"Let me tell you how easy talking to Life is. Every time I was struggling for words or anything, they're sitting there with their hand on their heart looking transfixed. This has just been cathartic. It has been a journey. I'm gonna take this with me."
“Thank you for your passion and artistry - the video is beautiful.”
“Thanks so much Life, for your passion and commitment to this project. You did a beautiful job and we very much appreciate it!”
“I am really glad I decided to sign up for this workshop. I have received so much more from it than storytelling skills. You created this beautiful space for expression in which I felt safe and confident about exploring my history and dreams for the future. Thank you so much for your care, coaching, and sharing. I want to especially thank you for sharing your personal stories with us - you're such a powerful soul and a ball of light! It has been a pure joy getting to know you...I want to reiterate that as you shared them, I began feeling comfortable about sharing mine.”
“Now I am not afraid of telling my stories to people. It gave me the motivation to move forward. Thank you so much! I think this workshop should be at every [organizational] conference. Because it is very effective.”
“I was inspired and motivated. When you are inspired by this, you will want to go out and tell your stories.”
“My biggest takeaway from this session was to learn and feel the power of storytelling. By sharing my own story and listening to others I felt more connected. This is a great tool to use in our projects.”
“The Storytelling workshop was very meaningful for every participant. It made me feel more confident and closer to other participants. Our stories are all connected. We realized how it's important to be sincere and open-minded about our professional and personal stories. Through the stories, we can involve more people in our projects. We can motivate and inspire our community for better changes.”
“It was the best workshop or lecture I have been to. The idea of Storytelling is so straightforward and magnificent. I loved it. Now in everything I do, I see possibilities of how this moment can be written down so that other people will also experience it. The workshop taught me that it is important to start with yourself, to love yourself, and to share this love and then the world will hug you and you will be happy. Thank you organizers so much for inviting Life to the Conference, it was unforgettable.”
“I gained some skills and valuable advice on how to make my stories more interesting to hear and the importance of including detail while telling the story.”
“I learned how to tell a story effectively and the importance of getting the attention of listeners and keeping them interested.”
“For me, the biggest "Ah-ha" moment of the Storytelling session was what clicked in my mind after we told our stories to each other. I realized how close we are and connected to each other. Every person has meaningful stories inside of them.”
“My biggest Ah-ha moment was that effective storytelling is not hard and anyone can do it with proper training.”
“Stories can change the vision of the whole community. This workshop motivated me in different ways. For example, in my future projects, I'm planning to explain to people the goals of the projects, why we are doing it, and whom it will benefit through storytelling.”
“It has already played a great impact in my relations with my community, I think my communication skills improved a lot after this session.”
“Now I know how to tell a story that would attract someone's attention.”
“I am already applying it to every moment of my life. On my Instagram and Facebook pages now I try to pass a message forward and to have meaning in what I write or post. In my college life, I am more considerate of people, I do not judge them because now I realize that everyone has his or her story, told or untold.”
“I plan on applying the storytelling lessons to my everyday life, including in my relationships with family, coworkers, and people in my community as we organize and implement projects.”
“Every lesson was a big lesson. Everything Life told us was so simple and valuable. I especially loved the part about how to write the stories and the moments when we took time to think about our ah-ha moments in our lives. This was very important because in many motivational letters, statements, and applications you have to write about such moments and now I know how to do that.”
