Storytelling Q&A EP: 131
On World Storytelling Day, I went live on Facebook to talk about – what else? Storytelling, of course! I’ve mentioned time and again how sharing our stories has been an essential part of communicating with one another and, more importantly, connecting with each other. It has always been an important part of community and humanity, and even more so today.
But if you’re new to storytelling, you might have hesitations and questions you want answered before you begin your journey. And because I got great Qs when I went live, I’m sharing them with you today, hoping you get the encouragement you need to take that first step towards becoming a storyteller.
Here are some of the questions I answer and the things I talk about:
- What’s the first thing you need to remember about storytelling?
- What key questions do I need to ask my audience so I can help them and also improve my storytelling skills?
- What do I do if the story I share is received negatively?
- How do I share my story when I’m still in the process of healing?
I’m taking a page out of the Nike playbook and challenging you and telling you today to just do it. Just go ahead and share your story. It doesn’t need to be perfect. It doesn’t even need to be a big one. It just has to be shared for it to inspire others, build connections, and shine a light.
