We answer some of your questions

Do I need to be a writer?

Not at all. Narrative Minds was created specifically to make telling your story feel manageable. Each week’s email guides you through the process with a main question, memory starters and gentle reflection guidance. You only need to bring your memories and tell them in your own words.

What exactly will I receive?

You’ll receive one guided Narrative Minds email each week.

Each week focuses on a different part of your life story and uses our Remember, Explore, Reflect and Preserve approach to help you uncover and capture a meaningful memory or experience.

Over 52 weeks, you’ll journey through eight chapters covering childhood, identity, adulthood, relationships, experiences, difficult seasons, beliefs, wisdom and legacy.

How long should each story be?

As long or as short as you want.

You might write a few paragraphs one week and several pages the next. Some stories may take ten minutes to capture. Others may inspire you to spend much longer.

There are no word counts or deadlines.

Where do I write my stories?

That’s entirely up to you.

You can use a notebook or journal, type them on your computer or phone, or record yourself speaking. Narrative Minds provides the guidance. You choose how you want to preserve your stories.

What happens if I choose the £9.99 monthly plan?

You’ll receive your Narrative Minds emails each week for as long as your monthly membership remains active.

If you cancel, future weekly emails will stop.

What happens if I pay £79.99 upfront?

Your complete 52-week Narrative Minds journey is covered by your one-off payment.

You’ll continue receiving your weekly guided emails for the full 52 weeks, with no additional subscription payments required.

Can I cancel the monthly plan?

Yes. You can cancel your monthly membership. Once cancelled, future Narrative Minds weekly emails will stop.

Can I give Narrative Minds as a gift?

Yes. Narrative Minds can make a meaningful gift for a parent, grandparent, partner, friend or anyone whose story deserves to be preserved.

Rather than giving them something that may eventually be forgotten, you’re giving them the encouragement to preserve something only they can create: their story.
