Have you ever wondered how the power of storytelling can transform lives and build connections? We sat down with Shereese Floyd, founder of the Witness My Life movement and contributor to Entrepreneur Magazine, to explore the magic of personal narratives in healing, fostering community, and developing a positive business culture. Shereese shares her own incredible journey, ignited by a moment in the 2008 Summer Olympics, and how it led her to create a career that unites people through the power of their own stories.

In our conversation, we delve into the role of storytelling in building community and civility, even when opinions and views differ. Shereese explains how sharing our stories can create empathy and understanding, helping people live together in peace. We also discuss her work with small businesses and women, assisting them in developing their thought leadership and crafting content that gets noticed. Listen in as we uncover the potential of storytelling in the workplace and how it can contribute to a more inclusive and welcoming environment.

Lastly, Shereese and I tackle the barriers that women face in the workplace, emphasizing the need to break not just the glass ceiling, but the entire box. We discuss societal expectations placed on women and Shereese's efforts in creating a thought leadership academy to help women share their stories in powerful ways. Join us as we explore Shereese's ultimate legacy of love, light, humanity, and her relentless pursuit of showing us who we truly are and why we're here. Don't miss this inspiring conversation that celebrates the beauty of our unique stories and our ability to thrive together.
