljam — Cacao Guide
After over 10 years of working with specialty coffee, Ella discovered ceremonial cacao and was struck by how similar the journey from seed to cup truly is.
