The honest answer is that it didn't begin with me, it began with a stranger, a poem, and a room full of people learning how to heal. Let me take you back about ten years. I was finishing up a year-long certificate course in narrative therapy at The Seattle School of Theology &#38; Psychology. The whole point of the program was learning how to sit with your stories and find the healing inside them. It was one of the most...]]></description><link>https://www.cathiworkman.com/post/introducing-little-star</link><guid isPermaLink="false">6a193e0bcd05d69352d0ad7d</guid><pubDate>Tue, 07 Apr 2026 07:00:00 GMT</pubDate><enclosure url="https://static.wixstatic.com/media/nsplsh_a3d4023be2a945e1adf9659796acb802~mv2.jpg/v1/fit/w_1000,h_1000,al_c,q_80/file.png" length="0" type="image/png"/><dc:creator>Cathi Workman</dc:creator></item><item><title><![CDATA[Issue 04· March 2026 · Women Worth Celebrating]]></title><description><![CDATA[March is Women's Month, and I spent most of it looking around at the women in my life and thinking "I am surrounded by the most remarkable people." Everywhere I look, women are building, creating, advocating, and imagining better worlds into existence. They're opening coffee shops that become the heart of a community. They're curating beauty and making it accessible to everyone. They're coaching elite athletes and breathing confidence into young girls who need someone in their corner. They're...]]></description><link>https://www.cathiworkman.com/post/issue-04-march-2026-women-worth-celebrating</link><guid isPermaLink="false">6a193d2c145da5e38308bead</guid><pubDate>Tue, 03 Mar 2026 08:00:00 GMT</pubDate><enclosure url="https://static.wixstatic.com/media/901a84_fb8667dbe37341cb9278a4fd270f4843~mv2.png/v1/fit/w_1000,h_576,al_c,q_80/file.png" length="0" type="image/png"/><dc:creator>Cathi Workman</dc:creator></item><item><title><![CDATA[Issue 03 · February 2026 · Black History Month]]></title><description><![CDATA[February feels like an invitation to slow down and really look at the stories that have shaped us, including the ones we weren't taught in school. Black History Month matters to me personally because I believe, deeply, that stories save people. So many of the stories that have cracked something open in my imagination, my empathy, and my understanding of the world, were written, spoken, or lived by Black men and women who refused to let their voices be silenced. I've learned so much about the...]]></description><link>https://www.cathiworkman.com/post/issue-03-february-2026-black-history-month</link><guid isPermaLink="false">6a193c7fcd05d69352d0a982</guid><pubDate>Tue, 03 Feb 2026 08:00:00 GMT</pubDate><enclosure url="https://static.wixstatic.com/media/901a84_288f70126c66453686f391c9f006a6bd~mv2.jpg/v1/fit/w_1000,h_1000,al_c,q_80/file.png" length="0" type="image/png"/><dc:creator>Cathi Workman</dc:creator></item><item><title><![CDATA[Issue 02 · January 2026 · A Fresh Start]]></title><description><![CDATA[I love January. No matter the weather, it always feels like the sun is rising on a new day, giving us all a chance at a do-over. Some people choose words to mark their intentions for the year, others set resolutions or goals, and some simply reflect on where they might be when another year passes. For me, 2026 will be the year I publish my first children's book. There is so much about this that is equally thrilling and terrifying. When I reflect on how I got here, I can't help but credit my...]]></description><link>https://www.cathiworkman.com/post/issue-02-january-2026-a-fresh-start</link><guid isPermaLink="false">6a1925e2145da5e38308873a</guid><pubDate>Tue, 06 Jan 2026 08:06:14 GMT</pubDate><enclosure url="https://static.wixstatic.com/media/901a84_845679eeb1ac417cb89ef6dd109d1c79~mv2.jpg/v1/fit/w_1000,h_1000,al_c,q_80/file.png" length="0" type="image/png"/><dc:creator>Cathi Workman</dc:creator></item><item><title><![CDATA[Issue 01 · January 2026 · Welcome to The Spark]]></title><description><![CDATA[I don't think I fully realized how much stories shaped me until I started writing my own. Some books have marked entire seasons of my life, with certain lines still living in my head years later. Some stories made me feel understood. Others challenged me, stretched me, or helped me see the world differently. I find myself returning to them when familiar feelings or situations arise. Stories are powerful, and whether you're an author or not, the story you're writing with your life matters.
