About the Book

Everyone has a story to tell; and as such, everyone has the power to rewrite it, as many times as needed. This book is inspired by the human spirit of ferocious grit and resilience; our fear of vulnerability; and our need for meaning.

Through the power of visualization meditation, creative writing, and journaling, your story can come to light: to be celebrated, healed, and most importantly, witnessed.

In The Stories We Tell, I walk us through 10 days of learning how to recognize the old stories and limiting beliefs that we’ve carried through our ancestral line for decades.

These stories range from money to self-worth and confidence, and they implicate every aspect of our lived experience. They are often the barriers and walls we face when growing on our path of self-development.

Old stories are beliefs, attitudes, and subsequent actions that are prevalent in our family line. This could be scarcity towards abundance, mistrust in relationships, lack of body love and confidence, etc.

We all have these stories, and at some point, they served their purpose: they kept us safe and protected to ensure survival and family connection through decades of evolution.

We stayed tied and loyal to these stories because they were handed down to us in family upbringing. We often didn’t know we had a choice.

Through the use of simple creative exercises and meditation, we will learn how to extract these old stories, write new ones for ourselves and future generations to follow, and finally begin to step into our most authentic selves.
