More To The Story

Today on More to the Story Podcast: Talking Writing, Meditation, and the Long Journey of Memoir with Lori WaldThis week I’m joined by my former client Lori Wald, mindfulness meditation teacher, personal essayist, and author of the Substack newsletter Tuesdays with Lori. Lori and I worked together back in 2020 on a full draft of her memoir, and in this conversation she shares where the project has taken her since then, what she’s learning about structure, and how meditation is woven through both her life and her storytelling.We talk about the nonlinear nature of memoir, what it means to trust your material, how to keep writing even when the book still isn’t “there yet,” and the surprising ways Substack helped Lori find her confidence and her audience.This is a generous, honest conversation about writing through grief, identity, faith, and the practice that helped Lori find her voice.About LoriLori Wald is a mindfulness meditation coach and writes “Tuesdays with Lori, Musings on Life, Loss and Everything In-Bet
