A weekly podcast (plus some other very cool stuff) about stories - the contemporary, personal narrative kind - and the people that craft and tell them.
Why you ask? Well, we want to feature these tellers and their GRIT stories. Also, to help you - our listeners - craft and tell better, more engaging, more relatable and more memorable stories (that matter!)
Sean Wellington is a teacher, speaker and story coach. He lives in Chapel Hill, NC

Sean’s Got it Going On
Love this podcast. Such an awesome source for anyone who wants to tell better stories. Sean knows his stuff, LIVES in the story world, is a great at listening for what works and does not work in a story, and is a fun and smart interviewer.
