A Few Testimonials
Whether it’s sprints, a workshop, or a conversation about writing and business, I am always better for having spent time learning from and with Talicha. She puts so much heart and work into everything she offers, and her energy is so uplifting and invigorating. You need to be in her spaces, hear her words, and experience her teaching! - Priscilla
I completely recommend Talicha’s workshop. Not only did I learn about a new form of poetry but I challenged myself and am proud of the new poetry I created. Adding icing on the cake 🍰, I received positive feedback and everyone was really welcoming, supportive and so friendly. Plus I loved the sliding scale with the “ materials only,” option because there’s so many times I missed open mics/events in the past in person, but I didn’t get to see “notes” except via photos or videos of what I missed. - Joy
Talicha's workshop was thoughtfully crafted and filled with gorgeous poems and thought-provoking prompts. She was warm and welcoming and curated a supportive space while providing super useful resources for participants. I highly recommend her workshops! - Lisa
