Just send me an email: [email protected]

This summer, I'm hosting a playful and peaceful journaling challenge. I've called BuJo By The Sea. 

This is for you. You'll get six weeks of gentle prompts plus a cozy space to share and reflect with fellow creatives in the Ja, Wol Community – if you choose so– you can also get these prompts just in your email box. It starts July 19th, and you can sign up through jawol.myflodesk.com/bujobythesea
