Whenever we do a new TEDx event, our first order of business is finding the theme to get everything flowing. It influences everything we do, from the set design to invited speakers and so much more.
So as we come up with theme ideas for our Santa Barbara TEDx event in 2019, nothing is really clicking.
We try phrases, single words, even full sentences and they all fall short. The theme candidates feel very generic and unexciting.
Then, it hits me: What if we take a deeper look at the role of stories through three different lenses: stories we tell, stories told to us, and stories we tell ourselves?
The team loves it! We finally have our theme, and it sets in motion our lense through which to look through for all our decision-making. And… our TEDx event ends up to be a huge success that year!
No speaking of stories, my incredible guest today, Brandy Gillmore, uses all three of those storytelling lenses in her life's work. In this episode of the Storytelling School Podcast, you'll learn about her healing journey from an accident in 2003 and what she discovered about the crucial role of stories in mind-body healing. You'll also get answers to questions like:
What are misconceptions in stories about mind-body healing? What is the story connection between our subconscious mind, emotions, and physical health? How can transforming stories you tell yourself lead to life-changing results?
What you will learn in this episode:
Who is Brandy?
Brandy Gillmore is a researcher, author, and mind-body expert. Spurred on by a debilitating injury from an accident in 2003 that left her disabled, in excruciating pain, and without hope for recovery, she began researching for a cure and discovered obscure research that changed the course of her life and resulted in a complete recovery. Now, she shares this research in her book Master Your Mind and Energy to Heal Your Body, which showcases our power to radically heal our bodies using only our minds.
Thanks to her groundbreaking discovery, Brandy has been featured in prestigious medical journals, on notable platforms (such as the Shift Network), and in several documentaries and docuseries including Women's Health Secrets, Thrive Global, Harper's Bazaar Brazil, Pain Revealed, and more! She's also been praised by medical professionals, health and wellness luminaries, global leaders, Hollywood celebrities, corporate tycoons, and people from all walks of life who've been captivated by her remarkable insights and results from her work.
