An easy way to find what you need

From broken narratives to sacred stories...

Telling better stories is how we heal our world.


That knot in your stomach when you're about to share your story? The resistance to "putting yourself out there" even though everyone says you should? It's
not just imposter syndrome – it's your intuition trying to tell you something important:


The mainstream approach to storytelling isn't working. Not for sensitive souls. Not for paradigm-shifters. Not for those of us doing heart-led, transformational work.


There's a better way to tell your story. One that honors your nervous system, amplifies your authentic voice, and creates real impact for your communities. One that turns storytelling from a marketing checkbox into a sacred practice of service.

You sense there's a better way to tell your story...

You're tired of:

  • Mainstream marketing tactics that feel manipulative and inauthentic

  • Surface-level storytelling that doesn't honor the depth of your experiences

  • Feeling pressured to "share everything" before you're ready

  • Stories that trigger rather than heal

  • Narratives that uphold harmful systems rather than create change

This workshop is for you if:

You're a heart-led leader, knowledge worker, or creative and you:

  • Have important work to share but feel hesitant about putting yourself out there

  • Want to make an impact while staying true to your values

  • Seek deeper, more authentic ways to connect with your audience

  • Care about creating safe, inclusive spaces in your work

  • Are ready to shift paradigms through better storytelling

So what makes better storytelling?

Better stories create transformation on three levels...

🌀 SHARE TRANSFORMATIVE KNOWLEDGE

  • Lessons from lived experience

  • Values & visions for collective futures

  • Cultural ways & wisdom

🔖 EMPOWER BOTH STORYTELLER & AUDIENCE

  • Honor nervous system safety

  • Create belonging

  • Liberate authentic expression

🌾 CATALYZE COLLECTIVE CHANGE

  • Shift mindsets & spark healing

  • Cultivate deeper relationships

  • Guide aligned action-taking

The Workshop Journey:


🌿 Connect - Ground with other heart-led leaders and reconnect with the visions that call forth your stories


🔍 Problem-Pose - Examine harmful storytelling in our contexts and reframe sensitivity into superpower


🏗️ Better Frameworks - Learn prerequisites for better storytelling and visualize frameworks that keep stories sacred while sharing impactfully


✨ Better Stories - Explore culturally-responsive, inclusive, liberatory outcomes and experience guides for 5 types of better stories


🤝Workshop & Share - Write in community, in safety. Share when called. We'll hold space for you.

The paradigm shift: From harmful to helpful stories...

What people are saying...

about the TELL BETTER STORIES workshop:

Regina A., Publishing Coach & Founder

"It was so eye-opening, perspective shifting, just so helpful. It's really something that you have to spend some time with and think about, which I love. There's layers to the work... I loved everything from the start with the acknowledgements & agreements, the invitation you made to us. I really liked the 'do now, do later' design of the follow-along... I loved the story internalization cycle – that's just so important to know. I found myself taking three pages of notes!"

Jasmine T., Psychotherapist & Counsellor

"As a third-generation Singaporean-Chinese who moved to Melbourne... being away from Home has made the question of 'what is Home' come to the foreground... Joey's Tell Better Stories workshop... gave me a starting point to shape the story I want to tell - to my Self first, then considering how to use my story to connect with and advocate for the community that I serve... I love how Joey emphasizes the importance of checking in with our nervous system before sharing... I can't recommend Joey's workshop enough, whether you're wondering 'who am I' or 'how can I use my stories for good?'"

Amber B., Workshop Strategist & Founder


"I loved your framing around the sacredness of stories, and how we can be "good" storytellers. Loved the handout. Top tier. Those story types and frameworks are😘👌🏽. And your personal stories (obviously). Also the energy ritual you did 🫶🏽. I liked having time in small groups at the end. You probably need more time, cuz I can't imagine you sharing less content/context."

Hi! I'm Joey...

Educator, Storyteller, Coach, Healer & Activist

As an educator, storyteller, and coach with over 12 years of experience helping others find and share their authentic voice, I've developed frameworks that make storytelling safer, more intentional, and more impactful for both storyteller and audience.

My approach integrates:

  • Trauma-informed practices

  • Decolonizing methodologies

  • Indigenous wisdom

  • Nervous system awareness

  • Community-centered learning

I believe that our stories are our radical power - not just for ourselves, but for our communities & the collective futures we're working to grow. Through this workshop, I'll share the frameworks & practices I've developed to help you tell stories that heal, inspire, and create meaningful change.
