Why Storytelling?
Storytelling is part of our human existence. We are wired to communicate through stories. Whether you’re looking to perform on stage, a business leader speaking to your team, a brand marketer speaking to customers, an individual sharing with colleagues, family, or friends—the ability to tell a great story helps you communicate with lasting impact.
Storytelling lights up the brain, creates connections, and moves us to feel/act!
This Meetup will be fun and highly interactive, including hands-on activities, class materials, and references.
You will learn to craft true, first-person, contemporary stories to share in written form or to perform live for an audience. You will mine your life for juicy stories, discover the details that matter, and structure and shape
your stories for stage or page,
