Daje James ~ The Story Doula
"I’m an artist, entrepreneur, and brand strategist who is wholly obsessed with helping creatives get their stories out in the most self-kind ways possible. I have spent the last eight years diving headfirst into the world of social media, digital marketing, and branding; and the last six years serving creative communities in the roles of Creative Director, Marketing Director, and Brand Strategist. My work as a storyteller has lead me into the classrooms of vibrant young people as well as into the learning spaces of men’s penitentiaries. I’ve shared in coffee shops, museums, and stages. I’ve worked with healers, activists, circus artists, theatre professionals, visual artists, and poets to help them speak wildly specific truths to their communities and inspire wonder in the online space."
