In a meeting not long ago, at the Chamber of Commerce in Carlsbad, I had the pleasure to hear Andria Taylor give a remarkable presentation: "Once Upon a Time... The Power of Storytelling for Your Business."
In a meeting not long ago, at the Chamber of Commerce in Carlsbad, I had the pleasure to hear Andria Taylor give a remarkable presentation. Her discourse, "Once Upon a Time... The Power of Storytelling for Your Business," was both delightful and insightful and I knew it needed a wider audience. And so, I convinced Andria to join me in the studio, to share her wisdom in a professional audio format.
Her tale was originally released as an episode on our Imagine Podcasting podcast, complete with a transcript and chapter markers for your convenience. But the power of her message, especially in this era where amplifying women's voices is of paramount importance, convinced me to present it to you again here at What Has My Attention.
It's a compact but potent 16-minute episode, a time well spent. If you need to reach out, you'll find me through the contact page on ImaginePodcasting.com https://www.imaginepodcasting.com/contact
