Storybank Builder Challenge

September 8 - October 7, 2026

Led by Rachel Bloom-Pojar, founder of Confianza Collective

You have years of experience, meaningful work, and stories that connect with people. But when it's time to write a post, prepare for a presentation, update your website, or apply for an opportunity, it can feel like you're starting from scratch.

The 30-Day Storybank Builder Challenge helps you capture, organize, and preserve the stories behind your work so they're easy to find whenever you need them. Over the course of one month, you'll build a storybank you can return to again and again for content creation, speaking, grant writing, marketing, interviews, and more.

This is for you if...

  • You're a founder, small business owner, or community leader who has lots of great stories but never enough time to get them written down.

  • You know your work is meaningful but struggle to remember the right examples when it's time to write or speak.

  • Your ideas are scattered across notebooks, voice memos, old presentations, and half-finished drafts.

  • Creating content feels more exhausting than it should because you're always reinventing the wheel.

What's getting in the way right now

It's not that you don't have stories. It's that:

  • your best experiences live in your memory instead of somewhere you can easily access,

  • writing content often starts with a blank page,

  • and you don't have a consistent process for capturing new stories before they're forgotten.

What changes after 30 days

Instead of wondering what to post or say next, you'll have:

  • A growing storybank organized around your experiences, values, and expertise.

  • Guided prompts that help you uncover stories you didn't realize were worth telling.

  • A practical system for documenting new stories as your work continues to evolve.

Your storybank can become the foundation for:

  • social media content

  • newsletters

  • keynote talks and workshops

  • podcast interviews

  • website copy

  • grant applications

  • media opportunities

  • thought leadership articles

  • and future books or courses

How it works

Over 30 days, you'll receive everything you need to build a storybank that continues growing long after the challenge ends:

  • 30 Days of Prompts to jumpstart storytelling that will connect with your audience

  • Guidance for how to record, transcribe, and organize your ideas and thoughts into a useable plug-and-play system

  • Three live sessions with Rachel to learn, ask questions, and connect with other founders. Mondays: 9/14, 9/21, and 9/28 from 6-7pm CST. These will be recorded and shared for anyone who couldn’t make it.

  • Weekly tips for how to create behind-the-scenes content to share what you’re working on with your audience even before the stories are ready

  • BONUS: One (1) free submission to Confianza Collective’s content review service for up to 30 days after the challenge ends

  • A solid foundation for your personalized storybank and a sustainable process to continue growing it in the future

About Rachel

Hi! I’m Rachel. I’m a small business owner, a mom of two boys, and a story strategist based in the greater Milwaukee area. For almost a decade, I worked as a writing professor and community-engaged researcher focused on language, translation, and community health promotion in Spanish speaking communities.

In 2024, I decided to leave my tenured faculty position to build Confianza Collective as a space for community rooted founders to get the stories behind their work written down. Bringing together my experiences as a researcher and writing teacher, I developed a storybank method to help busy founders and small business owners get more stories written down to improve how their content connects with their audience.

Outside of work, I enjoy meetups at local coffee shops, spending time outside with my family, and sending voice notes to friends while walking my dog, Luna.
