Hi! I'm Ushmi
POET. CREATIVE. COACH
I imagine a world where unbridled self-expression is the status quo
In that world I want visionaries, change-makers and way-showers like you, so fully aligned to your message that nothing stops you from sharing it.
Because you know your message not only matters, but is crucial.
It’s your part to play in the evolution of our collective thinking and you’re willing to authentically share it as far as it will reach.
Which is why you want to capture it in a book.
If you’ve been looking for a way to co-creatively transform your book idea from frustratingly confused and not quite landed to powerfully clear and yes! my book is done,
this is for you.
Spellbound is a holistically crafted book coaching program. It addresses the essentials relevant to you that it takes to start and complete the book your readers will thank you for writing.
Rooted in my signature pathway ‘The Brazen Book Approach’, our work over 9 months includes: working closely to create a deep foundation and overall outline for your book, ongoing 1-to-1 writing coaching and custom 1-to-1 transformational coaching to keep distracting book blocks at bay.
Spellbound exists as a space to hold the vulnerability and courage it takes to write the book you’re being called to write
The book that beats through your heart. Urging you to make big moves in your own world, so you can accommodate it.
The book that asks you to trust it. Even when you don't know when the next words will come.
The book that pushes you to your edges. Asking you to explore the boundaries of your psyche, so you can be true to the truth telling it warrants.
The book that questions your talent. Teaching you how to harness and hold it in ways that are still new for you.
The book that becomes the home for your magic. Allowing you to assuredly pass on the legacy that lives inside you.
The book that is ultimately a reflection of you and your definition of brazen.
HERE IS WHAT YOU GET:
intimate support
TO TAKE YOU FROM DABBLING IN YOUR BOOK
TO CONFIDENTLY DONE.
INTENTION IGNITION
WELCOME SESSION
This powerful meditative experience calls in the magic and sets the energetic intentions for our time together. Using visualisation I'll guide you to imagine, define and declare your true desires for our time together, so you can ignite a potent foundation from which to begin your coaching journey.
OUTLINE AS ORACLE
HALF DAY OUTLINE WORKSHOP
During this workshop we work closely to define the outline for your book. Specifically, we determine its core message, the main themes to be covered and the transformative journey you will take your ideal reader on. The outline will act as a fluid structure to support you when the creative process becomes chaotic, so you have focussed writing direction you can confidently return to.
WRITE FROM WONDER
3 X MONTHLY WRITING SESSIONS
Let's get your writing done! Here we immerse ourselves in the momentum building, co-creative energy of writing alongside each other. First we fire up our creative juices, then we'll spend time working on our respective writing projects. You’ll also have the option to immediately workshop your words with me.
REVIEW & RENEW
4 X REVIEW SESSIONS
At the end of each 2nd month, we'll virtually sit together to review your writing progress: what's been working and what not. We'll also make necessary adjustments for your book writing goals in relation to the next two months, so we can intentionally keep you on track to getting your book done.
ILLUMINATED STRUCTURE
HALF DAY STRUCTURE WORKSHOP
What does your ideal writing practice look like? Together, we'll combine the vision for your book, your current life circumstances as well as your writing preferences to create a bespoke writing practice. One that complements and enriches your life with the satisfaction that comes from steadily realising your writing goals.
CREATIVE COACHING
3 X MONTHLY WRITING COACHING
Bring your writing so I can give you constructive developmental feedback to ensure that it’s consistent with your literary voice and book’s message. You’ll leave these sessions in right-relationship with your words, knowing that they are being cohesively and impact-fully articulated.
TRANSMUTE & TRANSFORM
4 X PERSONAL COACHING SESSIONS
Resistance is a natural but not necessary companion on your book writing journey. Together we'll welcome and recalibrate any inner voices of doubt, fear and inadequacy that stop you from writing, so you continue to be in the forward moving energy of trust: for yourself, your message and your book.

MY PERSONAL MESSENGER FOR
ON-THE-GO ENCOURAGEMENT.
Meet Ushmi
If I had known our childhood passions are the portal to our adulthood professions, I’d have become a writing coach years ago. Instead I took an untraversed path to land me on my career dream.
One that seems intuitively designed to place me as support for purpose-driven entrepreneurs, helping them turn confused and chaotic book ideas into concrete concepts. So they can confidently structure, write and share the visionary message that lives inside them, as a well-written and impactful book.
If I had one superpower, I’d name it as my ability to creatively capture magic and express the language of the formless as form.
I’ve combined that with my corporate experience as a project manager, who successfully spent her days breaking down complex projects into workable pieces, my graduate understanding and deep love of the craft of writing, as well as my own personal experience in self-publishing my first book, to create my signature pathway to writing a book: The Brazen Book Approach.
This approach underpins the work I do in Spellbound. It offers a one of a kind combination that caters to the emotional, energetic, creative and structural know-how that is required to take an aspiring author from doubtfully dabbling in their book writing to assuredly done. Ultimately, so they can impart the meaningful and hard earned wisdom they are here to share.
