Storytelling Coaching
Whether you’re building a brand, leading change, or navigating a professional shift, your narrative shapes how others see you.
I help you find your story, structure it, and tell it in an engaging way. Through coaching or workshops, we turn reflection into resonance and make your story work.
for Changemakers
Founders, entrepreneurs and business leaders navigating transitions, launches or reinvention.
for Marketers
Brand builders and marketing specialists seeking sharper stories, stronger positioning and creative clarity.
for Creators
Designers and content creators who want their work to not just look good, but to resonate and be remembered.
I’m Nick Lievendag, brand & creative strategist and lifelong believer in the power of a well-told narrative.
For nearly two decades, I’ve helped brands, founders, and creative teams turn complex ideas into clear, compelling stories. With a background that blends storytelling, design thinking, and creative technology, I bring both structure and spark to the process.
Neat Narrative is where I help others find their red thread, and shape what’s next.
“Great stories happen to those who can tell them”

1:1 Coaching
Whether you’re marketing a brand, product, service or simply yourself, a few coaching sessions tailored to your needs and experience will help you for the rest of your professional (and personal) life.
Inspiration Sessions
The basics of storytelling are incredibly easy to learn. And, with the help of today’s AI tools, also easy to implement. If your teams are still selling facts, an eye-opener with actionable tips can have a big impact.
Team Workshops
Before telling your story, you must find it, and structure it. I help multidisciplinary teams distill your brand’s story and tell it in a way that your audience will understand and remember.
“Nick creates magic. Give him a few paragraphs, and he delivers an impactful, professional story that hits the mark every time. His rare blend of business insight, creativity, and sharp process makes him a go-to for any company that wants to truly connect.”
