Marsha Shandur is the curator, organizer, and host of True Stories Told Live Toronto.   True Stories (Told Live) Toronto is a simple idea. A bunch of people having a drink in a back room in West Toronto — or, during the pandemic, their own rooms, but online — listening to other people telling true stories.   It’s not comedy, though it’s allowed to be funny. It’s not educational, but you might learn something. It’s not musical, but, each show, we include a story-telling musician.   There’s no theme each month. The only rules are that the story must be:   true about the guest told without notes 10 minutes long   Marsha also coaches people on storytelling for a living and shows people who think that they hate networking (and are bad at it), how to really enjoy it.     You can reach Marsha at:    Website: http://www.YesYesMarsha.com/screw Please do not hesitate to reach out the host of Screw the Naysayers.

Welcome back for another episode of Health Coach Conversations!  This is a special episode featuring Marsha of Yes Yes Marsha .  Today we are going to address marketing your practice, and the best ways for you to grow your business through marketing. As a bonus, we give you the 5 best FREE ways to market your practice. In this episode Cathy talks about the following: How to make your dream clients fall in love with you by using stories. Science behind how storytelling can affect our brains.   Tips to stand out storytelling to grab potential clients interest.    Emotional engagement, via storytelling.   What did it look like, how did it feel.   Humans love stories.  As humans we are wired to connect, we need it to survive, and storytelling has been in our blood for generations. Storytelling affects our brains - when you tell a story and tell it well, people’s brains respond as if they were in the story. When you engage potential clients emotionally, they get to know you very quickly and if you have similar viewpoints you instantly build trust there. The emotions in your stories can also affect the emotions of the listener; which not only helps them to remember what you said but also to remember you. We base all our buying decisions based upon emotions, so let your stories help you. We all have a ton of stories, but to tell a good story there are a few things to keep in mind. It’s  less about the narrative itself and more about how you tell it. Emotions are how we connect with others, break each story down to what did it look like, and how did it feel - leaving out these details are the difference between a story that jumps off the page and into the readers head vs something they scan over and immediately forget. Only use language that you would use conversationally, if you don’t actually exclaim “Tally-Ho!” on a regular basis, don’t put it into your stories. Start your stories with an action sequence, this is where you see the granular details that keep people hooked. There are also things you should avoid with your stories. Never share a story that you haven’t come to peace with yet, you emotional distance from it. If you don’t feel okay when telling the story, the listener will pick up on that and feel unsafe.  Only share one idea per story, anything that you edit out right now can be used again later or somewhere else - but keep your stories focused around one central idea. You are allowed to write and share more, I promise! One of the best things you can do for yourself to grow your own storytelling skills, is to read and listen to others tell their stories.  Tricks to Telling Unforgettable Stories!   The way you tell a story is much more important than what happens in it. Ask yourself two questions: What did it look like? And How did I feel? Always tell things in the chronological order that they happened to you. In order to edit your stories, think about what you most want to get across as a result of the story, and cut everything else. “Kill your darlings.” Always start your stories in an action scene - this is where you find granular details.  Things Mentioned In This Episode: Health Coach Membership Mastery Event Yes Yes Marsha Marsha's Facebook True Stories Toronto The Moth Podcast Jeff Walker Product Launch Formula Elena Lipson Jill Farmer Jeff Goins Alexandra Franzen The Brazen Bible     Links to resources: Health Coach Group Website Work with Marsha

My best friend's favourite story about my life by YesYesMarsha.com

She shows coaches, creatives and entrepreneurs how to make an INSTANT emotional connection with their dream clients, through both storytelling and effective networking. She is also the organizer and host of True Stories Told Live, Toronto's biggest storytelling show.

Life on Purpose Episode #66 is the long-promised return of the LoP Round-Table! For my third RT, I was joined by Marsha Shandur, Charles Gupton, and Rick Charlie. They are each storytellers and creatives who work in a variety of different mediums (podcasts, storytelling, blogs, photos, video) and each use prompts on social media to examine the human condition and show that "I Don't Have It All Together", as Marsha's weekly Tuesday post proves! They joined me for an in-depth conversation on the topic of "pretending" — both online and in-person — including examining why we do it, what's actually behind the "look how cool I am" postings many of us make, and what purpose is pretending serving? We also discussed practical tips for being more authentic, intentional, and vulnerable in both your online and IRL interactions. This discussion was prompted by the following Facebook post from Rick Charlie, based on a question originally asked by author and motivational speaker Simon Sinek: Something to think about: How much of your time and energy is put into pretending? Pretending things are okay, when they are not. Pretending there is not pain, when inside you hurt so much. Pretending that you know what you are doing, yet are actually terrified of the next step. Pretending you have a really good life, but you are totally unsatisfied in it. Pretending that all those past things don't affect you, yet they really continue to plague you like an addiction you can't shake. Pretending that you have it all together when you don't even have a clue what it all is in the first place. How.Much.Energy?
