Welcome fellow detectives and welcome to something a little new. In offering live interactive training sessions, the one thing I never do is record them. Well, this leaves those who unexpectedly can’t attend without the benefit of these sessions. So, after having several people reach out for recordings of our May session on Imposture Syndrome, I decided to create this podcast and do my best to capture a snippet of the information shared during this session.

So Fellow Detectives if I may ask. Is Impostor Syndrome holding you back? Do you even know what this is and if you do, and if you find it is affecting your greatness, do you know what you can do about it?

I know too many questions, right? Let’s get started on this episode, because as always, the clues await!

No, we are not health professionals, be we do have some tips to help. So, listen in because as always, the clues await!

Storytelling as Medicine with Diane Wyzga – Quarter Moon Story Arts

Hey Fellow Detectives, have you ever heard of storytelling as medicine?

Struggling, self-doubt, instability, or just plain frustrated, believe it or not, your story holds some very meaningful clues to help you with your next great step.

A lawyer, nurse, litigation consultant now a podcaster and private practitioner, Diane took me on a metaphorical journey as we recorded this podcast. She gave me far deeper insights into her signature lighthouses and their importance.

Join us as Diane speaks about how your WHO proceeds your WHY, the importance of marrying the content and context, and how she teaches people how to teach themselves the power of storytelling.

While I always recognized the importance of a story, it was not until I had this chat with Diane that I realized our stories are far more powerful than we tend to give them credit for.

I truly believe that the importance of storytelling has never been more important.

So, if you’re ready, let’s get started because as always, the clues await.
