Do you ever wish you were a better story teller or that you could make more sense of the things that happen to you? Do you struggle to find the right words to share your experiences, or worry that your stories are boring? If so, today's episode is for you.
My guest is Corey Rosen, a storytelling expert and host of The Moth StorySlams. He explains that we can all become better storytellers and that doing so can have a profound impact on our mental health, relationships, and personal growth.
Some of the things we discuss are:
- The difference between an anecdote and a story
- Why becoming a better story listener makes you a better storyteller
- How to use the stories you tell yourself to navigate stressful situations
- The power of reframing your story to focus on your resourcefulness
- Why the best stories are built on breaks in routine
- How to tell a story about failure before you know the victorious outcome
- Why it's important to share stories of struggle, not just success
- How TV shows from our childhood shaped our life goals
- Practical, 60-second exercises to help you become a better storyteller
