Start Your Storytelling Here: The introduction to 'No Story Stagnates'
Thank you for joining me on this journey through our stories.
On my SKOOL platform, I will talk about the events I run and the people I have helped tell their stories. And now I am looking to work with business owners and interesting people to tell stories, and tell them well.
Why?
Who am I to start a podcast?
Whoever begins a Skool must surely ask themselves, 'Who Am I?' to start a post?
Perhaps you have been reading and listening to other people offer content on a subject; you are confident that your experience with the work can benefit the public and business owners.
My skill, my experience and my passion are in storytelling. I don't mean just telling fictional stories; I believe we all have a story, and we should be telling it well.
But first. Who Am I? Let me tell you a story.
My story starts 71 years ago when a private in the Royal Warwickshire Regiment was drinking in the Granby Arms, Attleborough. My dad.
You see, during the war, he served with the Regiment on the Ack-Ack guns and mortars. He was an athlete. He played soccer, rugby, ran, but most of all boxed for the battalion.
He ate his meals with the officers and never drank. Until a few years after demob, and celebrated with friends.
He drank three pints and began to feel 'woozy', and decided to get some fresh air.
As he reached the door, he tripped and, falling into the street, bumped into my mother-to-be and fell over. They knew each other, and that is what may have saved my life before it started. She picked him up and took him to her house around the corner.
That is how I was born. Not that night! A year after they married. The date, 18th of December, 1949
So, you see, our stories could be traced back to a time we were not even a thought, a vision or an atom.
Then, we enter the world of relationships, and new stories begin to evolve. These were emotional stories which often impacted us daily.
The stories often overwhelmed us emotionally and, as such, pushed our past stories deeper into our psyche. Those previous stories then become stuck. Those stories often become our 'go-to' emotions when life turns sour.
So, I am Ernie Boxall, and I'm a storyteller. I have also been a fitness instructor, tai chi teacher, shiatsu practitioner and supply teacher. I mentor people who feel anxious speaking to a live audience, people who have learned to keep their stories to themselves and people who are not comfortable with who they are.
This is me. Ernie Boxall. More comfortable with who I am than I have been at any time in my life. More sure that my story is worth telling and more confident, I can make an impact on people's lives by allowing their story to be told, by making sure that No Story Stagnates.
