Welcome!
Little Mountains hopes to empower people to reshape the the world through their self-expression and storytelling. We believe that the stories we tell, whether in books, on billboards or around a bonfire, matter and shape society.
We believe that for individuals, there is no greater agony than bearing the unsaid inside you. We also believe that for society, stories are the communal currency of our humanity. And miscommunication? Well, it’s the main source of our collective problems. (Maya Angelou, Tahir Shah and Earl Sweatshirt agree with us, and that’s why they said all that first).
We want to support you find the words, time, and medium, to say the things you want to say.
A Bit About Me.
My name is Matisse, I am a mother, daughter, wife, sister, friend, writer, entrepreneur, and lover of life. I was raised on a beach in Fiji, and have spent most of my time using (lots of) words in various ways. Some useful. Some not so much.
From a journalism degree, to telling stories via working in TV and radio, to international NGOs, diplomatic agencies, mentorships, workshops, and even from a ship at one point, for over a decade I have been encouraging brands and humans to express themselves. Honestly. Effectively. Bravely.
Along the way, I have developed my own way to do things. My own conscious communication practise, that attempts to absorb and articulate the wisdom from both the outside and the inside. Then lather it in joy and grace. I call it warm talk. I am still learning how to tell better stories everyday. I made Little Mountains so maybe we can learn together.
Xx
