Hey, I’m Rachel Warmath.

I’m an intuitive writing coach, author, and ghostwriter. I guide authors to write with more confidence and inner trust.

I offer a unique, trauma-informed approach, especially for writers exploring topics like grief, loss, trauma, addiction recovery, and transformation.

You deserve to feel safe and supported while writing.

What Clients Are Saying

Here’s what authors around the world are saying about their experience working with me.

Words from Authors I’ve Supported on Their Journey


“Rachel is great at grounding metaphysical concepts in practical storytelling. She was a huge help with my first draft.”

“Rachel, you are everything it looks like to lift another woman up. You saw an author in me long before I could see her in myself, and you stayed with me from before this book was born all the way to putting it into the world. I'm so grateful.”

I’m a guide for authors.

I’m an independent author myself, a writing coach, and a publishing consultant based in Salt Lake City.

I write memoir, poetry, and personal development books designed to inspire self-transformation.

I also write the award-winning wellness blog Alive in the Fire, and am the visionary behind ConfidentAuthors.com.

I’m happy you’re here.

What Clients Are Saying

“You are helping the world be a better place with supporting books toward being published.

Helping the world engage their imagination, have new thoughts, and be educated.”

— Dr. Ava Pommerenk, soulful authenticity coach and transformation expert

“What stood out in the editing process with Rachel was the feeling of being very supported and warmly understood. She has also gone through the writing process herself as an author so she is empathetic. Rachel communicates terrifically and was able to add developmental edits that made my book shine. I highly recommend Rachel.”

— Christen Schweizer, author of I Centaur: Coregulation Mentorship for Horses, Humans, and Mastery

“Thank you so much for all of the support, Rachel. You have gone above and beyond helping me with my book and it means the world to me. Your editing made my writing sharper and more powerful and your guidance took the overwhelm out of publishing.”

I can see into the soul of your book.

I offer a unique book shaman approach. This means I incorporate both editorial strategy and healing into the book writing process.

This way, authors craft a beautiful book but also meet more of themselves in the process.

When you step through the author portal, you shift the course of your life, and your very consciousness.

You finally get to hold that gorgeous finished book with your name on the cover…

And embrace who you’ve become in the process.

Endorsements of Proven Performance

“As an editor, you have the gift of seeing people.”

—Carmel Ellen O'Connor, author of Written

“Your gentle nudges to keep going made me feel accountable to my book. I feel like I was finally able to articulate the depth of the message I wanted to get across. Couldn't have done that without your edits and questions.”


“Your positivity and clean energy helped me stay calm and motivated.”

I’m here to support your creative process, and all the emotions that come with it.

Let’s face it, an author’s journey isn’t just about crafting a beautiful book.

It’s also about the person you’re becoming as you write it.

And it can be scary!

And overwhelming!

So who you work with on the path to success really matters.

Using a trauma-informed, embodied approach, I watch authors overcome fear, doubt, and hesitation every day.

Because we’re working on many levels. There’s the surface layer of what’s being written, and editorial decisions we’re making. And there’s also the deeper emotional and spiritual layers of book writing.

I’m here to create space for you to grow and transform as a person—to do more than hit your word count goals or make a bestseller list.

I care about who you’re becoming.
