Who Am I?
Hi, I’m Natasha! I’ve lived on four continents, written for publications in 80+ countries, and been a contributor to The New York Times, TIME, National Geographic, CNN, BBC, Psychology Today, ABC News, Marie Claire, Vogue, Ms., and more.Â
I’ve won awards for my journalism (Development Journalist of the Year) and have been a contributor to bestselling books (The Lonely Planet Travel Anthology: True Stories From The World’s Best Writers.)
It is not a coincidence that so many of my students go on to get $1-a-word assignments, six-figure careers, and location-independent lifestyles.
It is because I know exactly how creative and ambitious people think, what they want out of their careers, and where they stumble.
I know you because I AM you.
I have faced the problems, the income dips, the heartbreak, and the frustration that you may currently be feeling.
I have faced it and come out of it.
I don’t teach you just what I know. I show you what I did, and then I show you how to overcome your own blocks to achieve the same results.
But in order to get the results, you have to do the work and you have to take the risk to believe in and invest in yourself.
And if you do? I can help you.
Have questions? We have answers!
Because Wordling Plus isn’t just a bunch of courses. It’s a complete system.
You get the full library of trainings—courses, workshops, masterclasses, templates, and more—plus live coaching, pitch critiques, accountability calls, and a growing database of pitches that sold. Everything works together to help you land assignments faster, earn more, and build a sustainable freelance career.
If you were to buy all this individually (assuming you could), you’d easily spend over $10,000. But with Wordling Plus, you get unlimited access to everything for one simple monthly (or annual) price.
No upsells. No fine print. Just everything you need—all in one place.
When you sign up, you’ll be taken to a page where you can access all the courses. You’ll also get emailed a receipt and a link.
Ooh, and if that wasn’t enough, get this: You get full access immediately. Unlike other memberships, we don't believe in dripping content or forcing you to stay longer to access certain modules. You get everything on Day 1.
Which means that you can jump in, start learning at your own pace, and get the results you want without waiting weeks for new lessons to drop.
What can we say, the people-pleasing runs deep.
Is it working?
Of course! If you’ve already taken one or two courses, Wordling Plus is the natural next step.
The membership isn’t just more content—it’s a complete system. It connects the dots between what you’ve learned and how to actually implement it consistently, pitch regularly, and grow your income.
Plus, you’ll get access to every other course, all the tools and templates, monthly coaching, pitch critiques, and our community calls—so you’re not just learning what to do, but doing it alongside other writers (with support and feedback from me).
Most members find that one good assignment pays for the entire year, so even if you’ve already invested in a course or two, Wordling Plus can multiply that investment many times over.
We'll try to get back to you within 24-48 hours, but if you don't hear from us within that time frame, we give you permission to yell at us in your follow-up email.
