Kelly Morgan
Hi, I’m Kelly Morgan
Thirty years ago, Julia Cameron handed me a xeroxed manuscript titled Healing the Artist Within. It was typed, spiral-bound, and a far cry from the international bestseller, The Artist’s Way you can buy today.
I made her a cup of tea, and she asked me what I felt about my work. I told her I felt dissatisfied—something was missing. That’s when she said, “You sound like a shadow artist.”
A shadow artist is someone who supports others’ creativity instead of embracing their own. Her advice? Take different kinds of creative classes without worrying about the grade.
I did. And that simple step changed everything. I became an artist myself — a poet, performance artist, writer.
I published books of poetry, performed on stage, and started a business focused on creativity and self-expression. I still help others, as I always have, but now I also honor my own creative path.
Fast forward to today, and I’m still doing what I love— guiding others in living up to their creative potential.
Whether you’re an experienced artist or someone who swears they’re not creative, together we can step out of the shadows and bring your ideas to life.
Life post-pandemic is turbulent, but creativity offers a way forward—a path to self-love, connection, and spiritual grounding. We don’t need more self-destruction; we need more self-expression.
So, if you’re ready to move beyond perfectionism and self-doubt, join me for a workshop or become a member of the Story Gym. Let’s build your life and your art based on your passion. Your creative potential is waiting for you.Hi, I’m Kelly Morgan.

Our Success Stories
“Kelly is why I return to these workshops again and again. They feel safe. No judgment — ever.”
Jennifer Forman
Writer and Coach
“I will be forever grateful to Kelly and the classes that made my book possible. She helped me to wander, to get lost, to take myself by surprise.”
Tom Fields-Meyer
Author
“There’s something so loving about the nurturing space Kelly holds for doing the work. Instead of pushing people beyond what they can handle, she sees beyond their doubts and limitations to what’s possible — until they see what’s possible too.”
Marla Mattenson
Coach, CEO of The Intimacy Experts
“Kelly Morgan is an inspired teacher and coach. What I learned from her stayed in my heart and had a profound effect on my life. She coached me through an acrimonious divorce with one of the most vicious civil litigators in the country. This helped me shift the energy between him and me into the best of friends. Our daughter is thriving positively. I recommend her programs to everyone.”
Serena Scott Thomas
Actress
“Working with Kelly makes me a stronger competitor. Truly, my brain connections have changed. I see myself as more creative and many clients now say to me, You’re so different than before. You do things differently than any of the other groups in the field..” That’s because of Kelly’s coaching and workshops.”
Cindy Haroonian
President of CH Research
“Kelly makes it possible for you to fall in love with writing — again — or for the first time.”
