✨ The Origin Story Builder

Turn experience into impact.

Every powerful business begins with a lived moment — a real shift that changed what became possible. Your Origin Story isn’t about drama. It’s about clarity: where you once stood, what shifted, what became possible, and why you now do this work.

đź§­ How to use this tool

  • Move through the five steps in order.
  • Write naturally — don’t over-polish. Clarity first, refinement later.
  • Aim for 5–8 sentences per step. Keep it concrete.
1) The Problem You Were Struggling With

Set the scene. What challenge were you facing that your audience recognises in themselves?

2) The Low-Point

The moment it became undeniable. Not drama — truth. Let us feel the weight.

3) The Turning-Point

The decision, discovery, or encounter that changed the direction. This is where hope enters.

4) The Result

Show the contrast: external results (what changed) + internal shift (who you became).

5) The Ripple Effect

Connect your transformation to your mission. How does it now serve others — and why does it matter?

đź’ˇ Principles before you begin

  • Write like a human, not like a brand.
  • Choose clarity over cleverness.
  • Use concrete details instead of vague claims.
  • Don’t try to impress — aim to resonate.
