Everyone has a story worth telling.

And no matter who you are or how you exist you deserve for people to hear your #story.

Because something incredible happens when people hear your story.

✨They feel connected.
✨They understand they’re not alone.
✨They feel seen.

And when people understand how stories connect us all on a #human level they’re more likely to:

☑️ Invest in your brand
☑️ Buy your product/service
☑️ Support your dream

Authenticity is the biggest trend in #storytelling and sharing your story is the first step.

Life is really unpredictable. After taking a sabbatical in December I returned back to Houston this week ready to get to work, but of course the universe has its own plans.

My wife and mother-in-law were side-swiped by an 18-wheeler while waiting in the turning lane this weekend.

They’re OK, but it’s taking me a few days to release the anxiety and deal with the aftermath. It could have been so much worse and right now I’m just grateful they’re not hurt.

I’m sharing this as a gentle reminder to be present with those you love and remember what matters most because life can change in an instant.
