There is no greater agony than bearing an untold story inside of you - Maya Angelou
There is something uniquely transformative about sharing one's personal truth - one’s story. Beyond heritage and the ancient traditions of oral storytelling, there is a shared healing that transpires between a storyteller and her audience. In freeing herself of her testimony, the storyteller inadvertently grants her audience permission to curate, even share their own.
In the world of retail, storytelling isn’t just the evolved form of content marketing, rather its future. Just imagine... an engaged and connected marketplace where consumers are transacting stories first and products second.

GREAT STORIES INSPIRE GREAT TRANSFORMATION
When we engage with truly powerful stories, we bear the burden of new information that can’t be ignored. These stories empower us to lead more whole and intentional lives, causing us to ask bigger questions:
What are my family and I really consuming and putting on our bodies?
What institutions and values are we advancing with our dollars?
Do the brands we patronize represent our core values?
It is through these stories, the questions they inspire and the answers they reveal that we discover our own AlcheME: a slow yet persistent paradigm shift that over time results in new behaviors and choices that are in harmony with our convictions.
For all these reasons, sto-retail-ing™ is the lens through which oneKIN delivers ecommerce. We believe we can transform the people and world around us one story at a time.
