160. Dennis Rebelo – Story Like You Mean It: How to Build and Use Your Personal Narrative to Illustrate Who You Really Are

Dr. Dennis Rebelo is the author of a book called “Story Like You Mean It: How to Build and Use Your Personal Narrative to Illustrate Who You Really Are”. Dr. D is a professor, speaker, a career coach. He’s the creator of the peak storytelling model, a research-based method for crafting the narrative of who you are, what drives you, and why. His method has been used by not only former professional athletes, guidance professionals, and advisors, but also nonprofit leaders, as well as entrepreneurs and CEOs around the world. This book and this approach provide structure to really identifying what are those key moments of your life that you can share when you meet others, whether it’s for an interview, making a first impression, or simply running into somebody you haven’t seen in a long time. We often have the chance to answer the question, “Tell me about yourself”, which can be one of the simplest yet most difficult questions to answer. In this interview, Dennis joins Brilliant to discuss why that’s so hard, how to do it well, and why it really matters. Dennis has made the connection between understanding our personal identity with our ability to tell our own story accurately and mindfully. Through this interview, we learn not only how to tell our own stories but also how it is essential to good living. “Put the work in and your story works out.” This week on the School for Good Living Podcast: How understanding your story is an essential Key to Good LivingAnswering the age old question “Tell me about yourself”Why is it so hard to tell our own life storiesOur hero side, our collaborating side, and our virtuous sideIdentity and telling your storyHow to make sure your writing is conveying your storyDeciding what message to give to the worldResources Mentioned: DrDennisRebelo.comgoodliving.comConnect With The Guest: Dennis RebeloSubscribe and sign up for more!
