How We Do

“Until the lion tells his side of the story, the tale of the hunt will always glorify the hunter.”

In order to guide a client to their best narrative, we listen to their story as it is. Our expertise in storytelling allows us to utilize “applied narrative epidemiology” - real-time research of the patterns of narrative including structure, characters, settings, and themes - all with

the goal of creating the best story for the client’s audience. We also encourage incorporation of “virtues,” positive intrinsic qualities that we believe are possessed by all people. We strive to construct the client’s narrative in a way that is undeniably reflective of their personal and organizational values and principles, and through shaping the narrative and the modalities through which it is told, we are confident that the audience will be undeniably aware. What We Do

“What is it inside of you that allowed you to give me this precious stone so freely?”

We help clients discover their story, acknowledge its significance in their lives, and hone the ability to share it with their audience. Once they do, clients not only gain better appreciation of their journey, but they are positioned to recover the power lost when one does not unapologetically tell their story.
