Dear friends: My latest blogpost talks about how changing the attitude to ones personal story would help emotional healing and the courage to share their story.The blogpost follows some storytelling ideas I’ve learnt over 20 years, ideas that helped me in journalism. I realise these ideas can help people create a self-vale and get virtually anything they want, from a dream job to connecting with investors and supporters of their charity work. These techniques help write an attractive job application to a compelling business/project plan.
At the end of the blogpost, there’s a form you can sign up to join the community of people with whom I’m sharing the techniques helping them craft their storytelling concepts to help their communication. It’s a wonderful collective learning system. And if you sing up, there’s a free DIY course waiting for you with tips on making your story inspirational. And much more. So, here’s the blog: You’ve beaten your challenges, you’re a hero. Now, let’s hear your story I still remember the evening as if it’s yesterday rather than the August of 30 years ago.

My mother, seated next to me in the auto-rickshaw, couldn’t stop sobbing and the shock that my future would be a vast sea of dark space was too numbing for me to show any reaction. As we found our way out of the clinic, someone held my hand and said how sorry he was that my future was doomed. It was, quite fittingly, the darkest hour of my life.
