Bring Your Stories to Life 1 of 4

Bring Your Stories to Life 1 of 4

4 weekends of in-depth exploration of the magical and transformative art of telling personal true-life stories.

  • Weekend One: Fri 12th Sept – Sun 14th Sept 2025
  • Weekend Two: Fri 10th Oct – Sun 12th Oct 2025
  • Weekend Three: Fri 7th Nov – Sun 9th Nov 2025
  • Weekend Four: Fri 5th Dec – Sun 16th Dec 2025

Our life is a unique story, a true Once upon a time adventure of a striving heroine or hero, facing challenges, overcoming obstacles, falling in and out of love and experiencing loss, triumphs and transformation as you follow an invisible storyline that reveals itself from day to day.

If you hear a calling to honour your journey and celebrate the real stuff life and all good stories are made of, you are warmly invited to join us and Bring your stories to Life!

On this course, in a fun and encouraging atmosphere, we will explore together methods of unlocking memories, sourcing meaningful experiences from the treasure chest of our personal biography and transforming them into fascinating stories, gifts for ourselves and all those around us.

You will find how to use your authentic voice and presence to serve the call of your unique story. We will learn storytelling techniques and how to shape and craft these stories artistically, so that what is personal to us touches something universal in our listeners revealing what being human is truly about.

Working creatively with our perception, understanding, and interpretation of personal experiences, we will open doorways for finding fresh meaning in past experiences and seeing our present story as full of potential and possibilities.

By the end of the course you will know how to use an effective process of crafting, transforming and polishing the raw pearls and raw diamonds of memories into the shining invaluable gifts of precious gem stories and will have the required skills to apply the process to any story you wish to tell and any audience of listeners.
