About us

Our Founder: Amanda

Amanda is a gardener of joy and frivolity, avid explorer of earth, sea and sky. She is not afraid to get colour in her soul and flowers in her hair.  An artist, educator, and storyteller who creates connections with people, the inner child and the land we live.

Rooted in a childhood shaped by natural systems thinking and expanded through a Master’s in strategic leadership toward sustainability, her ecological philosophy runs deep. Amanda is an experienced facilitator of learning experiences in music, nature and creative innovation.  She is a qualified Music specialist and artist. She is uniquely placed to blend art, pedagogy, ecology, systems thinking, and embodiment.  It’s re-enchantment through resonance.

She wrote Wild Weaver to help people reconnect with heart paths, kinship and belonging through ‘place’ based nature.  Time and attention are the left and right hands that guide towards coherence in chaotic times and lead us back to our own agency.  Her weekly invitations are breadcrumbs through playful portals, embodied explorations and paths less travelled. If you’ve ever stumbled into a mushroom ring and wished for an elf to guide you to the magic of wild places, that’s Amanda.

Who we are​

We are change-makers who believe that reconnection, to self, story, place, and community is not a luxury, but a necessity for a meaningful life and a liveable world .

Artful Narratives exists to offer people a path back to themselves: their real, feeling, powerful selves, not as isolated individuals, but as creators, witnesses, and stewards woven into the living tapestry of the earth. Because when we feel deeply, choose authentically, and live interdependently, we heal not only ourselves, but the world we belong to.
 
We exist to remind people they belong, to themselves, to each other, to the earth. Through authentic expression and interconnected living, you can create a life of meaning, courage, and beauty.

Our approach

Our Mission​
Artful Narratives exists to reconnect people with their creativity, their inner truth, and the living world around them, through nature-rooted, story-led, embodied experiences that honour rhythm over rush, meaning over metrics, and belonging over performance. ​

We guide people to reclaim their voice, realign with what matters, and live in right relationship with themselves, their community, and the Earth.

When people feel safe to express who they truly are, not who they were told to be, they can create lives that are beautiful, regenerative, and deeply fulfilling and this impacts everyone and everything around them.

Our Vision​
We want to create a world where Sustainability starts from within. ​

We want to see people re-writing their own definition of success on their own terms through a deeper sense of belonging, connection to themselves, the people around them and the planet we live on. We want to help people reclaim their authentic expression, align their life with their values, and live with renewed meaning, belonging, and resilience.

Artful Narratives is cyclical, embodied, and rooted in personal and ecological interconnection, honoring inner truth, not external metrics.
