Knowing your Powerstory, especially if it is well formed and has an inspirational message can help you claim your power. On the Change thrivers segment of our show on “Telling the Story of SheVolution”, Fran Powers offered these steps to know and share your Powerstory:
1. Imagine there is a chair on stage with a spotlight on it. There are a 1000 people in the audience waiting for you to tell your story. Now ask yourself, “What one story am I going to tell the audience that would help them grow?” Once you find this story, not only it will inspire others but it will inspire you.
2. When you are putting the story together, give the story a very meaningful 1 sentence message. Memorize and repeat it often. Listen to it over and over.
3. Write that message down. Keep it with you and refer to it because those are your words and therefore they are more meaningful to you.
4. Trust that there is value in that message. You can inspire yourself with your own stories.
5. Put words around your story and then share it with others. Give your story as a gift and when you do, it will empower you.
