Your story can free someone! Learn why stories are the best way to connect with people and how sharing your experiences can help someone feeling isolated. You'll hear practical tips for sharing your story more powerfully.

Storytelling expert Ann Marie Houghtailing will explain the neuroscience of how stories bond us and give you tips for becoming a more powerful storyteller. 

Advice Column exists because 27 yrs ago in a conference room in downtown Chicago a stranger shared a piece of his story with me (Lisa), and I recognized a piece of my story in it. In that instant I went from feeling isolated to feeling freedom and connection. That is when I knew my mission in life. I want you to have that same experience which is the whole reason I started Advice Column. 

The idea behind this community is that we share our stories and experiences with each other to remember we aren’t alone and to share ideas for navigating the adventure of life. 

Enjoy this episode that dives into how you can more effectively share your stories to enrich the lives of the people around you while building your relationship with them.
