We humans love to share stories. It's inherent in our cultures and histories, whether we’re sitting around a campfire with friends or family, or immersing ourselves in someone else’s story via the mediums of television, film and theatre. Yet, you might not realise that your own personal story has been constructed via your social interactions and the meanings you assigned to them at the time. Painful stories, in particular, tend to get stored and carried in your psychological “backpack” and you retell them over and over until they become part of your core identity.

 But, what would your life look like if you realised you actually had the power to shape a new story of your life?

In this episode, Victoria and Pete will deconstruct the stories we’ve carried in our "backpacks" and share insights into how you can change your story, if you don’t like the way your current one is playing out.
