Storytelling is a powerful tool. When done with intention and purpose, telling your story can help you heal from past traumas, hurts, and experiences you'd rather forget. It allows you to release the feelings and energy associated with an experience. And it lets you move out of that space of isolation, which we retreat to when we keep our stories to ourselves. But how do you begin this process and journey of healing? Where do you start? How do you even identify what stories you need to tell for you to heal?

Have you ever wanted to become a speaker? A writer? Where are you on your journey to becoming the speaker or writer you’ve always wanted to be? Have you even taken the first step to fulfilling your dream?
info_outlineStorytelling has always been an important part of our whole human experience. It’s how we connect with people, build relationships, and make sense of what is happening to us and around us.
But it’s not always easy to tell our story. And we don’t always know how to tell our story in a way that will get our audience to listen and understand what we want to share.
So how do we do it? What kind of storytelling should we be doing for us to engage our audience?
Tune in to today’s episode as I share with you:
- What strategic storytelling is
- 2 tips for telling a strategic story
- a simple 3-part exercise that will help you craft your strategic story
Learning how to structure your story and share it in a way that can capture your audience are key pieces in strategic storytelling. I invite you to start practicing this today because it's going to take a lot of work and dedication. But I tell you, the reward will be great -- for in sharing your story, you become a light for those who hear your words.
