Hi everyone 🤍
I just got off a call with a student who interviews professionals, and we looked at a simple way to turn a long interview into a clear, powerful story using actually one of my interviews as an example to demonstrate the below concept.
The key insight: People don’t remember information—they remember stories.
We used Joseph Campbell’s Hero’s Journey to extract the most important moments and structure them into a short narrative.
But here’s why this matters for YOU:
This isn’t just about editing videos.This is exactly why people freeze in meetings and presentations.
You’re trying to remember everything.There’s no structure. So your mind overloads → and you lose your message.
So, an impoertant structure in storytelling IS THE HERO'S JOURNEY.
Remember: Structure replaces overthinking. You stay clear, present, and in control—even under pressure.
