If you've ever felt silenced, stuck, or scared to share your deepest truths, this episode is your lifeline. I'm diving deep with storytelling expert Katherine Kennedy about the transformative power of speaking your authentic story - and why your voice matters more than you could ever imagine. After last week's vulnerable episode about my own childhood trauma, I knew I needed to bring Katherine onto the show to explore how sharing our stories can heal, connect, and ultimately liberate us. Whether you're navigating midlife, wrestling with past experiences, or simply craving deeper connections, this conversation will inspire you to break your silence and step into your most powerful, unapologetic self. Key Takeaways:Vulnerability is a strength, not a weakness - sharing your authentic story can create deeper connections and personal growth.The "three C's" storytelling framework (Challenge, Choice, Change) can help you process and understand your personal experiences.Many women struggle with people-pleasing and hiding their true feelings, which prevents genuine connection and self-understanding.Writing can be a powerful tool for self-discovery - just 6 minutes of reflective writing each morning can provide significant insights.Speaking your truth isn't about perfection, but about showing your authentic journey and the lessons learned along the way.Midlife offers a unique opportunity to care less about others' opinions and more about personal authenticity and growth.Sharing your story isn't just for you - it can inspire and help others who may be experiencing similar challenges, creating a ripple effect of healing and connection.Katherine Says: You're Not Too F***ing Old! to share what's inside.Learn more about Jen Marples at https://www.jenmarples.comWant to work with Jen?

Today, I interview Katherine Kennedy, who grew up feeling the need to appear like everything was perfect, avoiding hard conversations and hiding behind a mask. As the youngest in her family, she was often seen as the one who brought fun and laughter, but underneath, she struggled to express her true emotions. This sense of needing to present a perfect life, while holding in difficult feelings, left her disconnected from her authentic voice.Her turning point came when she started working with students who were the first in their families to go to college. Listening to their stories of struggle and resilience helped her recognize her own need to speak her truth. Over time, Katherine learned to have deeper conversations with her family, especially her father, which brought them closer and allowed her to release the secrets she had held for so long.Now, Katherine guides others in finding their voices through storytelling workshops and retreats. She believes that finding your voice is a muscle that can be built over time, and she creates spaces for people to share their stories, just as she learned to do, fostering deeper connections and personal growth.__________________Katherine has spent over 30 years helping thousands of people share their stories with authenticity and confidence.

As human beings we have many unique ways of communicating with one another including sharing some of our most personal thoughts, which when verbalized or written down can give others a deeper insight into who we are inside.  This week's guest has learned, first-hand, and now teaches others that storytelling can be a powerful tool that each of us possesses, whether we know it yet or not.  Katherine Kennedy, a teacher, storytelling coach and author of the book, Speaking to What Matters: My story of learning how to share what's inside, released in fall 2023, discusses with us the topic of The Act of Storytelling.  Work with Danielle: If you are ready to start working with a life coach or just want to learn more about the impact that coaching can have in your life, visit Danielle's website at www.daniellemccombs.com and schedule a complimentary exploratory session.  Work with Kristy: You can work with Kristy one-on-one or hire her to speak with your team to improve workplace communication.

Have you ever sat down and shared your story with someone else or had someone share their personal story with you?  If so, what changed following that experience? Is there someone in your life that immediately comes to mind who you'd be comfortable storytelling with? Are you someone who would consider telling your story in public or would you prefer to write it down? Have you ever asked a parent, grandparent, or relative to share their story with you?  If not, following this episode, would you now consider it in order to potentially strengthen that bond?  

Today we get to talk with Katherine Kennedy and Jeremy Bastard, the Singer and Guitarist from the NYC-based band Autodrone, who have recently released the single Let It Ride, and are in production on a new album.  Autodrone formed in the early 2000s. They combine songwriting that draws upon the members' psychological damage, morbid interests, and broken hearts with influences drawn equally from 70s psych rock, 80s post-punk, and 90s shoegaze. From this miasma, they have forged a sound which is uniquely their own. It is dark, powerful, emotive, and akin to a nervous breakdown during a bad acid trip. @autodrone_nyc Listen to "Let It Ride" on Spotify

Every February, around this time, approximately 8 billion small heart-shaped candies are created and exchanged.  These candies bear messages of love and care, and are often used as gifts to express feelings for another person.   In each episode featuring a guest, we ask them if there are any words of wisdom they might share with their younger selves. These words of wisdom are like those Sweetheart treats, but instead of representing love for someone else, they are messages of love directed to our guests themselves, and by extension, to all of us.  We are so inspired by the wisdom our guests shared, so we put all these beautiful words together, as a little love treat for our listeners.  Enjoy!   Thank you to our amazing guests for their words of wisdom: Donna Peek, Darren Gold, Leslie McGuirk, Mike Robbins, Susan Olesek, Laila Tarraf, Nichelle Trambell Spellman, Rachel Bitecofer, Bridgette Corridan, Mary Lin McBride, Ali Ingersoll, Cara Jones, David Richman, Chris Pierce, Chris Tsakalakis, Jill Santa Lucia, Forrest Wright, Aisha Ponds, Donna Rhode, Kristin Firpo, Marney Sullivan, Deborah Egerton, Rebekah Rotstein, Daryan Rahimzadeh, Kat Gordon, Kat Williford, Jeff Slater, Bryan Gillette, Oneika Mays, Vanessa Loder, Kerri Kelly, Seane Corn, Sarah McDonald, Mary Felice, Shelly Tygielski, Joe Walsh, Rebecca Ward, Nicole Swiner, Natalie Grumet, Marti Grimminck, Ava Lashay, Maureen Aarons, Josh Izenberg, Trish Hegarty, Kim Hunter, Ashleigh Parker, Chris Hendricks, Danny Rosin, Michelle Simmons, Katherine Kennedy, Tony Lillios

We all have a story. But often our stories live just in our minds or hearts, never making it out into the world. Sometimes we hold back because we don't believe we have anything interesting or important to say, and other times it's because we simply don't know how to put it into words.  Katherine Kennedy spent much of her early career helping others tell their story but kept her own truth bottled up inside.  She helped launch young people into academic success and she coached professionals to unearth their authentic truths. But for years she held back from having the difficult conversations in her own life to help make sense of her own story until that finally became untenable. Listen in to hear Katherine's Perfectly Imperfect journey and her advice on how to access your own story.     Bio Katherine Kennedy has almost 30 years of experience helping people tell their stories. After two decades of building Summer Search into a national nonprofit and mentoring hundreds of youth, she launched her own coaching business in 2015 focused on helping people speak with more authenticity and confidence. She has coached clients on TED talks, toasts, presentations, interviews and the soul-affirming exploration of telling your story. She has a gift for helping you communicate in a way that lands right in the audience's heart. This is what she does for others and this is what she did with her book Speaking to What Matters: My story of learning how to share what's inside.   Katherine is a mom, wife, daughter, sister and friend. She is grateful to have found her purpose but knows that it is her relationships with the people in her life that make life meaningful and worthwhile. To her, this is what matters most.   https://katherinekennedysf.com/
