The Story Waiting to Live uses imagery, repetition, and increasingly expansive inquiry to help clients move beyond the first, most accessible answer and listen for what their goal may be revealing about who they are, what matters, what is asking to emerge, and what they are willing to bring into the world. 
This tool may be particularly useful when a client: knows they want something but cannot yet name it clearly; is reaching for clarity, motivation, conviction, or willingness; understands a goal intellectually but hasn't connected to what makes it meaningful; continues circling an idea without moving toward it; or senses that what they are exploring is about more than simply accomplishing a task.

The intention is not to lead the client toward action. It is to help them discover what the desire is asking of them—and allow action, if appropriate, to emerge from there.
