What is it that triggers an "ah ha" moment, what is it that takes a moment from obscurity to clarity?
For JD Gerschbein, it was the combination of his experience in
healing, as a child of a physician and as a medical student, and
the desire to provide practical guidance for people to improve
their potential in career and life that brought him to his
moment.
"JD, I know you'll share useful information about LinkedIn for this audience... Share your story. Tell them what brought you here."
Tell them your story.
That moment was pivotal for JD, and he shared the story about the comment from the event coordinator and how that shifted his entire perspective about being a speaker, consultant, and all around more effective communicator.
What I loved about this conversation was the practical application of focusing on stories as a connection point, and as an opportunity to find clarity in your work.
The time flew by as we recorded, and I hope you find it as inspiring as I did.

About Sarah:
In my
work with coaching clients, I guide people to improve their
communication using storytelling as the foundation of our work
together. What I’ve realized over years of coaching and podcasting
is that the majority of people don’t realize the impact of the
stories they share - on their internal messages, and on the people
they’re sharing them with.
My work with leaders and people who aspire to be leaders follows a similar path to the interviews on my podcast, uncovering pivotal moments in their lives and learning how to share them to connect more authentically
with others, to make their presentations and speaking more engaging, to reveal patterns that have kept them stuck or moved them forward, and to improve their relationships at work and at home.
The audiobook, Your Stories Don’t Define You, How You Tell Them Will is now available!
Included with your purchase are two bonus tracks, songs recorded by Sarah's band, Spare Change, in her living room in Montana.
