You got your stories of your life experiences, and you want to proudly share it to the world. The only question is “which one”?

April Adam Pertuis is a great example of people who create a huge impact with her stories. Her passion is helping women discover their stories, their why, so they can own it, speak it and share it to others. A veteran journalist, April values powerful stories and what makes you YOU. She’s learned that we have similar dreams, fears, goals, and doubts. So ladies, if you want to elevate your brand, or simply create a deeper connection with your audience and clientele, this episode is perfect for you. And without further ado, let’s hear April and her story!   In This Episode: 4:15 Why story-telling is vital for your business 7:20 How April went through her process of stepping up to share her own story 8:20 Your story is not about your highlight reel - this is what it is really aiming to do. 10:05 You don’t have to have a “trauma story” to have a good story to share 14:00 story-telling leads to massive self-confidence 16:47 Why energy sensitive coaches struggle to be visible (hint: valuing yourself and building confidence)! 21:22 Be authentic- you can’t borrow someone else’s story!   Soul Stirring Quotes: “Story-telling is a way of deeply connecting as a human being.” “Story-telling allows your business to go from transactional to transformational.” “You need to show the humanness behind your brand and your story can do that.” “I think social media is a really beautiful thing.” “Really expanding your own awareness and knowledge of other ways of thinking, of being around people in different cultures expands your own views of the world. All of that has happened to me because I show up sharing my story and I do it in a visible way.” “You can't borrow someone else's story because that's not authentic.”   Links Mentioned: April’s Website: LIGHTbeamers.com On Facebook: facebook.com/LIGHTbeamers Her Private Group: facebook.com/groups/LIGHTbeamersCommunity On Instagram: @lightbeamers Her Book Flash Briefing: bit.ly/storyflash
