where boundaries dissolve

#19 Your Story is Your Power

Episode Summary

Olivia spent most of her life thinking she wasn't good enough: Her parents told her she couldn't become a dancer. She became a dancer. Olivia had a speech impediment and became the European toastmasters champion. When you stop trying to fit in that’s when life happens, she says. Olivia shares how to embrace your story and tell it–deliver yourself and own your uniqueness to inspire people, drive change, and have an impact in business and society.

Episode Notes

My take-aways on  how to own our uniqueness and deliver your story to drive change:

  1. Leaders speak to inspire people not inform them, you do so with story
  2. Embracing storytelling to inspire requires that you tap into your personal story--what makes you unique?
  3. Understanding our uniqueness often requires us to do some work on accepting what we often are ashamed of, because that sets us apart from others, but that's what we need to learn to embrace

Olivia shares loads of practical speaking advice when you find the courage to share your story. Tune in to discover how to cultivate your energy and inspire others.
