In this episode, we’re talking about the Spellbinding Storyteller speaker archetype with my guest and Thought Leader Academy client Shannon Bumgarner.

As a Spellbinding Storyteller:

Your audience is captivated by your stories and they feel a real connection to you.
You understand the power of sharing personal stories and being vulnerable - it's how you've learned to better understand yourself.
You see what's happened to you as a way to share life lessons and help your audience realize they're not alone.
Your big challenge? You love sharing stories so much that you may miss out on the opportunity to provide your audience with your overall thought leadership message and a strong call to action.

Shannon and I talk about how she’s leveraged her strengths as a Spellbinding Storyteller plus what she’s learned about the power of using her voice and thought leadership.
