Some stories need more than attention.
They need care.

Fragile Moments is a storytelling studio for the work that asks for steadiness — stories still forming, stories shaped by transition, stories that deserve to be carried with intention.
We create environments where narrative work is built thoughtfully, not rushed.

You’ve landed in the pause between what’s been and what’s next.
A place where your story doesn’t need to perform—it just needs to be heard.

There’s no one right way to begin.
Just a soft place to start.

A private, guided space to uncover, share, and soften the parts of your story that still feel heavy or hidden.
You don’t have to speak to feel seen. Our small, online community offers space to witness and be witnessed—at your own rhythm.
Begin where it’s safest. Stories from others can help us name things we don’t have words for yet.
Every story is alchemy waiting to happen.
The magic isn’t in fixing—it’s in finally being witnessed.

What is Storytelling Alchemy?
Storytelling Alchemy isn’t therapy, coaching, or performance. It’s a series of intimate conversations where your story finds a gentle container—a space to explore, heal, and connect.
Over several sessions, we listen deeply, reflect together, and help you transform what feels heavy into something you can hold with more ease.
Whether you want to share your story publicly one day, or simply find peace with parts of it, this process meets you where you are.

Not ready to speak your truth?
Listening is its own kind of bravery.
Sometimes hearing someone else say it first makes us feel safe enough to feel it, too.

A space where healing meets voice.
Every week, we sit down with artists, thinkers, and everyday humans to ask one gentle question:
“What’s the story beneath the surface?”
These are conversations about, memory, identity, and the courage it takes to speak truth aloud.

I believe the most fragile moments often carry the most powerful truths.
And I’m here to hold them with you.

Hi, I’m J.D.
I’m a Montessori dad, storytelling alchemist, and holder of fragile moments. I believe stories are the gentle threads that weave us together—especially the ones that feel too heavy to share elsewhere.
Through Fragile Moments, I create spaces where your story is met with kindness, honesty, and care.
No pressure, no fix-it mode—just presence.
