Whether you're crafting your own story or looking to collaborate on something bigger — let’s explore what’s possible.

Why Storytelling Matters to Me

Veronica Antipolo, Filipina-Canadian storytelling coach, smiling to the camera

Hi, I’m Veronica Antipolo. Storytelling changed how I saw myself. Now I help others share their stories with courage and connection.

I'm a storyteller, coach, and facilitator. But mostly, I'm someone who believes in the power of a well-told, deeply honest story. Especially the kind that helps you feel more like yourself.

As a first-generation Filipina-Canadian, I know what it's like to grow up between cultures, identities, and expectations. Storytelling helped me make sense of all that. It helped me speak honestly and feel heard.

Now, I help people and organizations connect through story. Whether it’s a keynote, a workshop, or a one-on-one session, the process is where the real transformation happens.

Ways To Work Together

  • 1-on-1 Story Coaching

    Find, shape, and rehearse the story you need to tell—keynote, interview, or personal milestone.

  • Public Workshops

    Interactive sessions, online or in-person, that explore voice, identity, and the practice of personal storytelling. Length and focus vary, but every workshop draws on my story-first methodology to help you connect, create, and share in new ways.

  • Custom Workshops & Speaking

    Flexible, inclusive programs, online or on-site, that weave my storytelling methodology into interactive activities tailored to your team’s goals: culture-building, DEI, leadership.
