Your life is the sum of your experiences.
Let’s walk the storytelling path together.
At The People Equation, we believe that your story matters. Whether you’re reflecting on a life well-lived, capturing memories for your family, or telling the story of your professional journey, you deserve a space to explore and express your experiences.
Through Life Story Coaching, we help you bring those stories to life—one meaningful reflection at a time.
What Is Life Story Coaching?
Life Story Coaching is a guided process that helps you explore, write, and shape your personal or professional stories. It’s not about writing a bestseller (unless you want to!)—it’s about capturing the truth of who you are and what you’ve lived through, so it can be remembered, shared, and celebrated.
Whether you’re just starting to reflect on your past or you’re finally ready to put pen to paper, this space is for you.
How We Can Work Together:
1. Guided Autobiography Coaching
Write your life story one chapter at a time. Using the Guided Autobiography method developed by Dr. James Birren, we explore key life themes—like family, work, money, and turning points—through short, focused writing exercises.
Available in:
- Small group workshops (virtual or in-person)
- 1:1 private coaching
Perfect for:
- Anyone seeking personal insight
- Those who want to leave a legacy for loved ones
- First-time writers looking for structure and support
2. Memoir & Legacy Story Coaching
Do you have a collection of stories you’ve been meaning to write down? Or perhaps you want to preserve your family history in your own voice?
We’ll work together to shape your memories into a cohesive, story-driven format—whether it’s a legacy book, a series of letters, or themed story vignettes.
Perfect for:
- Family historians
- Grandparents/parents creating keepsakes
- Anyone who says, “I’ve been meaning to write this down…”
3. Business Life Story Coaching
Every professional journey tells a story—from first jobs to major pivots, challenges overcome, and lessons learned. We help you write the story of your career, so you can use it in:
- Speaker bios
- LinkedIn profiles
- Professional websites
- Personal branding materials
Perfect for:
- Thought leaders & entrepreneurs
- Professionals exploring “what’s next”
- Retirees reflecting on a career
Note: This is not resume writing—but it’s the basis for creating resumes and bios that capture the essence of your unique contribution to work.
