Innovation Takes Courage
You've got a vision. An impact you crave to make. You define courage by the moments you stand in your difference (even if it means trembling) while the world around you changes. You're not just an entrepreneur, a creative, or a healer. You are a leader, a catalyst, a storyteller, a world-creator.
You may be playing small, leaving your difference and your true potential in the back closet somewhere. Or you're spinning your wheels, lacking the tools to get traction. You get distracted trying on other people's tactics as a poor substitute for your own deeper, aligned strategy that actually moves the needle.
I support visionaries like you to stand in your difference and design a congruent, world-making business through a mix of brand storytelling, leadership development, and business strategy.
I am Brave Narrative. Nice to make your acquaintance.

A Few Brave New Brands I’ve Launched
Nice to Meet You
Hi, my name is Alyssa Burtt. I'm the founder of Brave Narrative, and I'm glad you're here.
I have a BFA in fine arts, a diploma in graphic design, and in the last 12 years, I've built two brand, web design and online marketing consultancies. In May 2019, I finished an MBA in Design Thinking for Business Innovation from the California College of the Arts in San Francisco. I work with an archetypal branding system rooted in Jungian psychology (think Nike as a Hero brand), and my top 3 brand archetypes are the Visionary (aka Magician, who seeks a guiding vision and transformation), the Explorer (who loves to express their unique difference and do business their own way), and the Heroine (who attains mastery through acts of courage). I created Brave Narrative as a visionary, human-centred approach to business rooted in storytelling.
Visionary entrepreneurs work with me to discover their unique difference, articulate their vision for meaningful innovation, and design world-making businesses.
Given the chance, I could chat with you for hours on topics of bravery and entrepreneurship, vulnerability and innovation. I am interested in how people go about breaking the habit of playing small towards a bold new path of showing up and standing strong in a place of integrity, vision and true power. I think it takes a mix of courageous inner work and strategic outer work to believe in your dreams, and go after making them real.
