Dr. Carin LaCount - Writer & Optometrist
I was just coming out of the period of my life that I intended to write about. I was still shaking from the trauma, but I wasn’t going to let that stop me from writing about it. I knew I had more to experience before the full scope of my book would be revealed, but it didn’t matter, I knew the writing would heal me. I knew the work of organizing my thoughts within my experiences would bring me even deeper clarity, not only to the meaning of it all, but also the potential impact it would have for others.
Sam has been exceptional in holding the space for me to align myself and my story with the deeper meaning of it, with an eye on the human spiritual evolution the story will ultimately represent.
Sam’s wise and gentle guidance has given me a whole different way to look at my book. Without her and this structure, my book would undoubtedly be lost and forgotten. My healing would not have had any hope of completion, and my story would have been unavailable to help others. And the worst of it would have been that I wouldn’t have even grasped the fundamental significance of writing and releasing this story: to shift humanity—if even in the tiniest way—to more deeply connect with love and compassion.
Sam’s steady invitation to write from an intangible, sacred space helped to bring out the heart of my book.
