From Shadow to Light | Trauma-Informed Coaching

Each of us is the author of a story. Storytelling has been a part of the human existence for eons; tales like The Epic of Gilgamesh and The Shipwrecked Sailor date back to 2000 BCE. Stories are an integral part of the human experience, and they are more than make-believe. We tell ourselves stories as a way to process and survive. The ‘storyn’ – story in us – includes core beliefs that shape and impact our view of the world, each other and ourselves.
As in any story, ours includes shadows made up of our trauma: abuse, betrayal, failure, grief, loss. The shadows tell us stories that we come to believe–stories like we aren’t good enough, or the trauma was our fault, or we’re selfish, or we’re broken, or we earned the shame that holds us captive. But stories are powerful because they contain more than the shadows: they are redemptive. Stories also hold light. The power of survival; the promise of tomorrow; the wonder of transformation. The Storynlight Circle is a compassionate, trauma-informed space to spark curiosity about the stories we tell ourselves, discover tools to empower us, and to reframe our stories by illuminating the light within.
It’s compassion-focused.
It’s trauma informed.
It’ personalized coaching that’s safe and empowering.
