Welcome to Storywise
Storyteller
Pauline Seebregts
Performance …
My name is Pauline Seebregts. As a professional storyteller I like to create and tell inspiring stories. I search until I find words and images that fit the occasion and that touch head and hearts. Whether it is a story performance, a lecture on a specific topic by stories or an inspirational session.
… and Process Guidance
As a trainer and coach I guide teams and groups through Storytelling and dialogue. A process that leads to better collaboration, communication and connection.
I see it happening again and again! When people really start telling their own story, they touch the other person. Whether that is as a director for your organisation or as a colleague in your team
Stories in ‘Small Circles’ …
I also enjoy telling meaningful stories in small circles. For a special occasion, such as a wedding, funeral, birth, anniversary or birthday. Or a meaningful transition in your organisation. Do you want a special ritual? I accompany you!
I would be happy to help you decide which story is appropriate for you, your team, organisation or community!
What I can offer!

Giving meaning to stories
‘Social stories and social relevant themes
are close to my heart!’
a small selection;
* after the first lock-downs, I provided narrative evaluations for healthcare workers. This brought renewed connection in the care teams.
* together with refugees, we worked on raising awareness through their stories in schools to educate students.
* as a storyteller I took part in a social design project about loneliness, to make the subject more open for discussion.
* I wrote a future story in the context of sustainability for a municipality. It stimulated the imagination!
* I organized a story project in a women’s prison. It contributed to more self-esteem and confidence.
‘People make stories and stories make people. Stories weave the fabric of our identity…’
