After scrolling through and being tired of the same “success” stories online, Steven and Elina wanted to share the journeys of their amazing friends. We wanted to celebrate people who are social workers, local artists and local politicians, sex workers and teachers.

We also wanted to see more diverse stories! These narratives are rarely shared in the media, making us feel like we are not good enough unless we fit into a very narrow measure of success.

We did our first interviews for Storyo in June 2019 and have been hooked on it ever since!

Our Story

What we do

At Storyo, we’re all about sharing the raw and honest sides of everyone’s journey—because let’s face it, we’re all figuring things out together!

The stats on gender and ethnic pay gaps, hiring practices, and community violence highlight big structural issues. Our mission is to spark a culture shift—changing attitudes, behaviours, and what we value in success and representation.

‍Storyo isn’t just a digital platform; we bring people together through events, workshops, and good chats over kai and art. Come join us!
