Story…
Makes Us Whole

In the workplace, in communities, in families, and in our hearts and minds.
Story brings us home to our bodies, our lived experience and our meaning making. Storytelling is at the core of all human connection, and storytelling makes life meaningful.
But we have lost touch with the art and craft of shaping and sharing stories, with the reciprocity of deep listening, and the cohesion and connection that comes from story sense making.
Story Ground exists to bring more wholeness into the world through story – helping people in groups and individually, shape, share, listen and hear stories.
Story Ground offers programs that…
-
Facilitate and coach people to shape and share stories, individually and in groups, to reflect, connect, and express themselves.
-
Create safe space to draw stories out, enable people to hear each other, and from there make collective sense.
-
Gather and weave stories together to create a larger narrative, as audio, performance or document.
