Own Your Story

6 Month Cohort - Weekly Live Meetings + 2 x 1:1 Sessions

A program that gives you the tools and techniques to unpack your life story, identify your purpose, write a new story, and learn how to share it so it supports all you do in life.

Use storywork to make the unconscious conscious and weave a new narrative that supports your life mission.

My formula for transformation:

1. Create The Map

Familiarize & take inventory to see how your story fits into the Hero’s Journey formula

2. Connect The Dots

Explore how the programs of childhood have created limiting patterns and beliefs

3. Unlock The Somatic

Learn how the body and mind keep you in old stories - and techniques that help to unlock them

4. Write A New Story

Explore and envision the best vision of yourself and how your struggle is the fuel to get you there.

5. Share your Story

Use a step by step formula to structure the story and learn how to effectively share it in a succinct, compelling, and engaging way.

"Mareesa’s workshop catalyzed deep revelations and conscious awareness of connections that had remained mysterious and confusing to me after decades of consideration. I had known there was a story and wisdom to be shared, but not all the implications I’m exploring now. Mareesa was an insightful, caring guide who offered many gifts over the series. I wish we were still meeting!"

"Your workshop provides tools that help the user to cultivate witness by framing their life as a story in creation and in their control vs one that is just happening to them. Its empowering to view one's life this way.

I got a lot out of the course. Thank you for offering it. "

"Mareesa's passion for the power of story to transform your relationship to your own story is medicine. It's very easy to keep busy and avoid looking at your story to make sense of it in a deeper way but Mareesa both inspires and accompanies you through that difficult journey. With her, you will feel safe (and excited!) to embrace the entire human experience and come out the other end with a crafted, impactful story."

"Through her storytelling magic, Mareesa helped me unearth old memories from childhood that I had considered settled and see them with new eyes, bringing me to illuminating new perspectives about my childhood struggles, why they were so hard and where to go with them as an adult. The class container provided a supportive, judgement free space for both self reflection and for practice sharing my story. I would highly recommend her class to anyone who is interested in re-writing their old self-limiting narratives from a place of compassion and power."

"Thank you Mareesa for holding such a container that inspires and empowers individuals to understand the power of their story.”

"Before working with Mareesa, I had read how to write memoir books but was stuck and getting nowhere with too much material. Mareesa's timeline method for identifying inflections points then focusing on the human journey, helped me to move forward with writing my story. Her supportive and caring instruction allowed me to explore the depth of my struggles so that I can now share my story with confidence."

"Mareesa has thought deeply about the ways stories create us as much as we create them. This class helped me get down to the DNA-level of certain stories of mine. It's like Crisper technology, helping you insert new programming into the protein double-helix of your SOUL. (Seriously.)"
