Storytelling Camp
Serious Professional Development
...for professionals that don't take themselves too seriously
8-week group program
Master the art of persuasive storytelling in a fun & friendly environment.
Gather 'round the campfire and I'll tell you a story...
Once upon a time, the term "professional development" used to make me cringe. It invoked images of a neverending to-do list of skills I "should" be working on. It was a recipe for guilt and resentment. (No wonder I avoided it!)
But here's the odd thing...
I LOVE learning. So why was professional development feeling like such a chore?
I realized I had been ignoring a key part of the learning process: play.
We learn best when we allow play into the process. And we play best when we do it with friends.
That’s why I created Storytelling Camp, a group coaching program to help folks of all walks learn how to tell a great story and practice in front of others.
(And be prepared to bust out the s'mores, because I'm determined to have a good time as we do it!)
Whether you're looking to
- Hone your elevator pitch
- Get visible on social media
- Captivate a jury, or
- Impress the heck out of your dinner party guests
Storytelling Camp is for you.
What you'll get...
Learn and practice:
- How to craft and deliver stories the human brain is hard-wired to respond to
- The performance techniques used to create “stage presence” and to keep an audience engaged
- The improv skills needed to speak on the spot without hours of memorization
All while meeting a group of new people to share your storytelling journey with!
"I learned how to own the room.""
If you want audience members to lean forward when you're speaking, even when you're presenting on a technical subject like computer programming, you need to hire Sara.
Working with her one-on-one gave me the tools to walk into any speaking engagement feeling like I can own the room.
- Matthew Griffith, Staff Engineer, Vendr
"Sara WILL help you improve."
Sara will instill you with the confidence you need to succeed before a crowd or on camera. She understands the art of storytelling, the power of one’s voice and brings a wealth of knowledge, experience, and insight to every lesson.
In addition to being super talented, Sara is very accommodating, warm, and friendly. Highly recommend her!
- Lina Stillman, Labor and Employment Attorney
Here's how it works...
During this program, you’ll get together with Sara and other campers for 8 masterclasses (1 per week).
In each 1hr Zoom call, you’ll work on the storytelling technique of the week, and practice in a fun and playful group setting.
Attendance is limited so each student gets as much individualized feedback as humanly possible.
Because I'm a big old nerd about process, here's what else you can expect to get...
Bonuses
In addition to your 8 weekly masterclasses, you’ll also get:
- Recordings of each masterclass so you can watch back if you can't attend live (or just want to relive camp memories)
- PDFs and Google Docs containing presentation templates, practice exercises, and additional resources on vocal technique and storytelling fundamentals
- Email Access to Sara between sessions to get all your burning storytelling questions answered
