Website development
A site built on your clarified story, not the other way around.
Strategic communications for mission-driven leaders
Underfunding is a translation problem.
You know the work matters. What’s missing isn’t more grit or more hours — it’s the story funders, audiences, and partners can actually act on. That’s what we build. Together.
Get clear. Get funded.
The enemy
The chasm between the real impact you create and the fundable story you’ve managed to tell about it.
Scarcity is rarely the real problem. Translation is. Most underfunded organizations aren’t the least worthy — they’re the least translated. We close that gap.
The proprietary framework
The Three-Story Method™
“The funder’s yes”

Impact story
What changes because the work exists — for the people it serves, in language funders can act on.

What the organization actually does, and how — told clearly enough for a stranger to repeat it.

Founder story
The person behind the mission — why this work, why now, why you’re the one doing it.

A protagonist story
Tilly’s Farm
The Hat Switch
Erin was blending two narratives — policy consultant and community farm founder — into one fuzzy pitch. The breakthrough came the moment she stopped wearing both hats at once.
“At some point I’m going to make you switch hats. That’s where the breakthrough happens.”
Every engagement starts with the StoryAudit.
A structured, deep-listening session — not a discovery call. By the end, the foundation of the work is set. No engagement skips it.
