My Life Story - A Guided Autobiography Series

A scenic landscape featuring mountains, a lake, and a clear blue sky.

If you have been thinking of writing your life story – this workshop might just be the push that you need!

Guided autobiography is a reflective and structured approach to life story writing, allowing you to document your life experiences with the guidance of a trained facilitator. By utilizing carefully selected themes and priming questions, this process helps you uncover memories and experiences that may have faded into the background or been forgotten over time.


Over five weekly sessions, you will engage in exercises that gently guide you in writing about your life and sharing those narratives within a small, supportive group of like-minded participants. The themes explored are both universal and deeply personal, addressing pivotal turning points, family and career, health, identity, spirituality, and the aspirations that continue to influence your journey. Together, these themes create a framework that makes the writing process of life story writing less daunting and more rewarding.


Research into the guided autobiography process has shown that participants often leave with greater self-acceptance, renewed energy, and a more positive outlook on others. Many also report feeling less anxious, more at ease, and deeply connected through the friendships and sense of belonging that develop within the group.

Full Fee: $550* (no GST) After subsidy: $110* 

*Singaporeans and PRs enjoy automatic subsidies under the National Silver Academy. It is also SkillsFuture Credits eligible.
