"Sometimes, to survive, a person needs a story more than food."

— Barry Lopez

For as long as we have gathered around fires, we have told stories to make sense of suffering and to heal wounds that medicine cannot reach. It is how we process experience and find meaning when life turns chaotic.

Narrative therapy research backs this up: when you put a problem into a story, you gain distance from it. Instead of being stuck inside the struggle, you can see it from the outside and change it.
