We live in a world obsessed with data, productivity, and optimization, and yet, we still tell stories.

In this solo episode of Beyond The Page, Lora Tia explores why storytelling isn't just entertainment, but a core human survival tool. From childhood imagination to branding, leadership, work culture, and personal identity, narrative shapes how we understand the world and our place in it.

If you've ever wondered why stories linger, why representation matters, or why certain narratives feel hollow while others feel like home, this episode is for you.
