What if you're boring? Wait! No, that came out wrong. What if YOU THINK you're boring? And you HAVE NO STORIES to tell? OR - what if you think your story is too "weird" or "unrelatable" What if it's too out there? And even if you had any stories, what if you're not good at telling them anyway? Yeah - welcome to the mind of most experts & service providers I meet. They all get the advice, "Just tell more stories". That's how you connect with your audience. That's how you grow your business. That's how you get on stages. BUT HOWWWWW? Especially if we aren't living a sexy, glamorous, Instagram-made-me-do-it, kinda life? We've got today's guest, April Pertuis, to the freakin' rescue. Because one thing April knows is storytelling. And how to pull great stories out of you - even if you THINK you're boring, are a terrible storyteller, or have nothing worth sharing or an audience who'll care. April takes us on a ride through her own transition from telling others' stories as a TV journalist to becoming an expert at telling her own… To now teaching people how to harness their own stories and how to share them with the world. You'll learn from April: 1. how to dig for, discover, and own own your story, regardless of whether you think it's "boring" or too "extraordinary." 2. What to do about the fears and self-doubt we all feel around telling stories. 3. Knowing "which camp" you're in when it comes to storytelling. 4. Actionable, realistic, do-able advice on how to leverage storytelling for your own benefit, not to mention for your business. Grab April's Story Formula Guide and learn how your Story is the Secret Weapon in Your Business Discover the Power in your Story to rock the stage, write the book, grow your audience, and crush your sales. www.lightbeamers.com/formula Please leave a review sharing what your takeaways are.
