Struggling in your relationships —
even though you care and you’re trying?

StoryFORMULA: Relationships is a live, guided program led by Dr. Julie Helmrich that helps people understand what keeps going wrong — and begin changing it.

Most people don’t struggle in their relationships because they don’t care.

They struggle because the same moments keep pulling the same reactions — even when they know better and want something different.

What this program actually focuses on

Most relationship advice focuses on what to say or do differently.

StoryFORMULA focuses on something deeper:

We work with the internal story shaping how you react in the moments that matter most.

That story determines what feels true, possible, or threatening in real time —

and it’s why the same situations keep producing the same reactions,

even when you care deeply and want something different.

When the story shifts,

new responses become available — naturally.

OUR SIGNATURE YEAR-LONG PROGRAM With three enrollment windows

Story Formula

If you're not living the life you'd thought you'd be living by now, you might have to improve one or more of these three areas and "get above the line" with respect to your health, quality relationships, and your career. Story Formulators use our "More Map" framework to sequentially shift their internal narratives and make significant progress in all of those areas. We are going for enduring change because we are not in the business of quick fixes. If that sounds good to you, click below to join us:

What support actually looks like inside StoryFORMULA

Narrative shifting seminars

Weekly 90-minute live Zoom sessions with Dr. Julie Helmrich that combine scientific psychology, guided reflection, small-group dialogue, and Q&A.

Relationship-focused implementation session

A dedicated live session designed specifically for StoryFORMULA: Relationships, where we slow down and work through how the narrative-shifting tools apply to your real relationship dynamics.

Weekly journaling prompts & reflections

Each week, you’ll receive thoughtfully designed journaling prompts and reflection questions that help you notice patterns, make meaning of your experiences, and stay connected to the narrative-shifting work between live sessions.

These are not busywork or assignments — they’re invitations to slow down, reflect, and integrate what you’re learning into your real relationships.
