On my blog you can find stories, talks and workshops relating to content marketing, business development, and the art of storytelling. I also like to write an occasional thought piece, so you can enjoy that as well.
Hello storytellers, I am back!
I am sorry I have been away for so long, and thanks to so many of you who kept coming back to my blog. You inspired me to find the time to write again. I have some exciting stories lined up for you.
I thought a lot about how to persuade, and sway people, and I want to share a few examples that I find help me achieve a bigger objective.
… had me a blast. Do you know what song I am thinking of? This is my all time favourite song and movie, and when I was little I used to make everyone sing it with me. I was Sandy, and Danny took on the shape of my stepfather, brother, friend, anyone really who would humour me! So today in honour of all those happy memories, I wanted to share with you my summer lovin’. This summer has...
Some people are born natural storytellers and most of those people have one key thing in common; they embellish stories. How do I know this?

New year, fresh start! If you haven’t quite written down all of your New Year resolutions, let me add one more to your list.

It’s all the typical stuff that makes it so special; family, friends, the Christmas tree, the food, the fact it’s definitely OK to open a bottle of Champagne at 10am. Everyone comes home, we eat, we drink, we open presents, and watch Christmas movies. It’s a very typical Christmas day. That aside Christmas gives everyone...
ccasionally, I wake up feeling like an impostor. I question all of my previous experience, and convince myself that everything so far has been luck, which of course is about to run out. I have heard the sentence “I feel like an impostor“, from every ambitious, motivated, hard-working person I know. So, why do we keep questioning our abilities? I have a theory I want to share with you...
One of the many things I learned at The Power of Storytelling conference in Romania, Bucharest, is that storytelling is the most democratic form of creativity. Murray Nossel, says that people can argue about politics, social and cultural beliefs, and opinions, but they can’t argue about experiences. Your story is what happened to you.
