My Story

Peek Behind the Pages

My name is Bonnie, a 26-year-old writer from Devon, England, currently living in South Wales with my daughter, soon to be starting our new adventure in Yorkshire, where my roots are from.

I have a burning passion for creating new worlds and capturing raw human emotions through the power of story.

Writing has been a part of me since I could hold a pen. I feel the world around me and within me with a deep sensitivity. I find refuge within poetry and the natural world, and you will find these themes weaved through my work. I'm extremely passionate about holding space for children to be emotionally regulated and wise beyond their years, as well as supporting parents to embody a child-like play and wildness that has been silenced by society.

Since becoming a mother, I have been broken wide open in ways that only writing can understand. This transformation into motherhood has triggered my inner child, and created a burning passion to halt the trauma-cycle for the next generation, through collaborative parenting and soothing the wild roots inside of us both.

Alongside my writing endeavours, I’m a Hypnobirthing Teacher, and a Relax Kids Coach teaching emotional regulation techniques to children and parents. I am in the process of creating mindful motherhood groups and writing circles. To find out more, you can find my sister website at: www.wildlyrootedwoman.com

Drawing from my experiences with childhood trauma, counselling, nervous system regulation, forest school, and as a birth worker, I aim to create a space for parents and children to reconnect to their inner and outer world. To the vibrant and wild world that lives within us all.

The Power of Sharing Your Story
The Power of Sharing Your Story

Humans have been sharing their stories since the beginning of time. We would connect with our ancestors as we gathered by a fire out in the wilderness, singing songs and creating with our bare hands.

My Story
My Story

At a young age, I learnt that the stories that live inside me could be turned into vast new worlds, as a way to bridge new connections with myself and the world around me, and as a way to create beautiful art out of my pain, my experiences, my dreams, and imagination. There is a whole world inside of us all, and I’ve been turning those worlds into stories since I could hold a pencil.


Honouring the Many Seasons of Your Emotions, Alongside Your Children
Honouring the Many Seasons of Your Emotions, Alongside Your Children

Becoming a mother has been my greatest teacher in understanding the importance of honouring emotions as part of our human experience. The raw and truthful expression of a child reminds me of the beauty in simply feeling without judgement and being joyful for the sake of joy. When we deny children the space to express their emotions, we teach them to fear the depth of their human-ness. But when we walk with them throughout each season, we empower them to navigate life’s ups and downs with authenticity.
