Writing Your Resilience: Building Resilience, Embracing Trauma and Healing Through Writing
The Writing Your Resilience Podcast is for anyone who wants to use the writing process to flip the script on the stories they’ve been telling themselves, because when we tell better stories about ourselves, we live better lives.
Every Thursday, host Lisa Cooper Ellison, an author, speaker, trauma-informed writing coach, and trauma survivor diagnosed with complex PTSD, interviews writers of tough, true stories, people who've developed incredible grit, and professionals in the field of psychology and healing who've studied resilience.
Over the past 7 years Lisa has taught writers how to write their resilience. Each time her clients and students have confronted the stories that no longer serve them, they’ve felt a little safer, become a little braver, and revealed more of their true selves. Now, with this podcast, she is creating a space for you to do this work too.
Equal parts instruction, motivation, and helpful guide, Writing Your Resilience is an opportunity for you to join a community of writers and professionals doing the work that helps us cultivate our authenticity and creativity.

Hi Lisa, today's episode was exactly what I needed to hear. I am so thankful for your podcast as I navigate challenges during the revision process for my memoir. With all my love and gratitude❣️ ~Adhara
Wow. I just finished this podcast and it was so enlightened, and it made connections for me for so many broken paths in my life that I am trying to heal through the writing of my memoir, I am really excited to have randomly chosen this from your list of episodes today! I just wanted to say thank you! And I will be listening to it over and over, and digging deeper into Jacob's work. I have been writing my memoir over the last nine months or so, and dealing with a ton of repressed trauma from my childhood, and doing it all on my own, like I have dealt with EVERYTHING in my life, and so episode was just so enlightening, is the best word I can find to describe it. I just wanted to say thank you for your podcast. It is my new self help drug, lol.
(Do not remove) Lisa-I'm watching the episode with Hannah Sward and she just mentions a piece you wrote in Huffington Post a while ago. Could you please send the link? Thanks!
Lisa, the podcasts lately have been extra fantastic. Sarah Perry, Tia Levings and Dr. Roumani on narcissism have all been full of meaning and wisdom. Thank you! —Mary Austin
