Join Professional Storyteller and Storytelling Coach, Lani Peterson, in this workshop to find, explore and tell meaningful stories from your lived experience. Throughout the workshop we will engage in a series of exercises that will pull out the important moments of your life and the lessons within that you want to share with others. Whether you want to develop your stories to tell your children, your colleagues, or perform on stage, this workshop will help you transform the meaningful experiences of your life into a story worth telling. 

During this workshop, we will: 

• Look at traditional tales to understand the arc and content of a good story. 
• Uncover the meaningful experiences in your lives that lead to a good story. 
• Plot the chronological arc, the emotional arc, and the insight arc to build the bones of an impactful story. 
• Develop your story with the richness of supporting details and the senses. 
• Tailor your story to your audience and intended message. 
• Practice delivering your story with ease and impact. 

All levels of storytelling expertise are welcome. Working in a safe and supportive environment, each person will leave with a developed personal story that will evolve and deepen throughout the course of the workshop. Come ready to explore, listen, learn, and share!
