There is a whole lot to being a mother. Sure, dads have their share of stuff to deal with. Hearing stories about the  ups and downs of being a mother helps me to see a world I don’t live in. Being in the presence of my mom and my wife and all the other mom’s that I know doesn’t mean I know their view. That is the draw of the storytelling podcast Expressing Motherhood. It’s based out on the west coast on a regular storytelling show. Most of the storytellers are women talking about being a mom, or interacting with other moms in all of the many parts. The creators, Shannon Noel and Stacie Burrows, were aiming for a platform to everyday moms to tell their extraordinary stories. In that measure, I’ll say they succeeded in doing just that. Don’t take my word for it. Check out the link below for more info about the podcast.

After years of being an instructor in the military and the and the fire service, I realized I needed to improve my delivery. My students needed me to improve delivery. But how do I improve my delivery? Simple. I finally took a member of Toastmasters up on the invitation to come to a meeting. It wasn't long until I joined. Along the way of improving my skills at delivering a message, I came to understand that of all the ways to get a point across, telling stories is the best way to get it done. Around this time, another friend from Toastmasters told me about The Moth monthly story telling shows. What better way to test out my theories on storytelling. It's in my travels there to the shows that I found more and more shows, and classes, and events centered around storytelling. Despite how many people know about the storytelling world, not many people know about the storytelling world. So now, I'm out to tell the world about storytelling.
