The Story Solution
A coaching programme for parents.
...Launching Soon....
Raising a child does not have to be a power struggle. Gone are the days of traditional, authoritarian parenting that end with parents feeling guilty, while children feel misunderstood.
There is another, more peaceful and constructive way of communicating values to our children.
The solution lies in stories.
The Story Solution for Parents is a new coaching programme that offers an opportunity to exchange parenting confusion, fatigue and guilt for more family connection and magic. It’s about introducing healthy habits, building family rituals that keep us together, and making beautiful memories that will last a lifetime.
The programme was created by professional storyteller Dr Giuliana Fenech, founder of storytelling platform Lignin Stories. She uses her twenty years of research and experience to support parents who care about connecting with their children but are struggling to do so due to life’s pressures and the curse of self-doubt.
The Story Solution for Parents is made up of three parts: Starter, Deep Dive, and Deluxe. Each part includes coaching modules for parents and story resources for children, as well as group coaching with Giuliana.
The programme leaves you with a powerful library of original stories and new memories of shared connection that your child will treasure forever.

Deluxe
During this final part, parents will create a memory box for their children. Now you have understood how storytelling works and you understand your children’s preferences better so we help you to create a bespoke memory box for your children to treasure forever.
Throughout this process, the whole family honours the child's journey of connection between their inner world and the outer world around them, including the important role that their parents and siblings play in this life journey. This is done through established rituals and story tokens that feature their favourite characters and moments in the story.
This part creates forever memories for you and your children – it gives you control over your parenting journey, it allows you to give your very best to your child through deep moments of connection and understanding.
