The Story Formula
Where the art of story meets the business of persuasion.
Learn Kelly’s proven formula for crafting and telling stories that connect, influence, and get results.
The most powerful tool you have to connect is STORY. Not only has Kelly been using that tool to change lives for twenty years as a funny motivational speaker, Kelly has been studying the tool and helping thousands of people in business learn how to incorporate that tool into their own skillset.
Kelly is different from other storytelling speakers because she doesn’t just tell you that it’s important. She teaches you why it matters – the science behind it – the psychology of its impact on the brain. Not only that, she has developed a formula to help take out all the guesswork. A formula that people have used in all different types of industries to help them craft powerful compelling stories in business and leadership.
But more than that…Kelly has a unique superpower. She can take a five-minute story from someone in the audience and in five minutes give them tips to make it more powerful. People are amazed at how Kelly can magically transform a story and prove its power. Some even call her a wizard as they watch her story hot seats. But the truth is that she has studied and used story for twenty years. She knows how it works, and she knows how to help you find the magic in your story.
