FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
still have questions?
Whether you’re here for yourself, your team,
or your next event, here are some of the things people often want to know before working with me.
01 — The Basics
Working with Nimarta
& StorySharing™
Who is Nimarta Verma?
I’m the founder and creator of StorySharing™, a facilitator, leadership coach, and two-time Stevie Award winner. I’ve spent two decades shaping brand narratives for global companies like Unilever and Woolworths.
Now I help leaders, teams, and organisations use their real stories to build connection, trust, and culture that sticks.
How is StorySharing™ different from storytelling?
Storytelling is performed for an audience. It’s crafted to persuade, polished and impressive, with the spotlight on the person telling the story.
StorySharing™ is shared with the people you lead. It’s honest, human, and sometimes imperfect. The story becomes a mirror where others see themselves.
The difference isn’t technique. It’s intention.
How can I work with you?
There are a few ways.
If you’re an individual leader or founder, I offer one-on-one coaching and my free 5-day email course is a good place to start. If you’re looking to bring StorySharing™ into your organisation or team, I offer workshops and facilitated programs.
And if you’re looking for a speaker for your next event, I’m available for keynotes and conference sessions.
The best place to start is a conversation. Get in touch and we’ll work out what fits.
Do you work with individuals as well as organisations?
I work with both. Individuals who want to find and use their story, and organisations and teams who want to build trust and connection at a cultural level.
Where are you based and do you work with clients internationally?
I’m based on the Central Coast, New South Wales.
I work with clients across Australia and internationally, both in person and virtually.
02 — For You
Individuals
Who do you work with individually?
I work with leaders, founders, and rising professionals who feel like their work isn’t being seen the way it deserves to be. People who are good at what they do but struggle to talk about it, advocate for themselves, or connect with the people around them in a meaningful way.
Do I need to be in a leadership role to work with you?
No. I work with people at all stages, from those stepping into leadership for the first time to senior executives who have been leading for decades.
What can you help me with?
I help you find the stories only you can tell, learn how to share them with confidence and intention, and use them to build trust, visibility, and connection in the rooms that matter to you. Whether that’s a team, a client relationship, a job interview, or a conference stage.
What if I know I need to be more visible, but I don't know where to start?
That’s exactly where most people are when they come to me. You don’t need to have it figured out.
The first step is usually a conversation to work out what’s getting in the way and what would make the biggest difference.
From there we find a path that fits.
What does working with you one-on-one look like?
Once we’ve worked out what you’re working towards, we find the right format, whether that’s a focused session to work on one specific story, a short series of Zoom calls, or something more sustained. We design around you and what’s going to create the most impact.
03 — For The Room
Organisations
& Teams
What types of organisations and teams do you work with?
I work with organisations of all sizes, from small businesses and startups to large corporates and multinationals.
The common thread isn’t size or industry. It’s leaders who want their people to connect more authentically, communicate more effectively, and build cultures where trust is real.
What can you help our organisation or team with?
I help organisations build the kind of trust and connection that doesn’t come from a team building day.
Through StorySharing™, leaders learn to communicate in a way that creates psychological safety, strengthens team connection, and shapes culture from the inside out.
The work shows up in meetings, in how people talk to each other, and in how the organisation tells its story to the world.
What does working with you look like for an organisation or team?
Depending on what you’re after, I design something that fits your context, whether that’s a half-day workshop, a full-day deep dive, or a six-month leadership program.
See my programs.
Can programs be tailored to our organisation or team?
Yes. Everything I do is designed around your context, your people, and what’s going to create lasting change. I don’t deliver off-the-shelf programs. I build to what you actually need.
We know something needs to change, but we're not sure what our team needs. Can you help?
Yes. That uncertainty is actually a good place to start. I’ll ask the right questions to help us work out what’s underneath it and what would make the most difference.
You don’t need to have it figured out before you get in touch.
04 — For Your Event
Speaking
What types of events do you speak at?
I speak at conferences, leadership events, and corporate team days.
Can you tailor her talk to our audience or event?
Yes. Every keynote I deliver is built around your audience, your objectives, and the moment you want to create. If you know what you need, I’ll build to it.
Do you speak in person and virtually?
Both. I speak in person across Australia and internationally. If you’re outside Australia, I’m happy to travel for the right event. And if virtual works better for your event, that’s absolutely an option too.
Get in touch to discuss what works best.
What can our audience expect from a session with you?
Not another talk about communication skills. Something more fundamental than that. Your audience will leave with a shift in perspective, a practical framework they can use immediately, and more often than not, a story of their own they didn’t know they had.
Can you combine a speaking engagement with a workshop or facilitated session?
Yes. A keynote can be a powerful starting point, and a workshop or facilitated session the same day or following day can take that further. Many of my clients find the combination creates the deepest impact.
