FOUNDER/CEO of TheDreamUnLocked: Boutique Coaching for Actors, Writers & Dreamers⁣⁣
⁣⁣

⁣⁣
April is a midwife of genius: helping u give birth to ur dreams & crossing the finish line to ur goals. ⁣⁣
⁣⁣
The DreamingOutLoud Technique from April's Ted Talk: ReWrite Your Story, is the basis of her teaching method⁣⁣
⁣⁣
. • Writing is the way to focus ourselves in the present, on what's working & figuring out new ways to get around old problems⁣⁣

⁣⁣ •Writing is a way to align the life ur living w/the life uv always dreamed about⁣⁣
⁣⁣
• Writing is also how u let go of the BS beliefs u have about what ur capable of.⁣⁣ The DreamingOutLoud Technique allows ⁣⁣u to grieve the losses, forgive urself for past mistakes & weave a new story of how ud like to spend the rest of ur life thriving instead of just surviving.⁣⁣
⁣⁣
HOW I HELP YOU MOVE FROM FEAR TO F🌀CK THIS⁣⁣
The DreamingOutLoud Technique uses writing exercises, a rigorous questioning process & dismantling of all the limiting beliefs u hold that no longer serve u⁣⁣
⁣⁣
Like Kali, the Hindu goddess of destruction & transformation, I help u root out the dead weight so that u can focus on flying. ⁣⁣
⁣⁣
I teach u
How to get⁣⁣
past FEAR ⁣⁣
to F🌀CK THIS ⁣⁣
F🌀CK THIS is that place where even though you're broke & nothing is working & you're afraid of complete failure, you finally decide:⁣⁣
⁣⁣
I'm doing this sh🦋t by any means necessary because JOY is my BIRTHRITE.⁣⁣
⁣⁣
TheDreamingOutLoud Technique is what happens next after F🌀CK THIS
⁣⁣⁣⁣
From escaping the Pork N' Beans projects to Vassar, Broadway/Film/TV & doing the fabulous black expat writer thing in Morocco; I've figured out how to ⁣⁣WEAVE a RICH life ⁣⁣
by RE-IMAGINING ⁣⁣POOR beginnings
⁣⁣
I’ve created a process where u can learn how to change the very fabric of your life. This magic is available to everyone⁣⁣
It's called ReWriteYourStory, the fuel that drives the DreamingOutLoud Technique
