Redefining Success Through Storytelling with Denise Konkol

This week on Leap for Success, host Mary Gaul sits down with storyteller and writer, Denise Konkol.

Denise shares her inspiring story of resilience after being unexpectedly let go from her job in March 2024. Determined to reshape her future, Denise took the leap into grant writing and rediscovered her passion for storytelling. It’s been a challenging year, but as she explains, it’s also opened doors to opportunities and connections she couldn’t have imagined.

Denise comes from a rich background in journalism and has built a dynamic career around her love of writing. From proofreading and editing to grant writing and public relations content, she’s done it all. Denise’s ultimate passion is helping businesses tell their unique stories with authenticity. Whether it’s through blogging, web content, or long-form articles, she connects companies with their audiences in a way that’s both genuine and impactful.

On this episode, Denise discusses how her skills in storytelling can help business owners get “unstuck” and communicate with clarity. She also shares insights from her two Substack blogs, Bite Size Brave and Bite Size Budget, where she writes about courage and financial savvy.

Looking forward, Denise is ready to make 2025 a breakthrough year, leaning into everything she’s learned along the way.
