Our Work

Unlock Your Story provides storytelling coaching, consulting, and community. Using creative partnership, Unlock Your Story weaves together all aspects of storytelling into its practice. We operate under the belief that we all have powerful and valuable stories locked inside of us that are waiting to be tapped into. We focus on deep relationship-building to lean into authentic engagement and highlight the individual and collective strengths of all we work with.

“Stories can serve as affirmation. They can build us up and help us manifest our dreams into reality. What stories do you tell yourself about yourself?

Storytelling Workshops

Cierra was an absolute joy to work with. She led a workshop with our Ladies Wine & Design DC chapter to harness and unlock our creative story. Cierra was thoughtful, inclusive, funny, and created a safe space for us to share and reflect. Everyone commented how much they loved the workshop and left feeling empowered. We will definitely jump at the opportunity to work with her again!
