Telling One Hundred Weeks of Stories
In 2020, I launch Storytelling School with programs, courses, workshops, masterminds, and one-on-one training.\xa0
One of my colleagues notices that there\u2019s something missing. She says to me, \u201cKymberlee, you also need a podcast.\u201d
I\u2019m thinking, \u201cDo I, though? I\u2019m so busy already, and there are a TON of well-established podcasts out there. Does the world need another one? Plus, would anyone even bother listening to mine?\u201d
My colleague insists, \u201cNone of those podcasts have your unique perspective on storytelling or can highlight the incredible people you know, all in one place. None of them can give back and serve your audience\u2026 the way only you can.\u201d
Okay, we\u2019re doing this.\xa0
And one hundred weeks later, what an adventure this has been.
Sometimes what we resist is exactly what we need to move forward. And if I had succumbed to that resistance, we wouldn\u2019t have heard the amazing voices and informative points of view from guests around the world who have all shared their perspective on storytelling.
Now you\u2019re in for a treat! In this special 100th episode of the Storytelling School podcast, you\u2019ll hear the best \u201cmic drop moments\u201d from every previous guest\u2026 plus a couple of powerful ideas from yours truly as well. So grab your pen and paper and get ready for micro soundbites that just may inspire you to take action, challenge you to change your perspective, and even invite you to change your life!
Enjoy.

A little about me:
Hi there. I\u2019m Kymberlee.
As a Speaking Strategist and founder of Storytelling School, I\u2019ve had the pleasure of working with over 500 speakers, business leaders, and entrepreneurs worldwide for over a decade. No matter if those folks were getting ready to take the TED or TEDx stage or preparing for a high-stakes presentation with everything on the line, my specialty is High Stakes Short Form Communication. I\u2019ve seen what works when influencing change and what doesn\u2019t. It turns out storytelling is one of the most powerful tools you can have in your arsenal. That\u2019s why I\u2019m building a movement of master storytellers to affect change in the world on a global scale to help people tell real stories that have influence and impact. With effective storytelling, you change people\u2019s lives.
Since competition for potential client attention is fierce, a story can make the difference between being memorable or irrelevant. You\u2019ll find me sharing my matcha tea mishap to discuss perfectionism, my quest for Bruce Lee and Hello Kitty art to explore kindness, or the six months of live blade training I underwent to illustrate presence. I spend my days showing the power of using stories to help cement ideas and bring lessons to life and teaching my clients to do the same.
If you think business owners can\u2019t tell stories or don\u2019t have stories to share with their clients, staff, donors, followers, or investors, I invite you to reconsider your perspective. There\u2019s no better place than in business to tell your stories so audiences, no matter how big or small, can understand how you think and what you value.
Now it\u2019s your turn... If you\u2019re ready to become a master storyteller and effect change in our world, you\u2019ve come to the right place.
