Step Into Your Power With Story
Learn to apply the transcendent power of listening and storytelling in my group masterclass.
Break Free From the Past
Stories define us. They’re how we make sense of our lives and past experiences. What stories are you telling yourself that are no longer true or no longer serve your life’s purpose?
When we allow others to shape the narrative, we lose control of our very identity. By reclaiming our power—our stories—we break free from the bonds that temper our creative spirit and limit our full potential.
Set yourself free by learning to tell a new story.
Become the Author of Your Story
You can become the driving force behind your life’s story. All you need are the tools.
In my Masterclass, you’ll learn how to excavate, craft, and present your story in an optimal listening environment. You’ll exchange the gift of listening by witnessing other learners, inspiring you to grow into your story alongside each other.
Redefine your life’s story by embracing the role of author, leaving self-judgment and unhelpful criticism behind.
Masterclass Curriculum
Join a group of like-minded learners on an 8-week journey from where you are to where you want to go.
Week 1: Why Story? Why Now?
Awaken to the urgency of your quest for true fulfillment. Review best practices for the Masterclass, learn the practice of meditation, and discover the tenets of the four noble truths.
Week 2: Sacred Time & Space
Explore the fundamentals of sacred time and space. Learn about the centrality of intention, create a unique space of your own, and map your stories of refuge.
Week 3: Embodied Listening
Learn how to listen with an open heart and self awareness. Observe when listening challenges you, and ultimately remove listening obstacles in your way.
Week 4: Sense- Based Storytelling
Receive detailed instruction on my storytelling method. Ask, “What happened?” and rely on your body memory to answer. Practice creating new, freeing interpretations of your story.
Week 5: Creative Inspiration
Break free of the habitual ways of telling your story. Discover a new narrative by living creatively, removing creative obstacles, and enhancing your creative spirit.
Week 6: Writing Your Story Down
Embrace the paradox of writing to let go. Learn to clarify, refine, and practice presence in your writing and watch as the story you tell also changes.
Weeks 7 & 8: Presence & The Act of Telling
Declare your story finished. Culminate your journey by learning how and when to share your story. Listen with and present your story to fellow group members.

When to Apply for the Masterclass
The group environment of the Masterclass functions best when individuals bring a common goal and mindset to the class. Applicants who qualify bring the following:
1: A Clear Purpose
Before attending the class, you should have a clear understanding of “Why story? Why now?” Success in class depends on knowing what you hope to accomplish.
2: A Desire to Learn
You recognize that applying a new way of telling stories to your life will require you to try new things. With my coaching and your open mind, you can achieve your full potential.
3: A Willingness to Face Your Fears
You seek true transformation and are willing to sit with unpleasant feelings to ultimately transcend them. Your courage will only build with practice.
No, the Masterclass is not an attempt to fix something that’s wrong, nor an attempt to replace treatment for anxiety, depression, phobias, or any kind of mental illness.
The course is not concerned with commenting on or interpreting anyone’s behavior or inner feelings. Instead, the course offers guidance on how to apply my listening and storytelling method to each person’s individual path—it’s up to each individual how they put it into action.
Absolutely not. The course is for anyone who wants to learn the skills of listening and storytelling and apply them to their own lives.
Each of us have a multiplicity of stories to tell. Seeing your life as not interesting arises as a result of critical self evaluation, judgment, and opinions. One of the central aims of the class is to teach you how to listen to yourself openly and non-judgmentally so your creativity can flow.
Each Masterclass group is composed of 8-10 fellow listeners and storytellers who have satisfied the entry requirements.
Each live online session is 90 minutes long.
Online streaming sessions are held in the evenings at US Eastern Time.
Registration for the MasterClass is $1,800 and includes:
- Eight 90-minute live online sessions
- A structured curriculum
- Tailored, written materials
- In-class coaching
- Additional video materials
