The Epiphany Lab Gives Your Strategic Planning an Exponential Leap Forward

It’s about discovering who we are, our gifts and what we believe in.
We help individuals, teams, and organizations SEE, SHAPE, and SHARE their stories with the people they need to connect with most.
Your Evolution Story (YES) is a guided storytelling process for teams and leaders that delivers what we all crave most: purpose, connection, and impact.
- Engage your team with each other and with the bigger picture of your organization.
- Acknowledge the individual and collective challenges, successes, and changes your team has experienced.
- Give your team a new story that propels them into the future.
- Capture the lessons learned and the wisdom gained.
Facilitated YES sessions and team workshops are designed to guide you to discover what drives you, what lights you up and how your WHY connects to the team and the work you are doing.
In times of change, we all want to know that what we do is meaningful and your evolution story (YES) allows you to connect and form a sense of shared purpose and direction.
“Creativity is unleashed not only through the mindset we engage… but the environments we create.”
