Storytelling has existed since humankind's dawn; it has always been a handy tool to share experiences, prevent others from dangers, teach, and create a sense of belonging. We are so connected to stories that hearing one generates chemical reactions in our brains.

This week, I'm joined by Mark Carpenter, Serial Storyteller, Founder, Trainer, Consultant, and Speaker. He co-authored "Master Storytelling", a book about how to turn everyday experiences into stories that teach, lead, and inspire.
