If you’ve ever felt like your marketing was a never-ending hustle, story selling could be the game-changer you’ve been looking for. In this episode of The Traveling Therapist Podcast, I chat with marketing expert Kris Jones about how one powerful, well-told story can work harder than all your scattered marketing tactics combined.

If you’ve been searching for a way to market yourself with more ease, authenticity, and impact, this conversation will show you exactly where to start.

• Why you can’t outsource your voice and how to tell your story authentically
• The difference between your founder’s story and your brand narrative
