Our Systems, Our Stories - Reflective Card Deck





Our Systems, Our Stories - Reflective Card Deck
A reflective card deck to expose the stories systems tell — and the ones we can reclaim.
Our Systems, Our Stories is a transformative 30-card reflective deck designed for adults and organisations ready to disrupt the status quo and reimagine what’s possible. With each card, you’ll explore a dominant system pattern — like urgency, control, or hierarchy — alongside an Indigenous-informed counter-story rooted in truth-telling, relationship, reciprocity, and care. This is not a tool for blame. It’s a companion for becoming.
Whether used in personal reflection, leadership development, education, or team-based cultural transformation, this deck supports deeper awareness, courageous conversation, and collective growth. It's ideal for anyone committed to reshaping how we live, lead, and learn — in ways that honour culture and reclaim identity.
What’s Inside:
30 System Story Cards - Each one names a colonial pattern that may show up in our beliefs, behaviours, or structures — paired with a relational, Indigenous-informed alternative.
Reflection & Yarning Prompts - Designed to support honest conversations and open inquiry — without shame or judgement.
Strengths-Based and Transformational - Centres relational intelligence, cultural integrity, and shared responsibility — this is about shifting with people, not over them.
