Transformative Life Story Coaching | Online Cohorts & Individual Options | Retreats & Intensives | Self-excavation

AN OFFERING FROM THE ISTORIA INSTITUTE

 

The life coaching you’ve always needed but didn’t know existed.

Reconcile to your stories.

LIVE IN PEACE WITH YOURSELF.

You have a fire inside you.

Something feels off, disconnected, unreconciled.

For too long, you’ve felt alone and misunderstood. You feel stuck in self-doubt, disbelief, and a lack of clarity. You can’t see the way forward.

At your lowest, you worry you aren’t “fixable.” You fear your stories are too broken. Too much has happened to you. You’ve tried so many things to resolve the conflicts inside, and now you’re worried that what’s hurting may not go away.

What if nothing works?

Every day, you long to feel seen and understood. You want to be free of the confusion and doubt hanging over you. You want to believe that something good can come from all your pain. You want to believe that it gets better, that more is possible. You want purpose.

You want to be reconciled to yourself. You want to stand grounded in your truth.

You want to live at peace.

You are in the right place.

All this is possible here.

    — Mandy, testimonial after three months

  • "The Becoming Restoried process has allowed me to re-venture into any story I carry, be it joyful, shameful, or harmful … never before has a program so thoughtfully challenged me to reshape my relationship with these stories, without changing their details." 

    — Mikaela, testimonial after four months

  • The voices of our group have given me perspective outside of the bubble I was living in. The openness and supportiveness of the BR community has helped me so much. I know I can be real with the group and find practical support, shelter, and encouragement. I'll be heard and helped, not judged or dismissed.

    — Amy, after 10 months in the program

It’s all about

storytelling.

Stories are how we make meaning of our lives.

There are five basic stories you can be living at any moment. The first four start like this:

  • “I’m not good enough” — The Self-Doubt Story

  • “I’m the problem” — The Self-Defeating Story

  • “I’m not worthy” — The Victim Story

  • “Everything is perfect” — The Avoidance Story

These stories determine how you experience your life. They determine how you think, how you relate to others, how you imagine what’s possible for your future…even how you make daily decisions.

The good news is that they are fluid and can even be in constant flux. Usually, you are living out aspects of multiple stories at the same time. And still, at any given moment, one of these stories can dominate your airwaves.

FIND OUT WHAT STORY YOU’RE IN RIGHT NOW with this simple assessment

the task is not to erase these stories.

it’s to integrate them.

Living in The Integrated Story means you’ve taken the other four stories that swirl in your mind and body and you’ve woven them into something that can truly help you.

Why not erase them? Because these stories have helped you survive until now—they’ve served a purpose. But now it might be time to release their vice grip on you in service of a new story that can lead you into the future you so deeply want.

When you do, you will:

  • Deepen your understanding of who you are so you can step out of self-doubt and into self-acceptance

  • Find clarity on the origins of your decision-making patterns and habits so that you can create new healthier ones

  • Connect your core wounds to your core purpose so you can live with increased passion, meaning, and contentment

  • See yourself as the protagonist in a unique, unfolding story so that you can feel more confidence in the importance of your life

  • Release pain and discomfort held in your body and mind so that you can feel more peace

  • Turn the confusion of a painful past into the power of a clear narrative of purpose
