Today we will share stories inspired by “Your Odyssey: A career journey story”
One of the most important stories that you can craft is the story of your career. You’ll need this story for interviews, networking events, keynotes, and other crucial moments. Today we’ll hear “career journey” stories. Can our storytellers keep the audience engaged? Will they be able to build a through-line that keeps the story pieces connected?

STORY HOUR
Today we will share stories inspired by “Storytelling Tool: Pause”
In storytelling, silence is often just as important as the words we say. Pause is one of the most dramatic tools of story delivery, and worth experimenting with. Today we’ll explore ways to leverage pause in our storytelling. We’ll discuss how it invites curiosity, how it amplifies emotional impact, and gives weight and meaning to specific moments. Bring a story that lets you stretch into your own use of pause, or one that illustrates what can go wrong when pause is misused.

STORY HOUR
Today we will share stories inspired by “Sustenance: Stories about the things that keep us going”
As we hear more and more about overwhelm, burnout, and the need for people to simply check out just to survive, we recognize the power of the little things that help us keep going. Today we’ll share stories about the thoughts, moments, rituals, or tokens that help us along every day.

STORY HOUR
Today we will share stories inspired by “Reconciliation: Finding the way back.”
It’s common for us to exchange stories about the times we felt betrayed, forgotten, jilted, or ignored. These moments hurt, and find connection by sharing these hurts with other. What’s less common are the stories about how we find our way to reconciliation and peace. Today we’ll share the moments where we find it in ourselves to forgive or be forgiven.

STORY HOUR
Today we’ll hear stories of when you discovered what you want to be when you grow up. These formative stories are powerful in sharing who we are with others. Feel free to choose a story from your childhood or early in career. Think about what moments or experiences helped you figure out what you could be as a “grown-up.”
