Hi everyone, I’m Dr. Jen Henderson, and I’m so excited to share this episode with you. Today, I’m joined by Em, a Story Collector here at Escendant, The Human Archive. Together, we’re diving into the essence of storytelling, what it is, why it matters, and the incredible impact our stories can have on ourselves and others.

Episode Summary ✨
In this episode, Em and I explore the beauty and importance of everyday stories. We discuss how stories shape our connections, why they’re worth preserving, and how they can inspire others. Em shares heartfelt personal experiences, including the lessons she’s learned through her role as a Story Collector and her own life journey. We also reflect on how technology has changed the way we share and remember stories, and why it’s vital to take notice of the little moments in life.
