"You have the power to take control of your own story and rewrite your destiny." - Oprah Winfrey
What is Story Alchemy?
Story Alchemy is a journey into the essence of who you are and the stories that shape you. It's not about surface-level changes or quick fixes. You are not broken and you do not require fixing. Rather, it's a deep dive to understand and unravel the narratives that keep you stuck and no longer serve you so you feel empowered to write a story that speaks to the core of your being.
I am ready to change my narrative, break free from limitations and create a vibrant life on purpose.

"Our brains allow us not only to create our personal story of self but to edit, interpret, and find meaning in what we are creating." ― Sandra Marinella, The Story You Need to Tell: Writing to Heal from Trauma, Illness, or LossYour words are powerful.
You are only one insight away to bridging the gap from where you are to where you want to be.
Your Stories Define You
Our lives are a collection of stories – narratives we've adopted and internalized, often without conscious awareness. These stories shape our beliefs, decisions, and actions. Story Alchemy is about becoming the author of your own narrative, reclaiming the power to shape your destiny.
Together, we gently peel back the layers, unveiling the tales that have been the guiding force in your life. We sift through the wisdom, the challenges, and the triumphs to uncover the authentic narrative that awaits.

About me
If you are new to my world, my name is Marie-Josee.
I am a mom of two beautiful girls, wife to an amazing husband, and creator of a life I love to wake up to every day.
I am a published author, speaker, course creator, and workshop facilitator.
We live part of the year on a beautiful island in the Caribbean called Montserrat and the other part in Toronto, Canada.
I have a double major in Mathematics and Computer Science from the University of Western Ontario.
I spent the first half of my career working hard to prove myself and feel worthy to take up space. I worked so hard that life became barely worth living.
I felt weighed down by overwhelming amounts of sadness, anger, and depression. Life became unbearable, and I felt so disconnected from my dreams and the vision of the person I thought I was or should be that I decided to end it all.
And that's when I thought, "If I am going to end it all anyway, why not live in the meantime? Why not give myself permission to live my life how I want, to live, love and laugh again? Because then, if it doesn't work out, I'll have nothing to lose and can end it."
Fortunately, in my desire to live, I found a new zest for life and realized who I was, who I had always been, beneath all other people's ideas of who I should be.
Then, sadly, in 2016, my mother passed away prematurely from pancreatic cancer. She was only fifty-eight, and she had never freed herself of the stress, anger, or depression that had plagued her all her life.
That's when I finally spurred myself into action. I realized the finiteness of life and threw away all the reasons why not and committed to pursue all the reasons why. I committed to empowering women to break the chains that keep them stuck by writing a new, more empowering story.
My superpowers are faith, love, authenticity, energy, and playfulness. I use these to create online spaces for people to connect, write their stories and practice spontaneity and authenticity through play so they can remember who they are and create their most vibrant lives.
Because as Howard Thurman has pointed out, that's what the world needs – people who have come truly alive. That is the only thing that can change and heal the whole world – when you remember who you are and reconnect to all your superpowers.
You get one chance at this life. So, live boldly, live passionately, and live with purpose.
If you feel stuck, don't waste the precious time given to you - let's get you back into the flow of life.
I am ready to change my story!
