A quick note from Cate:

These earlier episodes come from a previous chapter of my work, before my focus shifted to writing and publishing books through The Luminous Press.

They’re still well worth a listen, so I’ve kept the full archive available.

If you’d like to stay in touch and hear about my books — including the ADHD Mum series — you can join my reader newsletter here: www.theluminous.media/newsletter/


Stories and storytelling is something of an obsession of mine. As a teenager I used to take my tape recorder into the hospital ward where my mum worked, and interview the old ladies about the stories of their lives. I’ve often wondered why I used to do that; but I think it’s because I’m interested in people; I want to understand them; because I think it helps us understand ourselves.

That’s why I always tell my clients that if you want to let people in more, all you’ve got to do is start telling your story. Obviously that’s easier said than done - because, how do you know you’re telling the right story, for the right reasons, at the right time? Because those things do matter.

This episode is getting you started with understanding why your story is one of your most important business assets, and why storytelling is one of your most valuable business tools. Here’s how to get started.
