There are many reasons I feel compelled to tell stories. Without stories, the past starts to mush together. And that makes me very anxious. Creating stories is a way for me to make sense of life. The Moth will help you tell great stories.
It's because of The Moth that I learned the dynamic range of storytelling.
The Moth changed my brain in the best possible way. Working with their amazing directors, I learned how to share my story in an authentic and powerful way that I now use almost every day as a teacher, author, and speaker. Now, that's some brain-changing magic!
The Moth connects us because we all have stories.
What you need to do, most of all, is feel like yourself. Once you do that, the words will come.
