“Story is a search for community.
Open your mouth, grab a pen, type on the keyboard—
sing out who you are.”
Christina has devoted her life to fostering the power of story and facilitating the power of community.
As a leader in personal writing and a teacher of creative nonfiction, Christina has companioned thousands of people to claim their life stories.
For twenty-five years she taught The Circle Way as collaborative practice, to leaders in education, healthcare, business, government, and community action.
She interacts globally through podcasts, videos, and emeritus mentoring in her bodies of work.
Here in this site, you will find books, reader guides, handouts, and media from years of teaching and soon, a section devoted to her upcoming novel.

“The story that gets one person through makes a map
for getting the next person through.”
