Show Notes

Nowadays, anyone with a freaking Snapchat account thinks they are a storyteller. The term gets tossed around casually, paying no respect to the true craftspeople in the business of storytelling. Likewise the mass proliferation of the term storytelling prohibits people from understanding the depth of what it means to tell stories.

We don’t just connect with people because they talk.

Stories aren’t always about two people because sometimes to the most powerful stories in the world, are the ones we tell ourselves. There are stories we tell ourselves about the world we’re in, or who we are in that world we inhabit. The greatest storytellers know much that today’s garden variety chatterheads and Snapchat ranters do not.

In this episode, Shannon Presson gives us a master class in the what it means to be a storyteller. Listen in, I’m sure you’ll get a lot out of it.
