How I can help
The Cultivated
Storytelling Method
Stories have the power to drive action, build relationships, and influence positive outcomes by adding a spark to the information you want to convey. But what makes a story next level?

Create A Generative, Inventive Environment
What do the seeds of a next level story need to grow? How do you use stories to influence the action you seek whether that is raising funds, forming lasting relationships with your audience, or educating others about your mission? Take your story out of the box of what you think it should be to find out what it can be.
Ask…
What is the story of your organization?
What is the story of who you are?
Why are you passionate about your story?
What do you want your audience to feel?
What is the change you want to create with your audience, clients, customers, or donors?
What makes your story unique?
These answers lead to...
Producing Next Level, Impactful Stories
By unearthing your unique answers, you will discover your story’s spark. The details that tell an emotional, personal, motivating narrative that goes far beyond the dry facts. Your story’s spark builds connection, inspiration, and positive change leading to highly persuasive, unforgettable stories. Those are the stories that will drive results for non-profit, small business, educational, government, and professional association clients.


Why work with me?
Hi, I'm Danielle
My passion? Writing and storytelling. Taking ideas, thoughts, emotions and cultivating them into words, sentences, pages and then whole stories. From crafting my own stories, to helping clients elevate their unique narratives, to speaking in both small groups and the Moth Story Slam stage. I possess that unicorn set of abilities to thrive both in a solitary space, music on, keyboard clicking and clacking, words free-flowing, as well as in front of a crowd teaching, motivating, and advocating through storytelling.
In 2023, my professional journey as a litigation attorney, legal editor, nonprofit consultant, and writer led me to create Cultivated Storytelling, LLC. Looking for my career inspiration led me right back to what drives me every single day. Whether it is words or plants, cultivation and creation is when I am fully immersed in my flow state. The Cultivated Storytelling method produces narratives that spark connection, inspiration, and positive change by creating a generative, inventive environment. The seeds and the dirt are my inspiration, and the words and the stories are my work.
I needed someone who could listen deeply, capturing not only my words, but the essence in the meanings through well placed curious questions. Danielle did just that as we worked together to distill my story into its essential elements. One of my fears was having a writer who would recreate my story into a wretched form of words that were not mine. She took great care to ensure it was me on the page. I would recommend Danielle to anyone who needs not only a story, but their essence on the page.

After trying (unsuccessfully) to write my speaker sheet, Danielle perfected it while making it authentic using my voice. Her professionalism is top-notch, and she exceeded my expectations.
