Naomi sat me down and nurtured out of me ideas I didn't even know I had in me. I had a piece I wanted to write, but little idea how to actualize it. Her technique was very simple and extremely effective. Like a counselor, she asked probing questions which elicited deep responses from me, and these she wrote down verbatim touch-typing on her laptop with the lid down, and not breaking her stride listening to me empathetically and wholeheartedly.
What I admire most about Naomi's approach was being able to deal with the unpredictability and uncertain nature of what was to be discussed. I came to her as an open book and she read it, guiding rather than driving the direction of the conversation. It was a very rejuvenating experience to be heard in that way, and even more illuminating when she presented me with my notes via email just a couple of hours later. Everything I had brought up was presented back to me in black and white - this perspective was so revealing.
Naomi was able to grasp very quickly where the conversation was going and what aspects would be most fruitful to probe. She understood, as did I for the first time, that my personal conclusion was the thing worth sharing. She was able to show me what was already in me, but that to which I'd never given words or any expression whatsoever. She is more than a 'book developer', but also a 'creativity midwife' - very apt because my own conclusion was closely related to the subject of creativity being relational.
Her passion is to interconnect to help people bring forth their inner treasures in some form. Her fascination is with the entire creative process, and takes in many different forms of artistry and expression. Naomi Rose is a true artist in every sense of the word; a consummate professional, a skilled writer & editor and a birther of creativity in those whose lives she touches. read more
