Even when drawing from personal lived experiences, compelling speakers must shape their stories to allow audiences to relate. Your stories shouldn't just be about your own truth — they must resonate with your audiences’ truths as well.
In this episode of Speaker Driven Business, Jacqueline Nagle stresses that with great power comes great responsibility. You have the power to share your stories in a way that effectively and impactfully gets your message across, but you also have to ensure your stories remain truthful. Additionally, if you are sharing traumatic stories, you must always remember to guide your audience back and out of the darkness.
Just as importantly, we should only speak into something when we can share from a place of strength, power, and grace. As Jacqueline highlights, this allows audiences to feel safe with you even when your stories are heavy.
Tune in as Jacqueline shares pivotal rules for crafting stories that resonate so you can punch through the barriers to move and inspire your audiences.
