Everybody has a story.

Story is the narrative thread of life experience—
not what literally happens, but what we create from
what happens.

Story is what we tell each other and what we remember.

A person in charge of his/her story is in charge of his/her life!


Christina Baldwin's book, Storycatcher, Making Sense of our Lives through the Power and Practice of Story shows readers how to create better lives by telling themselves better stories—not changing past events, but changing the meaning of events into a supportive foundation for who we are now.

Christina Baldwin has been a Storycatcher her whole life. She is the author of five books and a renowned teacher and conference presenter. At age twelve she began recording the story of her own life and is a founder of the journal writing movement. Since the 1970s, she has interacted with tens of thousands of people teaching the importance and power of story. Now, she has gathered the insights from this work into an inspiring book full of life-changing stories.

Story is the voice of humanity.

We see the world through the story we carry about the world.

Story can move us to love or hate through the power of words alone.

To create the world we want, we need to tell the stories that make that world possible.

To make peace, to make love, to make possible—all things start in story.

Based on her book, Christina Baldwin invites people to become Storycatchers — to practice using story to build bridges of understanding, to create community, and to inspire each other to action for a better world.
