🌿 Therapist: “How have you been tending to your well-being lately?”

Client: “Honestly… I’m not sure. I feel like I’m just trying to get through each day.”

Therapist: “That makes so much sense. When life gets heavy, it’s easy to slip into survival mode. But even small, intentional shifts can reconnect us with our center.”

Client: “Like what?”

Therapist: “Sometimes it’s as simple as resting when you’re tired, saying no when you need to, or spending time with someone who helps you feel seen. These small acts of care remind your nervous system: ‘I’m safe now.’”

✨ Gentle reminder from Soul Story Therapy:
Your well-being doesn’t need to be a big production. It can begin with one step. One breath. One boundary. One walk outside.

Start where you are.

Over the last several months, Soul Story Therapy has had the privilege of partnering with Resolute Forest Products in Childersburg, Alabama, an organization deeply committed to investing in the growth and success of its employees. After reaching out with a desire to enhance workplace culture and leadership development, Resolute implemented a customized Work Readiness Program for new hires and Emotional Intelligence & Leadership Training for team leads, supervisors, and leaders across all levels.

To ensure the training was truly reflective of the employees’ day-to-day experiences, Soul Story Therapy’s owner, Hanna Stiltner, visited the facility in advance to tour the space and gain a first-hand understanding of the unique demands of the work environment. That insight allowed the team to tailor each component of the training to the realities of the industry and the people who keep it running.

These programs are not one-size-fits-all. Soul Story Therapy specializes in designing workplace trainings that are practical, engaging, and custom-fit to teams both large and small. The goal is always the same: to equip employees with the tools to thrive and support leadership in building strong, emotionally intelligent teams.

Emotional Intelligence (EQ) is one of the most powerful predictors of workplace success. Studies show that 90% of top performers have high EQ, and organizations that prioritize EQ training often experience stronger communication, reduced turnover, improved morale, and more effective leadership.

If your company is looking to enhance workplace culture and support your employees’ long-term success, Soul Story Therapy offers customized EQ and leadership training designed to meet your specific needs.
