By the time we reach midlife we've been around the block a few times, learned some things, had experiences and surmounted obstacles. We have life stories that are not only important to us but have the ability to impact others. Stories have a magical way of helping us see ourselves—and the possibilities for our own lives—through the experiences of others.
In this episode, I’m thrilled to dive into the art and power of storytelling with Marsha Shandur, a Storytelling and Persuasive Communication Coach.
We unpack how stories connect us on a deeply human level, the fascinating neurological impact storytelling has on our brains, and why vulnerability is the secret sauce to truly powerful narratives.
Marsha shares practical insights on how storytelling fosters empathy and connection—whether in personal relationships or professional settings. And we also cover common storytelling missteps and how to avoid them.
This conversation is a goldmine of tips and inspiration:
How to turn “victim” stories into empowering “hero” stories.
The role of emotion and action in crafting memorable stories.
Why personal narratives are universal—and how they build confidence for both the teller and the listener.
If you’ve ever doubted the value of your story, this episode will inspire you to embrace it as a tool for connection, empowerment, and transformation.
