I enjoyed being in Zafira's Tide Pool and LOVED learning to incorporate more sensory storytelling into my writing. Working with Zafira is always a treat, and I know the experience will always exceed my expectations because she goes above and beyond anyone I know.
Zafira brought my writing skills to life by helping me incorporate more emotion, feeling, and senses into my writing. Now when people to me they LOVE reading my emails, I believe them. Working with Zafira always feels like a gift.
— LINDA SIDHU
"Now, people tell me they LOVE reading my emails!"
But what you ALSO learn fast is that no amount of copywriting courses, emails to your list, or social media posts is *enough* to make you feel like you totally got this.
Finding the inspiration, motivation, and stories to tell — on your own — is totally possible, but challenging to maintain without hitting a wall at some point.
(Not to mention: trying to ensure what you write about is relevant and considerate of the current climate.)
In short, writing is often a lonely process!
After years of writing for my own business, hundreds of clients, and now, a book — the answer to writing with more joy and ease is simple:
The more you write in a creative space, the better it will feel.
It’s just like riding a bike: it requires practice in a challenging and supportive environment to feel confident AND enjoy it.
I believe you deserve to feel safe, excited, and inspired when you share your words with the world.
And if I'm being honest... You're further ahead than you think.
Entrepreneurs learn pretty quickly that copywriting is a non-negotiable skill when it comes to running a business.
- Do you share stories with ease... In the *right* company?
- Have you tried journaling?
- Do you love a good novel — and a warm bevvy to match?
- Have you felt the satisfaction of penning the *perfect* email before?
- Do you spend time crafting great captions for social media posts?
I’m guessing you can probably answer *yes* to one of the above, and here’s why:
At our core, humans are storytellers.
You're already a writer.
Stories lift us. Stories heal us. Stories serve us.
SPOILER ALERT:
What if — instead of treating it as a skill — we viewed writing as a creative *ritual* that serves to support your personal AND professional growth?
THE TIDE POOL
Kick your shoes off, sink your toes into the sand and wade into…
A creative writing membership for folks who want to strengthen their voice, commit to a consistent writing practice, and express themselves with confidence.
Carve out the time you need to write *anything* — your next email to your list, your book, your upcoming blog post — this is your space.
YOU can finally:
Master the art of sensory writing with cues and prompts from Zafira (some say it’s my specialty!).
INSIDE THE TIDE POOL...
Turn writing into a sacred ritual that feels non-negotiable, instead of something you dread.
Have the opportunity to share your work in a safe space in a private group of creatives (because a second set of eyes is always great, right?).
Focus on writing without interruptions, distractions, or doom scrolling.
Cultivate the confidence to speak your truth and be known for it.
Want to anchor yourself into this corner of the ocean internet?
- Tide pool habitats are as diverse as rainforests?
- Each creature in a tide pool is intimately connected to the others?
- Animals in tide pools have to be equipped to handle constantly changing environments?
And most of all — tide pools protect their creatures and keep them alive in the worst of conditions?
That’s exactly what I hope to cultivate inside this membership:
Diversity of stories. Connections between each human vulnerable enough to show up and write. Support to weather any season of life and still find the inspiration to create. A lifeline for when it feels easy to give up on your practice and return to ritual.
Sounds like your type of pool party? 🌊
Hold up a sec — I don't swim, Zafira...
HECK YES, I'M IN!
Why the heck is it called The Tide Pool?
As a writer, I wanted a space where I could exercise my creative genius without feeling burdened by metrics or business expectations. The Tide Pool delivers.
I love having the option to write in a group, and the resources to write on my own. I also really appreciate the opportunity to pick Zafira's brain, and to connect with other writers in a creative space that feels so intimate and safe.
Zafira may not say you'll become a better writer; but as a program participant, I can guarantee you will become a better writer. That's just the way it is. Do it!
— REBECA MENINI
"I can guarantee you will become a better writer."
Zafira creates a warm and inviting space online for me to show up and do my writing practice. I understand the value of having a regular circle that helps you stay motivated and show up for yourself — but it's a challenge to find the right blend of people, times that work for my schedule, and a supportive (rather than critical and competitive) group.
Zafira does such a lovely job of combining all three so I look forward to taking that time to show up for myself. The reality is this: the more you write, the better and easier the writing gets. This is a great way to give yourself that support!
— JEN BAXTER
"The more you write, the better you'll get."
- At the start of each month, you’ll receive a bundle of writing prompts to pull from *whenever* you’re facing writer’s block, or want to challenge yourself to create.
- Zafira will customize this bundle of prompts each month so that it's tailored for the exact season of life we’re in — to ensure you're writing for the moment, staying relevant and inspired by our current environment.
- Twice a month, carve out an hour to write — live, in the best company!
- Zafira will lead the session with a writing ritual and dive in with a surprise prompt, curated just for the group. Head down, tabs closed, distraction-free space to do your best work.
- We’ll alternate between writing for work and pleasure.

I fell in love with writing again.
"The Tide Pool helped me fall in love with writing again! I just had to show up and write to the prompts. Listening to Zafira's writing tantalized my senses and as we kept going, I was inspired by the writing of others in our group, just as my own writing started improving. There was less trying, just showing up consistently in a fun way. It felt good to be working on the writing piece of my business that is important but not so drab or a necessary evil that I wanted to push it away."
SHRUTEE loved the simplicity...
WORDS FROM FELLOW MERMAIDS
Learn from the best in the business: Zafira.
"If you want to find your writing voice so you can optimize your emails and communications with your clients, this is THE program to be apart of. Learn from the best in the business, Zafira Rajan, and be part of a supportive community of likeminded entrepreneurs."
EMILY LOVED OUR WORD-OBSESSED COMMUNITY..
I've gotten so much better.
"Zafira's ability to write sparkling, imaginative copy on the fly begins to rub off — even for someone who didn't think she could write. I've gotten so much better."
and ROBIN DIDN'T even THINK SHE COULD WRITE like this!
I'm Zafira, your new writing buddy.
If you’re reading this, chances are you've had a taste of my writing before... And you know how much I love sharing meaningful stories.
I’m known for teaching and serving others with personality-driven copy that connects humans to their hearts and senses; and for treating writing as an easeful, empowering process.
(Oh, and for being *that* wild person who dives into the ocean in the dead of winter.)
What you *might* not know is that finding the space to let my own voice flourish — free of clients, sales pages, and emails — took TONS of discipline, time, and accountability.
hey friend!
When I committed to writing as a ritual...
- I prioritized a dream on my to-do list forever: writing a book, with the goal to land a book deal within the next year
- I could immediately spot the day-to-day story opportunities to share with my audience effortlessly (and segue into sales for my business)
- I found greater clarity, healing, and ease in how I expressed myself — to loved ones and to my customers
In a seashell (too many ocean puns?), writing just for *me* brought me home.
The Tide Pool is rooted in the practices, rituals, and routines that I've personally tried, tested *and* have been proven to encourage momentum and creativity.
(Has living a minute from the ocean and embracing real cold plunges helped integrate ALL of it? YES. Yes it has!)
Most importantly — it's a *space* that's held just for you to do your most creative work.
Time and time again, my community members have expressed how the containers I've created allowed them to fully take up space (without overwhelming it), open up, and just be themselves.
That's what I want for YOU.
Space to explore your writing voice and stories you're itching to tell
Inspiration and motivation to write fearlessly and creatively, without being attached to an outcome
Accountability to truly carve out the time to stick to a writing practice and keep that muscle warm and engaged
Opportunities to share your work in a safe space, receive feedback and be uplifted by others doing the same
Personalized writing prompts and support when you're feeling stuck in your business
An intimate writing community that lets your true voice flourish
🐚 This is your personal invite to jump in with me if you’re craving:
JOIN NOW!
Whether you come into The Tide Pool to prioritize your written voice in your business or just for you...
You’ll find a home for it here.
Dive in,
Zafira
I struggled with how to "show things" more than "tell" in my writing, and I knew my work as a copywriter would improve if I leaned into my creativity. It's hard to carve out the time to explore that by yourself! The Tide Pool helped me introduce more sensory elements to my writing with a daily writing ritual that I'm actually sticking to.
Zafira's genius way of bringing more vivid details to your business writing improved my writing tenfold. I'm booked out for the next two months because people come to me now for the personality and specificity I bring to their copy. Zafira's coaching and gentle nudges within this group have gotten me to this place as a writer.
— JESS BROOKS
"My writing has improved... Tenfold."

Before the Tide Pool, I was expressing myself creatively and communicating through my writing, but it wasn't always landing like I hoped it would.
Now, the ideas and words flow, and my audience feels it. I'm stretching myself creatively, and my writing is improving as a result!
The Warm Dips are just that.. Warm, restorative, juicy and creative. It's a call on my calendar twice a month that I genuinely look forward to.
I just love being in Zafira's world and I'm so glad I took the plunge!
— Nathalie Daudet
"My ideas and words flow now — and my audience feels it."
In a world where we are told to learn how to write for others, this is an experience where you write for yourself. And guess what? When you do that, you share your deepest experiences and you create deeper connections with others. You connect with people who really get you — all parts of you. Learning how to do that is what Zafira has mastered over the years.
I usually process better when I speak, and now to be able to do that with writing feels empowering. I would recommend this to anyone who is interested processing their emotions through writing or wants to attract quality clients who resonate with their real selves!
— NISHA KUNDER
