- Book 1 of 1: Stories that Heal
Stories heal. Stories inspire. Stories reveal who we are.
From the tales passed down through families to the quiet inner narratives that guide our choices, stories help us understand what we stand for—and what we are capable of becoming. Yet some of the most powerful stories are the ones left unspoken.
What hidden stories are shaping your life?
In Untold and Retold, a collective of courageous voices explores the profound role storytelling plays in our lives, and how personal transformation stories can encourage others. Each chapter shares deeply human experiences of challenge, change, healing, and awakening. This book illuminates the importance of acknowledging that seemingley small events can make a huge impact on our lives. You will discover:
- How the stories we tell ourselves shape our emotional world
- Why sharing our truth creates connection and belonging
- The transformative power of perspective
- What becomes possible when hidden experiences are finally given a voice
Compassionate, thought-provoking, and deeply inspiring, Untold and Retold is an invitation to listen to your intuition, find the courage to share your story, and honour the stories that make us human.
Because the story you're holding onto may be the very one someone else needs to hear.

Reviews:
“This forthcoming collaboration reads like a gentle hand on the shoulder at exactly the right moment. From Debs Penrice’s opening pages, the book makes it clear that stories are not just things we tell, but living energies that shape, heal, and reconnect us to ourselves. What makes this book special is its quiet inclusivity: there is no single path to healing here, only an invitation to notice what resonates and leave the rest. The short stories feel intimate and generous, designed to spark recognition, comfort, and hope. You may see yourself in one chapter, or feel nudged by another to honour a story you’ve kept hidden. Ultimately, this book reminds us that meaning is still unfolding, and that every one of us has something valuable worth sharing”. Phil Evans
"The perfect companion to a Sunday. This book took me to places I didn’t expect, feeling things I recognised to my very core. Messages from worthiness to purpose, misguided focus to forgiveness, all rooted in the deepest raw honesty. " Becca Brooks
"I felt like reading this book was a real indulgence, investing time in just reading for pleasure and just thinking about each story and what it meant for me. It offered me space to pause and think and I particularly enjoyed the questions at the end of each story - and liked they weren't always the same.The Reflecting story made me laugh and this was welcome."
