Short Bio
Author, artist and certified coach Cynthia Morris helps people focus, follow through, and finish their creative work. In 1999, she founded Original Impulse to help artists, writers and entrepreneurs to finally access the creative life they dream of.
Cynthia has published seven non-fiction books and two novels: Her Lisbon Colors and Chasing Sylvia Beach. Her most recent non-fiction book is The Busy Woman’s Guide to Writing a World-Changing Book.
When Cynthia graduated with a dual major in French and West European Studies, she had no idea how to make a living. But combining coaching, writing, art-making and travel, she’s found her true, inimitable path. Helping others actualize their creative destiny is an honor and a pleasure.
Through one:one coaching, online workshops and creativity retreats in places like Paris, Lisbon, and Boulder, Cynthia helps people go from stuck to wildly liberated.
