‘Working with Roxanne through Ignite and Write was one of the most valuable and enjoyable parts of my journey as a first-time author. She is not only a wealth of knowledge, but also a beaming ray of sunshine demonstrating what it’s like to live true to your values. She provided unwavering support from the very beginning through to editing, publishing, launching, and even marketing my book, Benni: The Best Medicine Has Paws. What stood out most was her authentic ability to hold space during the more emotionally challenging parts of the writing process. This helped me navigate the grief and vulnerability that emerged while telling my story.

My biggest learning was discovering just how healing and cathartic writing can be. Through Roxanne’s mentorship, I learned that storytelling not only helps us make sense of life’s darkest moments but can also be a powerful pathway to growth and connection.

Of course I would love to have a best seller, but my vision for the book is grounded in my values. I would like to help as many people as possible to see the potential for a new beginning on the other side of trauma. I will always be incredibly grateful to Roxanne for helping me to bring that vision to life.’
