Behind Saga & Sage
Two storytellers. One shared belief in the power of story.
Saga & Sage was created by Brandon Millett and Laura Law, married creative partners and longtime collaborators who have spent years telling stories in different forms. Together, they founded and ran a film festival and have produced films and other creative work built around the power of story.
Brandon holds a master’s degree in psychology with a concentration in mythology and is a professional certified coach. Laura is a West Point graduate and leads a multi-million-dollar publishing company.
Their backgrounds span psychology, mythology, film, publishing, leadership, and storytelling—but Saga & Sage grew from something simpler: a shared belief that old stories still have something useful to say about the lives we are living now.
About Saga & Sage
Feeling stuck, uncertain, overwhelmed and ready for change? There’s a story for that.
Saga & Sage explores enduring stories from mythology, folklore, philosophy, religion, and literature and asks what they can still teach us about the lives we are living now.
Each piece begins with a modern problem, turns to an ancient story, and returns with a way of seeing—and practicing—something differently.
How Saga & Sage works
We start with the problem—then the story.
The ancient world is full of extraordinary stories. But Saga & Sage is not here simply to retell them. We begin with the questions people are wrestling with now: What do I do when I can’t control the outcome? How do I choose when every option has a cost? How do I let go? How do I begin again?
Then we look backward—to stories that have survived because they understood something enduring about being human—and bring what they offer back into the present.
