I'M READY TO START NOW!
You’re a quiet rebel, a savvy business owner making moves. The world knows you’re good at what you do.
YOU know you’re BRILLIANT.
But when you open Instagram or Mailchimp to share your work — you go blank. Inspiration gives way to fear. You feel a little lost, a lot overwhelmed, and exhausted AF from trying to do All. The. Things. you THINK you have to do to grow.
If you hear one more self-proclaimed 'online expert' say, "just tell your Story!" you're gonna lose it.
What does that even MEAN? Where do you even START? Why does this feel so HARD?
I see you, biz bestie. And I’ve got you.
Activate your business from a place that finally feels 100% you
Unlock Your Soulful Potential With
The Power of Story
- brittany hachey, Holistic Relationship Coach
“Erin’s process pulled out of me what I could never have been able to uncover myself. She brought my soul into the light … and now it makes perfect sense. I am so lit up to start serving the world in a more expansive way.”
But if you’re being honest … nothing feels further from reality.
Instead, you’re having thoughts like:
➡️ “I don’t have a Story to tell. Why would anyone care what I have to say?”
➡️ “Ugh, telling my Story means airing my dirty laundry. No thanks.”
➡️ “I know I should post on social so I open my phone, upload a generic quote and call it a day.”
➡️ “I’ve literally tried everything to get aligned in my business and nothing seems to click.”
➡️ “I just need a better content strategy and help to organize my systems.”
Newsflash:
Living your passion, your purpose, and sharing your Story is supposed to be fun, easy, and freeing
You didn’t start your business to use it as armor
If I had a $1 for every content strategy my clients created before coming to me ...
And starting without a Story strategy is like trying to jump hurdles from a standstill. You’re gonna trip.
Why? Because your content strategy is a tactic ... it’s only as good as the platform or tool it’s built on. It’s polished to look like you’re only made of superficial good.
Problem is:
content is NOT Story.
It’s a principle … more full, more holistic. It lasts longer and withstands shifts in tactics and the market. Stories create a lasting connection. Embody the good and the bad. Dark and light.
You’re struggling because there’s a critical piece of the puzzle you’re not digging into and using to shine.
Your Story Strategy is a guiding force behind all you do.
It’s truly how YOU show up with confidence, clarity ... and giving zero f**cks.
But a Story strategy … that’s where the magic happens.

"I really discovered a bunch of things I would have NEVER thought about. I look at [content strategy] in a more confident mind frame. I'm more focused and less scared to attack things and get things done. My analytics are on fire now that I am posting and paying attention to HOW I post and it's making a huge difference.”
Story has been my constant companion my whole life. Between my grandmother - a librarian and my dad - a journalist, the concept of Story was everywhere *safe* for me.
She (as I like to refer to Story) is an embodiment of a person. I FEEL her presence. I SEE her in others.
When I work with my 1:1 clients to unearth their Stories, they tell me they find refuge in what we discover about them. They start to feel stable. Safe. They get in touch with the soul they haven’t been leveraging.
The Simple Story Solution is my soul. It’s my whole, deep process for helping YOU see, believe, and use the Story within.
Why I capitalize Story and the depths we will go…
- stephanie brown, physiotherapist
“My day with Erin was awakening. A stepping into my truest self. Her way with words is invigorating. I’ve never felt so seen and had such clarity about how to articulate what I do for a living. It was an emotional, clarifying, and grounding transformation.”

What To Expect When You Click “Enroll Now”
Hey there, it’s Erin.
My superpower: unicorn swirling, magic, story steam. No, for realz.
When you work through my process, it’ll feel different than any other program, strategist, or mentor. Cuz I’m all parts investigative journalist, business strategist, and Intuitive Story guide (with a splash of authentic hilarity and a heap of potty mouth).
Even though I’ve been “showing up” for the better part of my years on this planet ...
I’m right here with you on your journey to find alignment in your values. To get over your fear of showing your face and speaking your truth.
I’ve been shifting my Story for months. Stepping into my calling as a Story Strategist.
Getting clear that I’m here to be my best self for my clients and students (is that you?!).
To serve them MAGIC without compromise (to my health or my mental space).
To build a business that helps more women connect their Stories to their businesses to GROW (*cough* not to become slaves to work culture).
I’m doing it. And it feels AH-MAZING.
I sense you’re ready. To feel full. Complete. Like your Story matters.
Let’s lift you up and into your Stories, ya?
Peace and love,
Erin
Why there’s no better place to learn Story Strategy
• You’re looking for shiny checklists & templates. If you just want to get clicks and likes and become Insta-famous ... Mamma, that is not my style. The Stories you’ll uncover are yours alone. There’s nothing cookie-cutter about this program.
• You want someone to tell you what to post when. No content strategy calendars here, friend. But even better than that? Where I’m going to guide you, you won’t need a content calendar. Because we are going to give you the gift of a Story lens, so you’ll always be able to see and tell the Story.
• You aren’t ready to own your brilliance. If you know you’re brilliant, but you aren’t ready to show up and shine, then there’s some inner work to be done. This program is designed to guide you to that brilliance so you can see it, feel it and embody it in the Stories you confidently tell.
But if you’re legit done playing small and you’re bursting to show up as a leader in your life and business … I’ve got you.
A bit of tough love…
The Simple Story Solution isn’t your solution if:
- Mrugakshee Palwe & Keegan Francis, Atlantic Blockchain
“If I’m sitting on top of a compass and the needle for me was just spinning in all directions but Erin pointed out the north star and then it was just like, 'Oh! that’s where I’m supposed to be headed'.”
What happens after I enroll?
Once you check out and enroll, you’ll get full access to ALL program content, including the Selling With Story Bonus Module. You can roll through at a pace that suits you.
How long will it take me to finish the program?
That’s up to you. To get the most out of the program, you need to watch each video and do each exercise associated with the lessons. It’s designed as a 6-week Story lens development journey if you spend 1-2 hours on it each week.
What if I enroll and decide I made a mistake?
I know that if you take the step to enroll, there are Stories deep within you that you’re bursting to share with your people. Stories that will have a massive impact on your business growth. As this is an all-access, online program, there are no refunds once you log-in. But your satisfaction is important to our team, so please email us at team@erintrafford.com if you have any questions or concerns after you enroll.
Do I need to be a writer to use what I learn?
Absolutely not. But tell you what, if you don’t fancy yourself a writer now, once you unearth your juiciest, most impactful Stories — you feel like a writer as you share them authentically and easily with your audience.
Will you teach me where to use my Story?
The Simple Story Solution is a program designed to uncover and organize the Stories truest to you. The Stories that will create impact, resonance, and relevance so you can form meaningful connections with your customers and clients. Once you build your Story Bank, you’ll instinctively have a better understanding of where and when to use your Stories. Your BONUS Module 6: Selling With Story helps you start getting results from your Stories as soon as they’re ready to go.
