I know you have about a million thoughts swirling around in your head every single day — and most of them are quietly talking you out of the life you actually want.
Journal Work 101 is your guide to turning those thoughts into your greatest tool. Written by Holly Carruthers, coach for women with big visions, this ebook takes you from "I don't even know where to start" to journalling with real purpose — the kind that helps you dig out your dreams, silence your inner critic, and start moving toward the life that genuinely excites you.
This isn't a guide to keeping a diary.
This is a framework for getting to know yourself on a deeper level, shifting the beliefs that are holding you back, and building the self-trust to go after what you actually want.
Inside you'll find:
How to set up a journalling practice that actually sticks (no overwhelm, no rules)
A full Brain Dump exercise to clear your head and get everything out
Curated journal prompts across 4 key areas: self-discovery, your dream life, mindset, and belief shifting
The Belief Shifter — a powerful framework for identifying exactly what's getting in the way of your goals
Real-life journalling examples from Holly's own practice
The science behind why your thoughts are the way they are — and how 10–20 minutes a day can genuinely rewire them
Whether you're brand new to journalling or you've tried it before and lost steam, this ebook gives you the tools, the prompts, and the permission to go deeper.
Your journal is a guidebook to your best self. It's time to start writing.
