In 2020, I launch Storytelling School with programs, courses, workshops, masterminds, and one-on-one training.

One of my colleagues notices that there’s something missing. She says to me, “Kymberlee, you also need a podcast.”

I’m thinking, “Do I, though? I’m so busy already, and there are a TON of well-established podcasts out there. Does the world need another one? Plus, would anyone even bother listening to mine?”

My colleague insists, “None of those podcasts have your unique perspective on storytelling or can highlight the incredible people you know, all in one place. None of them can give back and serve your audience… the way only you can.”

Okay, we’re doing this.

And one hundred weeks later, what an adventure this has been.

Sometimes what we resist is exactly what we need to move forward. And if I had succumbed to that resistance, we wouldn’t have heard the amazing voices and informative points of view from guests around the world who have all shared their perspective on storytelling.

Now you’re in for a treat! In this special 100th episode of the Storytelling School podcast, you’ll hear the best “mic drop moments” from every previous guest… plus a couple of powerful ideas from yours truly as well. So grab your pen and paper and get ready for micro soundbites that just may inspire you to take action, challenge you to change your perspective, and even invite you to change your life!

Enjoy.

A little about me:

Hi there. I’m Kymberlee.

As a Speaking Strategist and founder of Storytelling School, I’ve had the pleasure of working with over 500 speakers, business leaders, and entrepreneurs worldwide for over a decade. No matter if those folks were getting ready to take the TED or TEDx stage or preparing for a high-stakes presentation with everything on the line, my specialty is High Stakes Short Form Communication. I’ve seen what works when influencing change and what doesn’t. It turns out storytelling is one of the most powerful tools you can have in your arsenal. That’s why I’m building a movement of master storytellers to affect change in the world on a global scale to help people tell real stories that have influence and impact. With effective storytelling, you change people’s lives.

Since competition for potential client attention is fierce, a story can make the difference between being memorable or irrelevant. You’ll find me sharing my matcha tea mishap to discuss perfectionism, my quest for Bruce Lee and Hello Kitty art to explore kindness, or the six months of live blade training I underwent to illustrate presence. I spend my days showing the power of using stories to help cement ideas and bring lessons to life and teaching my clients to do the same.

If you think business owners can’t tell stories or don’t have stories to share with their clients, staff, donors, followers, or investors, I invite you to reconsider your perspective. There’s no better place than in business to tell your stories so audiences, no matter how big or small, can understand how you think and what you value.

Now it’s your turn... If you’re ready to become a master storyteller and effect change in our world, you’ve come to the right place.
