Key Lessons from this conversation:
stories persuade because they create an emotional experience, not because they present information
audiences identify with the hero of a story and experience the journey emotionally
effective stories require a clear hero, a visible goal, and meaningful conflict
emotion is generated through obstacles, not through desire alone
powerful stories show transformation, not just events
everyday people and ordinary experiences make the most relatable stories
business stories work best when the audience subconsciously becomes the hero
narration alone is not storytelling
structure matters more than style when telling stories
the aftermath of a story shows why the journey mattered
