Storyteller Tables launch: a huge success Storyteller Tables launched on March 25th with an electric evening of connection and storytelling. Atlanta's fastest-growing network of speakers gathered for a dynamic fireside chat with Javier Santana , Chief Experience Officer at Chemistry agency. As founder, I introduced the community and ignited excitement for what's ahead. With incredible energy and engagement, the momentum continues. Empowering leaders: training for Vibha's national team I was thrilled to partner with Vibha , one of the most highly rated nonprofits with international reach, to provide public speaking and storytelling leadership training for their national leadership team. Helping underprivileged children gain a quality education is an incredible mission, and strong communication is key to driving impact — I was excited to support their team through a transformative four-part series. Storytellers in action: using notes isn't cheating — it's strategy Using notes can be the difference between feeling lost on stage and staying in control. Standing under bright lights, with every eye on you, feels completely different from a casual conversation. In those moments, your mind can go blank. I use notes in every single presentation — not as a crutch, but as an anchor. If I lose my train of thought, feel a wave of nerves, or catch a puzzled look from the crowd, I glance at my notes and ground myself again. I personally use 3x5 index cards: sturdy, simple, and they fit in my hand like a glove. Notes help me stay present and focused, and they can do the same for you.
