THE SONDERING STARFISH:

Stories that Connect, Journeys that Inspire

Sonder: (n) - The realization that each random passerby is living a life as vivid and complex as your own, populated with their own ambitions, friends, routines, worries and inherited craziness. We all think of ourselves as the main character, and everyone else is just extras. In reality, we are ALL the main character and you are an extra in someone else’s story.
— Coined by John Koenig in his book, The Dictionary of Obscure Sorrows (2012)

Welcome to The Sondering Starfish…

There are shared truths that weave together to create the stories of community, resilience, and hope.

At The Sondering Starfish, we believe that storytelling is more than just an act of expression. It is a transformative tool for aligning with your purpose and living your true story.

Much like the adaptation and evolution of a starfish over time, each of us carries a unique and dynamic narrative that is constantly changing as it shapes our world. We regenerate and grow through times of success and sorrow, finding strength and conviction in our experiences. But to fully step into our stories with clarity and confidence, we must first understand both our internal narrative, which are the beliefs, experiences, and emotions that shape us, and our external one, which is the way we communicate and share our truth with the world.

At The Sondering Starfish, we guide you through this process, helping you uncover, articulate, and align your personal story with your greater purpose.

Through upcoming retreats & workshops, one-on-one coaching, and immersive experiences in nature, we will provide the tools and support to help you:

✔ Gain clarity on your internal narrative so you can recognize the values, experiences, and truths that shape who you are.

✔ Craft and share your external story in an authentic, compelling way that fosters connection and inspires others.

✔ Align with your purpose so you can step fully into the life and work that feel most true to you.

By embracing both the visible and hidden aspects of storytelling, you’ll learn to speak with authenticity, act with intention, and connect with others on a deeper level. Whether you’re navigating a life transition, seeking a stronger sense of self, or looking to refine the way you communicate your story to the world, The Sondering Starfish offers guidance, space, and support to help you live into the story that is truly yours.
