About this Event
The Rewind is a space to tell true, personal stories.
To start the year off right, our first workshop of 2026 will be about better beginnings:
- What pitfalls should you avoid that makes audiences check out of your story?
- How can you draw in your audience at the start of the story so you have their full attention?
- What promises are you making to your audience with your hook?
In this workshop, you will use your own life experience as a vehicle for elevating the beginnings of your story.
As always, there will be pizza.
Please RSVP if you plan to come so we can get an accurate pizza count. Email with any questions.
