If you have a story to tell / research to share / something to promote and are looking to find ways to make a clear, impactful connection with your audience, we can work together to ensure you feel ready to rise to the occasion with Story Sessions.
STORY SESSIONS //
Story Sessions provide 1-1 communications coaching to help folks explore, identify, and deliver their stories.
Through guided questions and a consensus-driven, collaborative approach, you’ll leave Story Sessions ready to communicate your story with clarity and impact. You’ll feel ready to make genuine connections with your audiences, leave a lasting, positive impression, and inspire action.
Story Sessions take place over the course of three appointments:
1.) Story Mining
2.) Practice and Feedback
3.) Post Mortem
Step 1: Story Mining
Story Sessions start with a 2-hour “Story Mining” appointment and are structured to meet four key objectives. Together, we will:
Identify your audience. Who are you speaking to? What do you need them to know or to do?
Identify your story — and why it is relevant to your audience now.
Develop your key talking points. These are the core ideas that you need your audience to remember long after your time on the mic is over. This is more than a checklist of ideas – you’ll also need examples, evidence, and stories to support each point. We’ll work together to discover which supports are most resonant and effective.
Craft your delivery. This isn’t about scripting, memorization, or stagecraft. This is about owning your talking points, feeling at home in your story, and embracing authenticity to spark true connection with your audience.
Step 2: Practice and Feedback
Story Sessions continue with a second, 1-hour session scheduled after you’ve had time to practice on your own for a few days. This is your “dress rehearsal” for your big moment. It’s also a time to get feedback on areas of your delivery that are working really well and suggestions for areas that may benefit from some fine tuning.
Story Sessions for media training purposes involve mock interviews (with a debrief to discuss).
Step 3: Post Mortem
Each Story Session includes an hour-long post-mortem follow-up appointment. After your big moment – be it a media interview, a presentation, or a pitch – you can schedule time to talk through how the communication went. What do you think worked well? What would you like to do differently?
From there, we’ll work together to refine your story, making and practicing gentle corrections to bring your delivery in alignment with your communications goals.
