We are all storytellers.

“Owning our story and loving ourselves through that process is the bravest thing we’ll ever do.”
Dr. Brené Brown delivered a presentation on “The power of vulnerability” at TEDx Houston. As a professor at the University of Houston, Brown studies vulnerability, courage, authenticity, and shame. It’s a pretty big subject area to squeeze into 18 minutes, yet Brown did it so well that her presentation has been viewed 15 million times and has turned Brown into a New York Times bestselling author.

How?
“I thought, you know, I am a storyteller. I’m a qualitative researcher. I collect stories; that’s what I do. Maybe stories are just data with a soul. And maybe I’m just a storyteller.”

In a business presentation, you’re telling the story behind your campaign, company, or product.
In a job interview, you’re telling the story behind your personal brand.
In a marketing pitch, you’re telling the story about your idea.

Remember:
Data won’t get you standing ovations;
A brand alone cannot connect with people;

Audiences will not feel anything for just words;
Stories will.
Stories inform, illuminate, and inspire.
Tell more of them.
