The Inspiration
The concept of Career Story Nights is deeply personal for me as a founder of a new business and as someone recovering from a head injury when I felt called to create this concept.
Since its conception, it's grown and has had a profound impact on those who attend.
While recovering from a head injury in April and May, unable to engage with life in all of the usual ways, the one thing I could do that didn’t interfere with the healing process was listen.
Listen to podcasts, books and stories. No headphones or AirPods allowed; good old-fashioned listening.
Listening without visuals stirred something else in me, and I later researched the science of it. The brain areas engaged when listening to stories differ from those used for processing practical information. I continue to read about the effects of the brain because mine suffered for a while.
Through Storytelling, science shows us that neurologically, we’re processing, imagining, and visualising the story and having emotional reactions and sensations. Chemically, we release feel-good hormones oxytocin and dopamine. This is where we root for the storyteller and see ourselves in the stories, for example. We’re emotionally invested in the outcome, building empathy and trust.
That’s when I was inspired to create a concept called Career Story Nights.
With all this new knowledge and inspiration, I’ve invited a small group of friends, colleagues, and clients to come together tonight to share and experience each other's career stories. A no-screen-zone.
I’ve created writing prompts to balance active listening with writing—I'm excited to share another chapter of Your Career Space.
So today, I celebrate my accident; nothing happens by chance. Having a head injury truly inspired me.
