What Can You Learn From A National Geographic Explorer with Dr. Elizabeth Lindsey

How much of what people say about storytelling in native societies matches reality? What can we still learn from them? And why should everyone become a storyteller? 

97. What Can You Learn From A National Geographic Explorer with Dr. Elizabeth Lindsey

Welcome to The Storypowers Podcast, the show about the power of stories, the people who tell them and why you should be doing it too. I’m your host, keynote speaker and storytelling coach, Francisco Mahfuz.

My guest today is Dr. Elizabeth Kapu'uwailani Lindsey.

Lindsey is the first Polynesian Explorer and female Fellow in the history of the National Geographic Society.  A native Hawaiian elder, cultural anthropologist, and award-winning filmmaker, she travels to the world's most remote regions as a conservationist of indigenous wisdom and an advocate for social, environmental, and cultural justice.

She is the recipient of the United Nations Visionary Award and she has served as an advisor to global organizations, including the Tibet Fund for His Holiness, the Dalai Lama.
