What is a dreamist?
Dreamist is a made-up word that encompasses the heart of being a writer, artist, and creator:
dreamβ’ist (n)
A dreamer who actively brings their dreams to life; one who turns ideas into reality
Itβs someone who combines dreaming with doing. Everything we create begins with a dream, which we take action on so it can manifest into reality.
From dreaming up books to dreaming of a lifestyle aligned with who you are, a dreamist makes it happen.

Who is the writer behind Dreamist?
Hi, Iβm Lindsay, an author of fantasy/romance and a writing coach.
For years, I was paralyzed by creative anxiety which left me with a stack of unfinished drafts and an emptiness knowing I wasnβt living my truth. My self-expression (and dreams) were being held hostage by my fear-fueled creative blocks.
To overcome those blocks, I went on a self-development journey. After experiencing multiple breakthroughs such as (finally!) winning NaNoWriMo (National Novel Writing Month, a challenge to write 50,000 words for a novel in a month) multiple times and publishing a short story, I realized I wanted to pay it forward beyond the writing advice I shared on my blog. In 2019, I became certified in neuro-linguistic programming (NLP), cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) techniques, and multiple areas of life coaching and began working with clients in 2020. In 2022, I shifted my focus to writing/creativity coaching with 1:1 sessions and began hosting group coaching programs in 2023.
I love helping fellow writers fully liberate their creativity and develop stories and lifestyles that are true to the artist within. I launched Dreamist to reach even more storytellers through a weekly dose of inspiration and support.
I hope you find something here that inspires you, empowers you, or makes you feel less alone. Whatever your dreams are, I believe in you.
Youβve got this.
xx
Lindsay
