The Everyday Storyteller

How our words can shape the paths of others.

Listen Later

We all know that communication is a powerful tool that can either build or break relationships. Our words possess this amazing ability to inspire, motivate, and uplift others. But, here's the catch: they can also have unintended consequences that leave a lasting impact. When we make seemingly harmless statements based on our own experiences or abilities, we might inadvertently shape the thoughts and beliefs of those listening. It's like having a superpower that we need to wield with caution. 


I share my strategies to ensure that your conversations have a positive effect:

  • Empathy and perspective: Put yourself in the other person's shoes. 
  • Encouragement and support: Focus your stories on lifting people up. 
  • Promote a growth mindset: Emphasise the value of your own learning and growth.
  • Lead by example: Remember, actions speak louder than words.


    • For women with something to say, The Everyday Storyteller is a podcast about making your voice matter, one day at a time.


    5 Star ratings and reviews help other women discover the show and learn how to ensure their voice matters too. So please, don't forget to leave one.
