Our brains LOVE stories. And not just any stories...visual stories! Do you know how to use visual storytelling? Words alone aren't as impactful as powerful visuals.  This applies to everything: from presentation slides or emails, to love letters. Here’s where visual storytelling comes in! If people are struggling to remember your message, maybe it's time to brush up on your visual storytelling skills.

Luckily, my guest today is the incredible Janine Kurnoff. She is ready to teach us a few fun, easy-to-apply storytelling techniques, straight from her latest book Everyday Business Storytelling, so you can spend your weekends relaxing instead of putting slides together.
