© 2026 Embodied Writing Warrior: Food Freedom, Creativity & Spiritual Reclamation
Description
For the spicy fanfic storyteller, myth-maker, and too-much soul who’s done playing small.
Welcome to the storytelling temple where your body becomes the sacred pen, your healing becomes the plot twist, and your words shape whole new worlds.
This is for the creatives and misfits who feel more seen by spicy romance novels than self-help books.
For the writers, feelers, shapeshifters, and spiritual rebels who’ve always processed life through stories - and are finally ready to write their own.
In this space, your "too much" becomes your initiation.
Your creativity becomes your compass.
And your inner world becomes the map to your most powerful, embodied self.
Here, we don’t “fix” you.
We mythologize you.
We reclaim every shadow and archetype - through the written word, through
movement, through wild emotional truth.
✨ This isn’t just self-development.
It’s sacred storytelling.
It’s fanfic meets frequency work.
It’s personal growth… in eyeliner and plot armor.
You’ll hear episodes on:
🌀 Archetypal Alchemy & Sacred Rage
💃 Dance Rituals & Embodied Identity Work
✍️ Writing Prompts That Rewire Your Subconscious
🔥 Fanfic as Inner Child Healing
🧠 Parts Work & Emotional Repatterning
🧘♀️ Shadow Work + Somatics
❤️🔥 Divine Masculine Archetypes (Rex & Haven are coming…)
Each episode ends with a writing ritual, journal prompt, or embodiment activation to move this work out of your head and into your body.
I’m Kayla MacDonald - writer, mystic, subconscious reprogramming guide, and the bonkers-enough-to-make-this-modality-exist creatrix behind the Divine Daddies Storytelling method.
I’ve alchemized everything from deep childhood wounds to disordered eating to crippling self-doubt using spicy inner storytelling.
Now, I help magical beings turn their healing into heroic plotlines.
Because you’re not just building habits.
You’re building a mythology.
