3.1 You Got a Story w/ Guest Todd Hansen

Welcome to Season 3 of How to Rewrite Your Stars!! I am very excited to be here with you, the faithful listener, as well as the many amazing guests that I have come on the show!


Today we get to listen to me talking with Todd Hansen, who was one of the inspirations for me to focus on the stories of the guests I have on the show. Anybody can do anything, but where did they start out and why did they choose what they're doing? Todd would focus on the stories of complete strangers on his show The Story Trek I saw various episodes of growing up.
Today the tables got flipped on Todd, and I became the one asking him questions! It was quite the experience, maybe a bit surreal even, but how Todd started out was nowhere near being a TV anchor, and wow does he have an amazing story to share! I am extremely grateful that Todd agreed to be on the show, asking him was probably the most intimidating guest I've had so far because I only knew him from TV.
We also talk about the new show that Todd is working on that premiered about a month ago, You Got a Story, which is his effort to revitalize the wonderful experience that The Story Trek was for everyone involved and this time you can be involved!
Be sure to listen to today's episode and check out Todd's website for You Got a Story so that you can watch and become involved as well!
Finally, remember, you have a story and it matters. Be willing to share it and grow it!
