“We chose Kardia because we wanted a personalized experience for our first book. We got that and more; they answered all of our questions, suggested answers to questions we hadn’t thought of, and cheered on our progress throughout the whole process. We recommend Kardia House wholeheartedly for a customized and painless publication experience.”
Dr. Kristen Donnelly, co-Author, The culture of burnout
Writing and communication shape our world. Words form and shape who we are and who we become. Our purpose is to publish meaningful, impactful storytelling through non-fiction books and collections of speeches, sermons, liturgies, and poetry that lead us to re-imagine our world through a lens of inter-connection, healing, and generosity.
The communities and organizations we belong to shape our world. The frameworks we build around our stories and conversations help us process our experiences. We offer consulting, trainings, and retreats to help create brave spaces that reframe and nurture new conversations. We also offer empowering tools and resources for learning more generous models of communication.
I have been fortunate to work with, and learn from, Sharyl in multiple settings over several years. Sharyl excels in communicating with diverse audiences and connecting across differences. Whether in a classroom, a church or at a community event, Sharyl is someone I trust to bring wisdom, humility, and sensitivity.

I had not worked with Josh before our Vestry was charged with coming up with a budget proposal for a growing church facing uncertain financial times. It was a daunting prospect until Josh stepped in and led us through a values-based discussion. Not only was the process one of the best I’ve ever been through, but the church members responded enthusiastically, exceeding that 20% request. I cannot recommend Josh strongly enough if you or your organization needs to have tough but important conversations designed to lead to growth.

Guest presenters Sharyl and Josh spoke brilliantly to the class about the inner and outer work of deliberative democratic engagement and the reshaping of the imaginal realm through daily practices of nonviolent communication.
