There’s something potent about the power of story. Even as small children we appreciate the power and magic of being transported to another world, through even the simplest of storytelling, and yet when the story we most need to tell is our own, it can be really hard to find the words.
Susan’s mission began with doing just that. In this episode she tells how, having faced up to the painful reality that nothing was working, she completely transformed her business (and her life!) simply by finding the words and the courage to tell her own story.
In this inspirational conversation, story strategist Susan
Payton describes how, having leaned into her vulnerability, she
started to create powerful connections as people related to the
stories she shared.
Now she helps other business owners to harness the power of their
stories too.
This episode is for anyone who wants to increase their impact and
communicate their message with confidence and clarity.
MORE ABOUT MY GUEST: SUSAN PAYTON
Susan Payton is a story strategist, copywriter, messaging geek, coach, consultant and author of The Business of Stories. Released in March 2022, the book quickly became a UK and US #1 bestseller on Amazon in several business categories, including Marketing and Sales – knocking Stephen Bartlett, star of Diary of a CEO and Dragon’s Den, off the top spot!
In a noisy world, where it’s getting harder and harder to stand out from the crowd and be heard above the noise, Susan is passionate about showing business owners how to clearly articulate their value and speak to the right people, at the right time, with a simple message and a great story.
