Handouts will be given, including resources so students can continue learning on their own.
  • "Using Storytelling In the Corporate World." - An opportunity to explore the power of narrative to increase sales, resolve human resource matters, build teams and leaders - and all within the business arena. Storytelling is an ancient tradition that packages information in a memorable way. Facts and figures are linear, while storytelling captures a listener’s attention and imagination. Stories evoke memories and personal associations. If you want to connect with your target market - tell a story! In this interactive workshop, you will learn the most compelling ways to incorporate the six broad areas of storytelling into your business model. Practice individually and work in small groups to explore storytelling for your organization. 
  • "In Our Own Voice - Learning to Tell Personal Stories for Empowerment." - This half-day workshop focuses on the Power of Storytelling. We all carry life experiences within our bodies, minds and spirit. This class teaches how to tell our own stories to gain release from fear, negativity or whatever precludes our enjoying life to its fullest. After listening to worldwide folktales and animal fables about the human condition, we will then discuss how these ancient tales relate to each personal story. Included in the class will be writing exercises and group discussions to aid in telling our own tales. Also, each student will create an "empowerment rite of passage" necklace to keep.
  • "Who Cares For the Caregiver?" - A workshop for therapists, teachers, nurses and all caregivers who experience stress, burnout and depression.
  • "Talking Medicine: Honoring the Healing In Storytelling." - Focused on instructing therapists, counselors and case workers, this class will explore the viability and practical application of metaphor within the healing community. This workshop teaches the true art and power of healing storytelling and how it impacts individuals.  

  • "Sacred Bread Crumbs: Follow the Trail of Healing Throughout Storytelling." - Explore the healing power of Story as it permeates all aspects of the human experience. This seminar is designed for experienced tellers; we recognize the responsibility that comes with touching lives and souls through oral tradition. Susi Wolf's belief is that all storytelling is healing and tellers are needed in our community more than ever. We can use the sacred power of Story in everyday lives. As part of her teaching, she will share her storytelling experiences within the therapeutic community, as well as other venues.
