Benefits of reading Meg’s Musings
Meg’s Musings provides an authentic voice on writing, creativity and navigating life. Welcome to my (virtual) home where there’s a pot of soup on the stove, a seat at the table and conversation is encouraged.
My Substack explores:
writing and creativity
writing retreats
ups and downs of parenting young adults
gardening through the seasons
nuances of coaching, goal and intention setting
things that life throws at us that catch us off guard.
My vulnerability, oversharing and inner workings of my mind are my outreached hand to you as you navigate life.

Who am I?
I have lived in Melbourne (Naarm) all my life. It’s the traditional land of the peoples of the Kulin Nations. I’m forever grateful that I live here in a place where story has been told forever.
I’m a mindset coach, an editor, and a writer. I work with creatives 1:1 and in group settings like at my in-person and online Retreat with Meg writing retreats and workshops. My stories, poems and essays are published in a number of anthologies and I have a couple of unpublished manuscripts.
My three young adult sons, garden, knitting and art fill my cup.
