re:storied is a portal for potential - a playground for transforming the world of communications, marketing and PR.

Why is it that despite easy access to information technologies and an overload of content, we are stuck in our efforts to organize for climate resilience and systemic transformation?

What can we learn from nature about communications?

What is the role of storytellers in opening spaces for dreaming, reconnection, and the uplifting of communities?

These are but a few of the questions we were holding when we — Emilie, Jean-Phillippe, and Niels, first met. We embarked on our own learning journey, exploring life’s inherent capacity to regenerate itself and for human beings to find new meaning in times of crisis.

As PR professionals, entrepreneurs, communication designers, and artists, we believe deeply in the healing power of stories. In the magic that emerges between people engaged in deep, relevant conversations. This inspired us to create a space where communicators come together to hold larger questions, to find their unique voice, and to-create transformative communication pathways for our industry — in service of life.

re:storied is a land, a community, and a platform that will evolve and change shape over time while staying true to its core. We invite you to join us and reimagine communications as a force for regeneration. Are you ready to re:story?

Beyond today’s polluted attention economy, we make time and space for what really matters: being, belonging and beauty.
