A Storyteller’s Journey
I approach our client sessions through the lens of a journalist rather than just a marketer.
But how did my storytelling journey start?
My instincts trace back to when I was seven and the words I couldn’t accurately express through conversations, I’d spill onto loose-leaf papers. One by one, diaries were filled with imaginative stories and day-to-day perceptions. Every year I had to buy a new journal to document my story. The tradition still continues today.
In May 2020, little did I know that this predilection for weaving narratives together would lead me to publish my own life story in the form of the anthology, ‘Tell Her She’s Lovely’. The book, which you can learn about here, tracks transformative steps I took in my personal and professional life.
This confidence to start a task and see it through (publishing my book) inspired me to pursue my first freelance client on Upwork. As I interviewed her, connected the dots in her story, and repositioned her narrative, I realized there was a need to help many other entrepreneurs tell their story better to achieve their desired outcome.
Months later, as a journalist and certified storytelling coach, I began a business that has helped 200 clients see the value in their existing life experiences. From solopreneurs and small businesses to corporations, my services will help you turn your Stories into Sales®.

“Dhara is a great communicator and ready to lead your project to a successful result. Her curiosity and genuine interest towards my story sparked interesting conversations throughout the contract. From the first phone call, she was on point always asking me the right questions. I have only good things to say about Dhara's approach. Highly recommend for those who have key ideas but unsure how to weave everything together”

I love to travel. Who could forget all the frappé coffees in Greece?
I used to write so many poems from 2017 to 2019. This year I took a break to publish the book.
