To let people see past our Instagram filters and straight into our often-untidy hearts takes an act of bravery. Giving people a chance to witness the wildness of our own existence can give them the grace to appreciate their own miracle of their uneven adventure. As storytellers, it’s not our job to impress people with the story of our lives—it’s more about giving the reader the opportunity to embrace the highs and lows of their own journey.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThrough journaling, group interaction, creative exercises, physical movement and hands-on activities, this high-energy experience with poet, writer, and comedian John Roedel provides you with the tools to tell your own story without fear of what the world will think of you. With his trademark comedy, emotive style, and obsession with keeping his presentations interactive, John shares his own journey while offering his wisdom on how you can share yours as well.Writers, storytellers, or humans who want to live and share their lives with more authenticity are invited to join John for this unique writing retreat.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWorkshop Schedule:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSunday Night: Welcome Reception at 6pm\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMonday – Friday: 9am – 4pm\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e*Subject to change*\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Madeline Island School of the Arts","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45599253856396,"sku":"WTVRJR010427","price":995.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0667\/8711\/5148\/files\/John-Roedel-bio-photo_619e8825-261b-41c4-bbc0-c17abef670ca.jpg?v=1736105817"}],"url":"https:\/\/www.madelineartschool.com\/collections\/john-roedel-upcoming-courses-1.oembed","provider":"Madeline Island School of the Arts","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
