Language evolved in our species to connect us together.
That’s why it works so much better to share the journey to naming your work and defining your Ground Truth.
Join this intimate cohort and emerge with clarity, conviction, and precision.
Hey. I’m Dana Ray!
My work is about naming our ineffable realities so we’re less alone with life’s complexities. My job is to find the words that tell the true story of what your work is about and why it matters.
I’ve done this as a language strategist for unboxable leaders, those who just can’t and won’t be confined in who they are and what they want to create.
I’m also a writer who explores body-ness, disability, gender, and spirituality.
How It’s Going to Work
Week 1: The Power of Language
Learn how our brains are structured to connect with language and how to make your words work for you.
Week 2: Try It On
Write your Ground Truth drafts and try them on to test and evaluate.
Week 3: Coaching Week
Process and Revise your Ground Truth statement 1-1 with Dana Ray.
Week 4: Translation
Turn your newfound clarity into strong content and public storytelling!
THE RESULT: Long Term Clarity and Impact
“I think about my Ground Truth every day. It informs everything I do.”

Not the right time for you?
Start with the book! Go through it with your friends or business network or mastermind!
wrote this because a rich relationship with your words, work, and self shouldn’t be kept behind the high cost of consulting and cohorts.
This book is truly everything I know about language, identity, and personal storytelling.
Now in luxurious print form! (We’ve tested it—stick your nose in the spine for peak experience.)
Because of the nature of printing and publishing these days, this is a limited run of 60 copies. When they are gone, they are gone.
