regeNarratives
Stories are not merely artifacts; they are living ecosystems.
When told with intention, they have the power to heal, connect, and breathe life into the spaces we inhabit.
At regeNarrative consulting, we believe that the future of communication must shift from extractive attention-seeking to restorative world-building.
By mapping regenerative principles onto the art of storytelling, we help aligned partners unearth their truest essence and translate it into narratives that sustain, nourish, and endure.
Our Mission
To cultivate vibrant media ecosystems where regenerative principles, social impact, and visionary storytelling converge.
Drawing from a rich compost of cross-disciplinary expertise, we guide aligned partners in crafting media that does more than consume space, it revitalizes the culture.
We are dedicated to shaping the future of the media landscape by designing narratives that sustain a distinct eco-niche, foster deep interconnectedness, and seed positive impact for generations to come.
The Soil of Our Experience
A thriving ecosystem requires diverse, nutrient-dense soil. regeNarrative consulting is the synthesis of the storied careers of founders Wilson Stiner and Latoya Hawthorne-Stiner. Navigating terrains that span nimble startups to internationally recognized entities, we bring together a rare, symbiotic blend of disciplines:
Wilson Stiner brings over twenty years as a writer, director, and editor, shaping narrative and documentary films for impact-driven brands and creatives. He approaches his work the way a steward approaches the land: stripping away the noise to find the essential pulse, and stitching together images, sound, and structure until a story feels emotionally honest and inevitable. His active leadership in climate reality, inclusive futures cohorts, and environmental advocacy grounds his creative vision.
Latoya Hawthorne-Stiner is a seasoned social impact strategist driven by a passion for empowering underserved communities and supporting environmental causes. Her background roots our practice in structural integrity, having successfully co-developed enterprises and workforce development programs that directly supported women experiencing homelessness. She ensures that the operational reality of an organization matches the beauty of its outward messaging.
Together, we blend the visionary edge of audiovisual storytelling with the restorative depth of social enterprise and conscious team building.
Our Synthesizing Funnel
We do not believe in infinite, unsustainable growth. We believe in longevity, rhythm, and profound resonance. Through our synthesizing funnel of experience, we guide partners through a series of methods designed to clarify their purpose, serve their specific eco-niche, and position their enterprise for lasting impact.
1. Root Systems Analysis
Before anything can bloom, we must understand the soil. Drawing from our background in community empowerment and environmental stewardship, we practice radical, active listening. We strip away industry jargon and superficial metrics to uncover the essential, beating heart of your organization. We identify your true eco-niche, the specific place in the cultural landscape where your offering is most needed and naturally sustained.
2. Narrative Cultivation
A story must be embodied to be felt. Utilizing Wilson's extensive background in directing and editing, alongside Latoya's expertise in visual design and product marketing, we translate your root truth into a sensory experience. We prune away the visual and auditory noise, designing a digital presence that is sharp, inviting, and harmoniously aligned with your core values.
3. Structural Resilience
A regenerative narrative cannot survive in a toxic operational environment. True storytelling is fractal; the inside must reflect the outside. Latoya draws upon her deep experience in building and managing social enterprises to help you weave your narrative into the very fabric of your team culture. We implement principles that ensure your internal leadership and daily operations are as healthy and regenerative as your outward messaging.
4. Impact Positioning
The future of media belongs to those who understand their interconnectedness. We help you map your relationships with your audience, your community, and the broader world. By shifting the focus to long-term stewardship, we position your brand to weather cultural shifts, adapt with grace, and leave a lasting, positive imprint on the world.
