What if STORY is the answer? To our crises of meaning and belonging. To our impulse to heal our lives and help others. To our desire and drive to leave the world better than we found it.
We LOVE good stories. In fact, we’re kinda obsessed. Not just with the stories themselves, but with the stories behind the stories. Their oddly perfect timing, the healing process they provoke in their authors, and their capacity to catalyze individual and collective healing. And we love exploring them with writers, thought leaders, entrepreneurs, healers, parents, and others.
Tune in to hear these stories behind the stories and entertain (with us) the real possibility that, whether you are a “teller” or a “consumer,” Story is always offering, or leading us to, an answer.
Finding Your Marketing Sweet Spot with Alesha Escobar
Alesha Escobar is the bestselling author of the Gray Tower Trilogy, fantasy writer of eleven novels and counting, mother of six, graduate student, teacher, and self-proclaimed chocolate-fueled storyteller—and in this second episode with her, we focused on marketing.
If you—like many of our authors—feel like marketing is a four-letter word, Alesha’s approach will inspire you. I loved all of it and especially the piece about inviting your audience to participate in and contribute to the development and success of your story.
If you’re an introvert who would rather just write, but know you need to tell others about your book, you’re going to love this conversation.

Powerful Adventures… at Home? with Lori Giesey
Most of us think of adventures in terms of novel places and new, challenging activities.
And if you read Mima’s first book in the Cousin Camp Chronicles, titled The Ascent, you know she’s a big fan of those high-adventures.
But today, she talked about her new book Staycation and some audacious Cousin Camp adventures she facilitated at home.
You’ll love hearing how a few activities turned into life-changing, resilience-building lessons that the cousins and Mima will never forget.www.Cousin-Camp-Chronicles.com
