The Irresistible Magic of Storytelling

From the dawn of the caveman, humans have used storytelling as a way to connect, inspire, and empower. It’s hardwired into our DNA! Yet when it comes to interacting with our clients, we’re taught that educating means presenting facts, data, and recommendations. We all have a story, and veterinarians have some of the best ones of all. So why aren’t we using this powerful tool to better serve our clients and patients?

In this webinar, I’ll talk a little about my journey as a writer and how that helped me unlock one of the most powerful tools we have as clinicians. Understanding the story of veterinary medicine and the story of your clients is the secret tool that will help you better relate to your clients, create better branding, and build a trusting relationship that can vanquish the spectre of Dr. Google once and for all!
