Overview
Movies are big business - not only because of the escape that they provide, but also because they tell stories that we see ourselves in.
When was the last time you thought about the story you’re telling with your choices, your relationships, your job/career, or the direction you’re moving?
By reconsidering the story you’re telling, you can identify exactly how you want the next plot twist or personal challenge or even a new character to show up. This will reignite the spark of passion in your life.
We’ll talk about why we need stories and how inviting more stories into our hearts and minds will help us get better at telling our own life story - to ourselves!
