Natalia Biyan is trained in the classical oral Life Review tradition introduced by gerontologist Robert N. Butler in the 1960s. The method was instrumental in helping Natalia find her voice in her forties and she is passionate about bringing it to midlife with a special focus on voice empowerment. Her narrative practice helps people move from self-suppression to self-expression through one-on-one Life Reviews, signature workshops, and keynote presentations. As an affiliate of Concordia University’s COHDS, Natalia is looking to contribute to academic conversations around chronological life narrative.
