Storytelling is at the heart of podcasting. Whether you have an interview show creating a scripted podcast or even a solo episode of your own, it's all about being authentic, truthful, and to be confident in sharing your story through your voice. Even though, traditionally, podcasting is an audio-only platform, through our storytelling, we can still feel, smell, and visualize all through how we tell a story. One of the best things about podcasting is that we can paint a picture to create the theatre of our minds. Our sensories are heightened through our voice alone.

Sophie Wadsworth joins me to discuss how we can nurture a culture of storytelling for podcasting. She brings a passion for helping leaders craft and deliver personal, mission-centred stories. She draws on her experience as a writer and executive leader to collaborate with you in creating unique presentations. We'll tackle what a story actually is, how storytelling builds on emotional connections and what the building blocks to storytelling are to crafting a unique story for podcasters.

We'll also build on:

• How to improve your communication to nurture empathy and inclusivity.
• What you can do today to improve the way you communicate solo and with guests.
• The importance of being a good listener, how to provide value, and how to maintain a natural and conversational pace.
