Listen "A Ruby's Story"
Episode Synopsis
In this episode of Echoes of Us, I sit down with Dan Pontefract — leadership strategist, author, and champion of workplace culture — to explore how legacy storytelling isn’t about building monuments to ourselves, but about offering scaffolding for others. We talk about how personal stories teach us to love more deeply, not just romantically, but in how we appreciate life, people, and moments.Dan draws on Indigenous storytelling traditions, reminding us that while AI offers incredible possibilities, it can’t replace the human connection that stories forge. It’s through these exchanges that wisdom is passed down and meaning is made.We also dive into the workplace, where legacy storytelling helps leaders connect across generations, fostering empathy, perspective, and better decision-making. As Dan prepares for the release of his upcoming book on generational learning, this conversation couldn’t be better timed.A conversation about story, connection, and the invisible threads that bind us — at home, at work, and in the world.
