Carol Burbank
Carol Burbank is an award-winning writer, coach, and transformative educator. After 20 years of teaching, journalism, and scholarly research in leadership, business communication, cultural studies and education, she founded Storyweaving, LLC to nurture creative and sustainable change through consulting and coaching. In 2019, she launched the Storyweaving Retreat Center, a space for her clients and other seekers to gather, teach, write, and recharge.
Storyweaving combines Carol’s passion for writing, teaching, and mentoring with her vision that the our stories (conscious and unconscious, cultural and institutional, personal and family-based, evolving and foundational) are the templates for our lives and work. When we weave healthy stories into goals, habits, relationships, and choices, we support healthy change by choosing the better story for ourselves, our organizations, and our communities.
