Storycatcher by Christina Baldwin is a great book for those who are new to telling their personal stories. Telling stories is a way to educate others and effectively shape cultures. Christina Baldwin helps us learn how to write and tell our own stories. A recommended read as we begin our work together.

Synopsis

This remarkable guide illustrates the compassion, empathy, and humanity attainable when sharing stories with another person. At the same time, it encourages readers to identify their own personal stories and learn to actively cherish and strengthen them for a stronger sense of fulfillment. Story, the author contends, is the lifeblood of who we are — it helps us position our own identity in the larger world and focuses us on our own history. Stories, in essence, individualize us, and Christina Baldwin invites her readers to unlock the immense power that story holds for each of us.
