Being the Magic
of Your Story
Revisit your story through the courageous compassion of the Dragon Heart to guide you in your path moving forward.
Join Melanie and Mary Jo for a 2-part Alchemical Journey of Remembering and Reclaiming Your Magic!
Part 1:
Embracing Your Magic
Rewriting your Story to Create Meaning from the Past
and Embrace the Wisdom and Gifts Within
A 4-Session Alchemical Writing and Reflection Workshop Series - Online via Zoom, Tuesdays, Sept. 9th, 16th, 23rd & 30th, 2025
Honor your journey. Rewrite your story. Remember your Magic.
You’ve crossed the threshold.
You’ve endured the loss, faced the unexpected change and you're ready to make the leap...
But you're still holding back...
You are no longer who you were — and not yet who you are becoming.
You’re in the liminal space… and it feels both full of possibility and clouded with doubt, grief and questions.
What expectations, emotions or dreams are you still hanging onto that makes it harder to move forward?
What beliefs about yourself and the world keep whispering “you should…” — and weighing you down?
Where are you hiding your own Magic?
This is where you learn to trust your own wisdom and intuition.
This is where you rewrite your story — not by erasing the past, but by seeing it through the lens of courage and compassion.
The oNLINE workshop:
What You’ll Experience
In this 4-part writing, reflection and inner alchemy journey, Human Design facilitator Mary Jo Rathgeb and sound alchemist Melanie Adrianna guide you through an heart-led process of honoring and rewriting your story — so you can carry its gifts forward into your next new chapter in life.
This is safe, sacred container where you have the option to share in an intimate group.
No previous writing experience is needed — just a willingness to be with your own story.
The Journey: Session by Session
Session 1: The Story So Far — Honoring and Witnessing
Explore where your story begins, and reflect on the full arc of your journey. Name the changes, losses, desires and resistance that shaped this chapter of your life. Write your unedited story as it happened, and begin to witness yourself with compassion.
Session 2: The Hero Emerges — Alchemizing and Rewriting
Identify the emotions, triggers and limiting narratives embedded in your story. Experience a guided somatic release through sound and meditation, and begin to reframe your story — claiming the wisdom and gifts hidden within it.
Session 3: Embodiment of Your Gifts — The Road Back Home
See yourself through a new lens of appreciation and compassion. Integrate the old chapter with love, create a symbolic representation of your gifts and rewrite your story’s title from this empowered perspective.
Session 4: Closing the Chapter — Integration and Release
Share your insights and writing experience in an intimate, supportive circle. Integrate your journey, and leave feeling lighter, wiser and ready for what’s next.
Who This Is For
This workshop is for you if:
✨ You want help navigating the ambiguity of the in-between space — with self-trust, intuition and grace.
✨ You no longer wish to identify with the story of what you lost, but rather embrace the gifts and wisdom that you've discovered along the way.
✨ You're ready to come out of hiding and embrace the magical being that you are!
✨ You are looking for facilitated guidance and an intimate community of support in a safe space to rewrite and share your story if you choose.
