Your Story Committee
Have you ever wondered if you’re telling the right story? Have you asked yourself if telling a certain story could be a mistake?
Great storytellers are self-aware storytellers, but this self-awareness can sometimes transform into self-consciousness. When insecurity about a story takes over, it can stop us from telling that story altogether. And while being conscientious is usually a helpful habit, it can also keep some of our most powerful stories from ever being told.
What is the key to keeping fear from burying the best stories? A story committee.
Made up of trusted individuals with diverse perspectives, a story committee understands your intentions and isn’t afraid to tell you when something is missing from a story. This behind-the-scenes step in the storytelling process helps fine-tune your stories before you tell them publicly, and provides a much-needed boost of storytelling confidence.
