Storytelling & Journaling for Belonging, Change, and Becoming
The Road Less Travelled Journal offers guided storytelling and journaling workshops for young people, women, and individuals navigating transitions.
These workshops create calm, reflective spaces where participants can pause, write, and make sense of change, whether that change involves place, identity, relationships, or personal growth.
The sessions are grounded in lived experience, gentle facilitation, and the belief that having language for our experiences helps us understand ourselves better.
Why Storytelling & Journaling?
Change is not always loud. Often, it shows up in new environments, shifting expectations, unanswered questions, or the feeling of being “in between.”
Storytelling and journaling offer:
- A way to process change without pressure to perform
- Space for self-expression and reflection
- Tools for building emotional awareness and resilience
- Opportunities for connection through shared experiences
These workshops are not therapy.
They are intentional spaces for reflection, listening, and writing that support well-being and self-understanding.
Workshops for Young People
These sessions are designed for teenagers and young adults (approximately ages 15–24) and are suitable for:
- Secondary schools
- International schools
- Universities and colleges
- Youth organisations
- Community and cultural groups
What the sessions focus on:
- Identity, belonging, and self-expression
- Navigating change and uncertainty
- Emotional awareness and resilience
- Finding language for personal experiences
- Reflecting on life transitions in a safe, supportive space
Workshops use guided prompts, quiet writing time, optional sharing, and group reflection. Participants are always free to engage at their own pace.
Workshops for Women
RLT Journal also offers workshops for women navigating new seasons of life, including:
- Living abroad or returning home
- Career and life transitions
- Motherhood and changing identities
- Personal growth and reflection
These sessions draw on themes explored in Our Untold Truths and the wider RLT Journal, centring on honesty, gentleness, and lived experience rather than solutions or instruction.
