Third Space Narrative

We help organisations turn lived experience into clear decisions, ethical storytelling, and programs people trust.

Welcome

to Third Space Narrative

The Third Space is where identity, culture, and power get negotiated in real time

Third Space Narrative is a consulting and storytelling practice built for the in between.
The place where people negotiate identity, power, belonging, and systems simultaneously.

We help you move from scattered stories to shared meaning.
Then we turn that shared meaning into decisions, services, and campaigns that hold up under pressure.

We do not “extract stories.” We build story systems.
Ethical, community-led, and designed to protect dignity while still driving action.

Explore Our How We Work

Cultural Narrative Exchange Workshops

Facilitated story spaces where communities share lived experience safely, name what is true, and build shared language across difference. Outcome: trust, cohesion, and a clearer collective story.

Impact Storytelling For Social Change

Narrative strategy and ethical story development for nonprofits, social enterprises, and government initiatives. Outcome: community voice stays central, funders and stakeholders hear the truth clearly, and the story drives action.

Storytelling For Inclusive Leadership

Coaching and training for leaders and teams to communicate with clarity, build belonging, and lead change without performative language. Outcome: stronger trust, better alignment, and messages people can repeat.

All three services run through one method: Listen to the problem and pursuit, paint the picture, then propose the next step.

OUR METHOD

Listen. Picture. Propose.

Most communication fails because it starts with telling.
We start with listening.

We map the audience’s problem (where they are now) and pursuit (where they want to be).
Then we build a story people can feel, remember, and repeat.
Then we make a clear proposal that fits the moment and earns a real yes.

  • Listen first: problem + pursuit, real language, real stakes

  • Paint the picture: a specific person, specific tension, specific feelings

  • Propose the next step: a decision, an action, a partnership, a shift

“Not a people problem. It’s a system problem. Story helps us see the system, name the pattern, and choose the right intervention.”

READY TO START

Start with a Clarity Call. Leave with a next step.

If you’re building programs, campaigns, or partnerships across multicultural reality, you do not need more noise.
You need a story people trust and a system that can carry it.

In one session we will:

  • Name the real problem (not the symptom)

  • Identify your audience’s problem and pursuit

  • Choose the one story you should tell next, and the one proposal it should lead to
