Storytelling on the Stage

Storytelling from the Stage

I have so many stories to tell! Let me share with you about adoption or foster care, healing from trauma, living internationally, creating meaningful community, faith-based inspiration, book writing, or self-publishing. Contact me, and let’s talk.

Check out these TEDx talks to get a sense of what I have to say.

How Story Empowers Kids

How Story Empowers Kids to Shape Our World.

You and I can champion the creativity and strengths within each child. Even as adults, we can tell stories, and sometimes those stories provide healing as well as a creative outlet.

So this is my challenge, if you are a teacher, speak story. If you are a parent, read stories. If you’re a writer, publish stories, an actor, perform story. Sponsor and plant libraries and theaters in developing communities. We each have a role to play.

Use pens, hope, and words to ignite and nurture the potential of our children, and ourselves. Reach a kid through story, and you will change the world.

Persuasive writing and story opened doors for me as a child. I didn’t have enough support around me to help me walk through that door, so my early careers went in a different direction.

However, over time I circled back around and now I coach people on how to share their stories. I help adults, and children, stoke their creativity.

Listen to the talk. If it inspires you, let me be the mentor and help you turn your creative dreams into reality.

USStreetWomen TEDx with Marcy Pusey

You Are More Than Your Traumatic Experiences

We all have, or will have, experiences with traumatic events. Imagine if we could channel our pain into resilience, creating safe spaces for healing our experiences with traumatic events. Transformed by the murder of her mother-in-law, Marcy Pusey, Certified Trauma & Resilience Practitioner, reveals how healing starts with the bravery of self-love, confronting the messages we tell ourselves, and believing we are more than our trauma.

The Mile Before the Race

The Mile Before the Race

I remember circling the track… before the race even began. We’d done our warm-up exercises and were taking a little jog. Or so I thought. “Why are we running a mile before the race even starts?” I panted at my dear friend. A friend who got this non-runner running this...

Gratitude and Grown-Ups

Gratitude and Grown-Ups

We have a practice with our kids that when they are stuck in a complaining-only mode- we make them say a certain number of things they are thankful for.
In past post I’ve written about how magical this can be. It works on my 2 year-old, 4 year-old, 11 year-old, and 12 year-old. Today I re-realized that it also works on a 30 year-old.

Start a Library Project

Start a Library

Help children in developing countries gain access to story by supporting the Start a Library project in Kenya.

Thousands of Kenyan public school children have low proficiency in literacy. A significant factor is the lack of access to storybooks and other reading materials. When children don’t have storybooks, they miss out on a creative, easy to understand text-rich environment, which is necessary for nurturing the skills to read and write.

The vision of Start a Library is to put a book in every child’s hand and nurture a generation of life-long readers. The program establishes model libraries in schools with a minimum of 1,500 storybooks in English and Kiswahili. 

The program also trains teachers to run vibrant reading programs.

As an advocate for storytelling and the value books have for children, I support this program. I hope you’ll join me. For further information visit their website: startalibrary.org
