Redlines

There are some changes coming, including some rebranding and a move from this page to Helen Harwood Snell. As I discover more of my own story I am merging my two business under the story banner. Storytelling is as much about knowing your own story as it is speaking into your client's story. I love this photo to make the strong point of knowing your client avatar. Learn more about storytelling with me tomorrow at 1pm EST in my workshop Attracting Clients with Business Storytelling for only $30. Bonuses include a personalized communication profile, a My Story Bio template, and a Story Library guide. https://www.facebook.com/events/1807498979403858

I am multi-passionate. I love writing stories for business. But the main focus of my blog is about our health and the health of the planet. I also run another business with a focus on toxic free high performance personal care.... And these boxes? They represent another passion I have for inclusion. I wrote a chapter in a book this year of stories to our children. My youngest child has Down Syndrome. She is the main reason I’m an entrepreneur. And she’s the reason I live life in stories. I envision an arm of my health and wellness biz with a team of special needs adults. Wouldn’t that be great? This collection of stories from parents of special needs kids spoke to me as my first writing project. I can’t wait to receive my copies of For the Love of Our Children. #storyteller #firstbook #specialneeds #inclusivity #passionproject #lifeisastorytellit #fortheloveofourchildren

Southern Ontario had a major snowfall this weekend. I love snow. I love the quiet. I love the way it reflects light. I love the contrasts of colour it creates.... We had a lot of fun in the snow yesterday. How about you? Share me your winter wonderland shot from the weekend. #snowday #winterwonderland #beautyinnature #firstsnowfall #snowywalks #snowstories #lifeisastorytellit See more

Are you living true to your story? Would you like to learn more about how stories connect with clients to develop real relationships? Tonight I’m at DHSBA: Ask the Expert event. And November 26 I’m running a workshop on developing your story library. DM me for more info on either event!

Did you know you can buy curated articles to re-purpose? If you're not a writer, or don't have the time this is a great way to share content through a blog, or even in your social media platforms in smaller chunks. But it's also a great way to use past presentations, website material, emails, or blogs to produce new content without starting from scratch. One of my writing skills is re-purposing content. Or I can teach you some easy steps to do it yourself.

Have you been told to discover your 'why'? Do you even know where to start? Or have you made a bigger 'why' to look philanthropic? I struggled for a long time in my MLM to connect with that 'why' until I discovered my story.... A story interview could be just the thing to connect your skills, passion, and purpose. Clarity on your brand and mission can become much clearer when someone else finds the common threads in your story. Let's connect if you would like to uncover your business story.

It’s #worldkindnessday There is a lot of division in the world right now. A change of perspective doesn’t mean a change of opinion. It means having an open mind.... If we approach solutions with peace and truth we all win. #truthseeker #peacemaker #storiesmatter #listenwithyourheart
