Master Your Story.
Fuel Your Success!
Have you ever felt truly aligned—or can you remember the last time you did? A time when your actions, commitments, emotions, and energy all worked together effortlessly, with the right people supporting you?
Hi, I’m Jim Karwisch with Untangled Narrative. My job is to facilitate alignment through thoughtful reflection, intentional framing, and the development of practical tools and skill sets. The result is greater clarity and harmony in how you act, feel, connect, and move through life.
NarrativeOS: The Five Narrative Phases
A Guided Journey Through Your Story
Every one of us is shaped by a story—some of it helpful, some of it tangled. At Untangled Narrative, we walk you through five distinct phases that help you understand, examine, and reshape the story you’re living. Here’s where it begins:
1. Prepare Your Mind
🧠 Get grounded before diving in.
We slow things down and create space for self-awareness, curiosity, and kindness. This phase helps you clear the mental noise, so you can focus on what really matters.
2. Gather Your Narrative
📚 What story are you telling yourself?
We look at key moments, patterns, and emotions from your past and present. Together, we name the elements of your personal narrative—your goals, habits, emotions, and expectations.
3. Identify Your Tangles
🕸️ Where is your story holding you back?
We shine a light on confusing beliefs, stuck patterns, or conflicts between what you want and how you’re acting. These “tangles” are the knots that keep you from moving forward.
4. Untangle Your Narrative
🧵 Shift what no longer serves you.
Through questions, exercises, and perspective shifts, we help you reframe tangled parts of your narrative so they align with your values, identity, and future goals.
5. Fuel Your Success
🚀 Turn clarity into momentum.
You’ll build supportive systems, practice new skills, and take meaningful action. This phase is about gaining traction in the real world—and returning to these phases any time your story needs a tune-up.
