The Power of Storytelling

Sep 28, 2024 | Blog

It is likely that I will forget that I am on the panel and ask Taimi a lot of questions! 
 
I have held space for 1000’s of stories in my time as a clinician, heard a lot of lived experience stories done well but also a lot of sharing publicly that needed more awareness of the psychological impact.

Looking forward to hearing from Taimi Allan, Mental Health Commissioner for South Australia about what we all need to consider as facilitators, performers, podcasters, speakers and content creators. Mental Health and lived experience stories are certainly needed to break down barriers, educate, and normalise experiences, but how do we do that safely?

The bonus of hearing from the beautiful bogan marc ryan, this is a night not to be missed – please tag your leaders, interviewers, conference curators, actors, script writers, trainers, facilitators, speakers, and anyone that shares stories with others.

I am looking forward to pondering, connecting and becoming more aware of how to safely share impactful stories – for what it’s worth I will share an opinion or two!
