what your coach believes

And if you don't tell it - it will be a loss for the entire world.

Do you daydream about writing that story kept inside of you?

I know what you mean. Since I learned how to write I could never stop thinking characters, dialogues, books, movies and tv series. (I'm Italian, Isabel Allende's biggest fan and Billy Wilder is on my dead people dinner invitation).

After 7 years of studies and a job a writer in a film company (which sounded like a dream job, but I wasn't writing my stories anymore), I quit to start hosting Writing Workshops. (Which include Screenwriting, Playwriting and Book Coaching).

And what does Storytelling with Love mean?

That as you Coach, I push you into a process in which you feel seen, valued, loved and ready to dive into writing with an aligned approach.

let me just say this...

Writers don't need to struggle!
And I'm on a mission to bring love to the process.

You know the music teacher in Whiplash?
I'm his complete opposite.

I'm here to fight the belief that "art comes from pain" and embracing a new truth: creativity is fueled by love - so you can share your voice without burning out or breaking yourself.

My core vision: a world where artists, writers, and dreamers thrive from wholeness—not suffering—and where storytelling becomes an act of care, truth, and love.


Let Me Introduce your new coach - me!

Hi, I’m Lisa Camilla La Colla!

I am a creative, empathetic, visionary writer, performer and coach. (With an obsession over the color-palette of this website, but I'm healing).

I'm a Phantom of the Opera groupie, I can watch Friends like it's my first time and I yelled at a teacher who stated that characters don't exist (seriously, these people 🙄)

My mission is supporting writers and creatives to get their stories written and make them feel great about themselves. Because each story has the potential to change this world for the better.

Danger warning: I'll probably get emotional when you finish your story's first draft.

My Strengths (and damages I'm proud of)

4+ Years of Workshops

I've coached more than 30 creatives shape their stories from scratch.

3 Clients Quit their Jobs

Hey, I'm proud of it...one became a full-time director, another has written a novel and the last one is enjoying life!

Finalist Novel Competition 2025

I've written a novel in 22 days and got final in the IoScrittore Literary Competition in 2025.

Soloentrepreneur & Business owner

Yep, I learned all byself (and from guru girlies' blogs) about: webdesign, digital marketing, sales and landing pages, copywriting, email marketing, newsletter, SEO, blogging, Stripe setups and domain.

Here's the truth:

If you're considering whether I'm your creative fit,
this is what you should know about me:

❤︎ I'm your story therapist: we will go deep on what's blocking your creativity. (And I'll never ever judge you for it)



❤︎ It takes me from 15 to 20 minutes to untangle your most complex story idea. (You'll probably wonder why you've lost so much time waiting - but hey, you're here now)


❤︎ I will tell you to ditch "inspiration" and embrace deadlines. Nothing is more dangerous that waiting for the Muse to come and visit you.



❤︎ I am a writer myself. This means that I completely know and understand every single struggle you're having.

That's it! We're a creative fit!

(And i can't wait to "meet" you!)
