Stories, Tools, & Community for the
HEALING CURIOUS
Welcome.
​
My name is Natalie Petersen, and I'm thrilled you're here.
​
I have teamed up with Laura Di Franco, Publisher and CEO, Brave Healer Productions, to produce the first in a bestselling book series, Stories, Tools, & Community for the Healing Curious. The thread that will tie volume one together is making itself apparent as I make this humble call for co-authors and have deep conversations with potential writers.
​
EVERYONE is a writer. Not everyone shares their story. I am honored you are considering the invitation to join me and others in bringing our brave words to the world!
​
Listen and read on to learn about the special mission of Stories, Tools, & Community for the Healing Curious.
Dream big with me.
The Healing Curious book project is my 4th with Laura and Brave Healer Productions. All in, I am now forever connected to dozens of co-authors whose lives have transformed from being a part of such an intentional, heart-based experience. Others will agree in their own way, there is something profound about putting your story to print as an extension of your hand to a yet-known traveler. In coming together to change the world, we authors can't help but change ourselves in the process.
​
The Healing Curious book project is my first in the role of Lead Author. But life has been preparing me for this leap, and it's just one of many I know are in store as I continue to surrender into my best Self.
And so, understand: This is an invitation of a different kind. It's personal.
​
So much so, that I want you to really think about what an expansion of your personal brand could mean for you. Like me, you deserve the possibilities in store.
​
As Laura says, "This is BIG POTATO STUFF!"
​
Are you ready to dream big with me?!?

What others say about...
The Commitment
As our circle of authors comes together, we should be readying ourselves for a minimum level of commitment to promotion, marketing, and outreach around our book. Of course you can do more, but here's the bare minimum. Together, we will touch thousands!
Our Success Together
Holy moley, there is so much in store! If I were asked what are the key factors in realizing the benefits of this project, I would narrow it down to four. I desire to co-create a container that will foster these, deeply impacting our hearts and capacity for love in the process.
BRAVERY
This project will expand our capabilities and give us enormous opportunities for growth and collaboration.
AUTHENTICITY
Your story matters, and the authenticity with which you show up will deliver you major returns!
ACCOUNTABILITY
Whether to our timeline or each other or to yourself, each of us is supporting individual AND group goals.
FUN
Buckle up! The months ahead promise heaps of fun as we meet, create, and partner on our individual and collective success!
We should connect.
