Tell Your Story with Strategy with Brielle Cotterman

Tangible Takeaways:

• Be courageous and share your story. You have a story worth sharing even when you believe your life isn't interesting enough.
• The first step of sharing your story is identifying your breakthrough story. What was the turning point?
• Know your why, and own it. Show how your why has shaped your story and who you are today.
• Understand the cycle of abuse, and be aware that it's not simple to "just get out of it" - women leaving an abusive relationship have a 70% chance of losing their life. Leaving requires strategy.
• You can't sit back and wait for something newsworthy to happen. You have to make the news! Look at your life from that lens will help build your story.
• When building something new, embrace falling down as part of the journey. It's not about not falling. Progress is all about getting back up.
