One of the recurring themes on Out From the Inside is that sharing your story creates connection and understanding. The transformative power of our authentic interaction with others make LGBTQ people healers and teachers. We have opportunities every day to use the power of our stories to make a positive impact on the collective consciousness. YAY!

Whether it’s sharing a brief moment in one-on-one conversation or making a video that brings your story to the world, you have the power to create change. Just by being you.

 

 

On my radio show this week, we’ll be talking about the power of our stories with Nathan Manske, creator of  I’m From Driftwood- True stories by gay people from all over.

If you are not familiar with the project, I urge you to check out the website. The first time I visited the site, I ended up spending hours watching stories filled with courage, hope, strength and humor. Captivating and moving stuff, and well worth some of your precious internet time.

We’ll be discussing what inspired Nathan to create the project and his personal story. Nathan will also give us his experiential insight into how best to frame a story in a way that touches people. We’ll also be taking your calls. I’d love to hear from those who have participated in the project, as well as your reactions to the videos.
