Claudia, YES! Storytelling is like a superpower. It’s not just about sharing experiences, it’s about creating connection, trust, and even transformation. Honestly, the best marketers and leaders are the ones who can tell a story that makes people feel something.
What’s a story you’ve told recently that really landed with your audience more than others?
Very inspiring, Andy ✨ You've seen a lot of creative action worldwide, and that's truly amazing. I love how you say, "It's not the city and surroundings but the human inner richness that sparks creation." Completely agree. This is golden: "I still have a dream. And I’m not stopping anytime soon." Bravoo
Toni, thank you so much for your kind words! It means a lot that my article resonated with you. I truly believe that inner richness is where all great creation starts—it’s what keeps the dream alive.
What’s a dream or creative spark you’re chasing right now? I’d love to hear about it!
Toni, that’s a solid goal. Success on Substack isn’t just about numbers, it’s about creating something that resonates, builds community, and leaves a mark. What’s one thing you’re doing right now to move closer to that vision? I bet there’s a spark in there worth amplifying.
Stuart, thanks for that. Storytelling is everything. It’s how we connect, inspire, and move people to action. I’d love to hear, what’s a story that’s inspired you recently?
Andy, this is such a rich and layered piece. It’s not just about storytelling, it’s about the why behind it. That Joan Didion quote sets the tone perfectly because, honestly, stories are how we make sense of the chaos and beauty of life.
I love how you’ve woven your personal journey into this, starting with fiction, moving into documentary-style storytelling, and then blending the two. That shift from creating worlds to shining a light on the unseen corners of reality is powerful. And your shift from filmmaker to coach is such a natural evolution when you think about it.
This piece isn’t just inspiring, it’s a masterclass in how to live and create with purpose.
Thank you for sharing your journey and your wisdom.
so, so true - storytelling is such an amazing skill to have!
