Life is a Story
Are you wondering “What’s next for me in this next chapter of my life?” Do you find the same challenges repeating themselves and think “Why is this happening to me?”
If so, it’s time to write a new chapter in your life story.
“I have a life story?”
Yes! You have a story that you tell yourself and to others. Your story is how you see yourself in the world. It’s time to take charge of that story. But first, a little background:
Stories have been a powerful force throughout human history.
- Our brains are hardwired to respond to stories. Studies suggest stories and storytelling activate parts of the brain associated with language, emotion, and social interaction.
- From a young age, we absorb information and lessons through the stories we hear from parents, families, and our communities. These stories shape our understanding of the world and our place in it.
- As we experience life, we subconsciously organize events into narratives or how we choose to tell a story. This helps us remember experiences, identify patterns, and make sense of the world around us.
- The stories we’re exposed to and the ones we tell about ourselves add to our identity. They help us define who we are, what we value, and how we fit into the world.
Our stories significantly influence our sense of self-worth, belonging, and core beliefs.
“Carrie West made all the difference for me with changing my mindset. I was coming from a pretty stressful situation in my life and was going through a lot of life changes. When I moved I wanted to set myself up for the best possible success going forward. Carrie helped me understand my life from the perspective of a story and see what had led to my thoughts and actions being shaped and why. Once I understood my actions and the stories surrounding them, I was able to put those patterns into context and change the narrative going forward. With Carrie’s help, I have been able to understand and change my life. I wouldn’t be where I am today without her help!”

You are the author of your life.
Every day you write a new chapter to your story.
Are you ready to change your story and change your life?
That’s where I come in…
As a Life Story Coach, I take you through a proven process of knowing the story you’re living today:
- Changing your story is important to your happiness. Some of us live with a false idea of who we truly are and what we deserve.
- We repeat the stories that we got from our family and never reach for the life we want for ourselves. We can change that.
- If you have a dream that’s calling you, one that you’ve known but never pursued for any reason, we can get to the core and find out how to find your purpose and make your dream a reality.
