This episode begins by sharing the motivation and inspiration for beginning the podcast then we hear from our first guest Ronni Gurwicz.
Ronni is a published narrative coach and ecosystem analyst. He is also in the process of drinking 1000 cups of coffee with a thousand strangers. Specific to Episode 1, Ronni is Co-author of a book called ‘The World is Storytelling’ which helped me find meaning with my podcast idea.
With this episode I hope to leave the listener left with a little better understanding of how storytelling can help with personal growth and social impact.
In sum, storytelling can aid and these ideas in three ways, by figuring out:
By I am I mean the storyteller getting their own story in order as they realize what they have to say. By who you are I mean the listener hearing the story and learning about the storyteller. Finally, who we are together, this is where the social impact part of storytelling can be really effective.
As I said in the beginning we don't necessarily have to agree but being open to hearing another’s story is a fantastic place to start.
