What you do isn’t unique
But WHY you do it is

Most founder stories fail to connect emotionally or inspire action. Their About pages are bland, generic and vague.

Telling your story is not a vanity play. (And by the way…it is REALLY hard to write your own story)

The goal of your founder’s story is not to make someone just watch or read...but to make someone want to take action.

And they should...because you have an amazing story (even if you don’t think so).

Yours deserves better

It’s the shortcut to getting more consistent clients, press opportunities, more followers, speaking requests and & other life-changing opportunities knocking at your door. It’s never been more important in this crowded online space to be able to convey who you are -especially on video.

Your founder story is the No. 1 way to

Grow your impact & income

Without having to try  every single digital marketing strategy & pay for PR services.

Like Alex Alexander

****spoiler alert: she was selected.

“Turns out I was nominated for a “Women to Watch” 2023 list. 

Alex Alexander

Total of 4-5 women on the list each year and the final push for them to give me the invite was my founders story”

This is her reaction when my team delivered Alex’s beautiful founder video that she wrote inside my program

That's the kind of public recognition you'll start getting from putting your story out there when you learn how to write it using my Founder Fire ™ techniques.

The Founder's Fire Cohort Is Perfect For You If:

GET on the waitlist for the next Founder’s Fire cohort!

You know you’re not leveraging your own story in the brand narrative of your business.

Your bios and “About” page don’t inspire you.

You don’t know what life moments should and shouldn't be part of your founder story.

You want a template and guidance on how to structure your timeline and story.

The thought of writing and creating a founder video sounds completely overwhelming.

You know you’re missing out on opportunities for speaking, press, collaborations and even new business because there is “something” missing.

You want help from a team of former award-winning journalists.

You’re sick of wasting hours on Google or YouTube researching DIY video production.

You want insight into how you should leverage this video for multi-purpose business use.

You don’t have time to fully write your own founder story, but you don’t have the budget to fully outsource the production to a team of professionals.

But without that self-esteem-destroying experience, I probably wouldn’t have gone off on my own to build a NY-based storytelling company helping founders uncover and share compelling narratives.

I have worked with brands like Afterpay, Lululemon, and Netflix to strengthen their stories.
When COVID forced things online, I found my groove teaching virtual workshops and coaching founders on captivating storytelling. 

I strongly believe the stories we tell shape our realities. I will die on that hill.
By taking control of our narratives, we can shape how we and our businesses are perceived and attract our ideal customers. In other words, we CAN control our destiny… through storytelling.

Meet Patrice

I am the kind of person who gets triggered when people say, ‘I don’t have a story.” 

I get so triggered by this that I have made it my life mission to prove anyone who claims this, and in fact, help them uncover their (very much not vanilla story.) 

After 6 years as an award-winning producer at the TODAY show in NYC, I saw firsthand the power of great storytelling for businesses and especially when the founders came on the show. 

I left at the peak of my career in 2016 after winning a Gracie Award for my storytelling to join a media startup.

The start-up job was in the most cliche way, horrific.
