Many professionals prepare for high-stakes communication by focusing on story structure and delivery techniques. But even the best-prepared stories often fail to land.

Why?

Because storytelling is not just about preparation - it's about presence.

In this episode, we explore five traits that differentiate effective storytellers from those who simply read from a script. These are not performance tricks; they are personal qualities that shape how a story is perceived in real time.

If you’ve ever done everything “right” and still felt something was missing, this may explain why.

When most people hear “storytelling,” they think ads, marketing, or maybe even fiction. But at work, storytelling plays a far more powerful role. It helps us communicate, align and lead with impact.

In this episode, we unpack 3 common myths about storytelling at the workplace:

• Why it does belong in serious meetings

• Why it’s not just for branding and marketing

• Why it doesn’t require drama or performance

If you've ever wondered whether storytelling has a role to play in your communication, this episode is for you.

We often believe that saying something is the same as effectively communicating it. But communication is only complete when it leads to being understood the way it was intended. And too often, that’s where it breaks down.

In this episode, we explore why your message may not be landing, what invisible walls show up between speaker and listener, and how storytelling helps bridge the gap between information and true understanding. With a real example, this is a reflective look at how you can rely on storytelling to communicate with more clarity, empathy, and impact.

Listening is at the heart of powerful storytelling, but it’s often not understood well enough.

In this episode, we explore what true listening looks like - and what it doesn’t. Through real-life moments, we reflect on how listening shapes connection, builds trust, and invites stories that matter. Because before you can tell a good story, you have to be the kind of person others want to tell stories to.
