The Power of Storytelling

We hear that storytelling has power, but what does that really mean? Can telling our own story really make a difference in our lives? Does it matter how we tell our story? And furthermore, when we tell stories as a society, what are we really saying about people – especially people who have been impacted by trauma? This month we talk with Elissa Yancey about all these things and more. Elissa is the founder of A Picture’s Worth, a nonprofit information gathering tool for journalists, educators & non-profits.
