Summary
First we make our stories, then our stories make us.
We are story tellers. You are a master story teller. Whether you're conscious of it or not, you make about stories about everything that happens around you, about every choice you make, every single day.
When I say "stories" that DOESN'T mean you made something up.
Your story is the meaning you attach to your experiences.
Your story can take you to new heights or it can overwhelm you and lead to you to isolate yourself and feel defeated.
In today's episode, we're taking a look at the stories you tell yourself and how you can stand on the shoulders of your story and allow it to take you to new heights!
Today's episode features pieces of a powerful conversation I had with story-expert Marlo Ellis - founder and visionary behind The Uncommon Woman.
