As CEO of First Time Storytelling, I aim to foster a dynamic and engaged workplace where our people are driven not merely by the pursuit of excellence, happiness, and high performance but by the collective challenge of solving complex personal, organizational, and world problems. First Time Storytelling is founded on Kingdom Principles (faith-based) and is informed by psychology and neuroscience.Our guiding star is a vision that reverberates with the renaissance of human connections, compassion, collaboration, and evolution, all channeled through the power of personal stories.We firmly believe that amidst an age of growing division, stagnation, and profound loneliness, the heartbeats of personal stories can weave a fabric of unity, hope, and meaning. As heralds of this personal storytelling revolution, we aim to bridge divides and foster understanding on multiple fronts - between individuals and families and throughout communities, organizations, neighborhoods, and cities.At the core of our mission is a commitment to individuals. We serve as guides on the journey of self-discovery and introspection. We assist clients in navigating the depths of their experiences, helping them to discover, comprehend, and articulate their unique identities while also empowering them to author the next chapters of their lives with ease, purpose, and authenticity.Yet, our vision is not limited to the individual. We recognize the transformational impact of personal storytelling within the realms of organizations and businesses.By introducing the Art of Personal Storytelling to these entities, we aim to cultivate enriched interpersonal dynamics. This translates to an enhanced organizational culture, greater understanding of diversity and inclusivity, robust teamwork, deep-seated camaraderie, and a level of communication that echoes with sincerity and understanding.
