What if the secret to better enrollment and patient engagement wasn’t in your credentials – but in the stories you tell? In this episode of the Health and Wellness Marketing Show, Uli Iserloh sits down with storytelling strategist and author Kyle Gray to explore how practitioners can use storytelling to overcome objections, build trust, and ethically increase conversions. Kyle unpacks why even the most brilliant experts struggle to communicate effectively – and how stories serve as the emotional bridge between you and your audience. If you’re ready to stop fire-hosing people with facts and start leading them to a confident “yes,” this episode is a masterclass in marketing with heart.
Listen To Learn:- Discover why most health experts overwhelm prospects with information – and how storytelling breaks through resistance.
