The stories you tell can set you apart — but only if people feel them. In this episode of Uncover Your Story, I share a personal story and break it down step by step to show how you can move from telling to showing. You’ll learn how to use structure, detail, and emotion to create stories that connect, stick, and inspire action. Plus, I guide you through a simple journaling exercise to help you uncover and shape your own story.Journaling prompts from this episode:What do I want my audience to think after hearing my story?How do I want them to feel?What do I want them to do?What moments from my life (or my clients’ lives) bring that message to life?What sensory details and emotions can I add to bring the story alive?Where is the emotional heart of the story?Ready to uncover and polish your own brand stories?
