LESSON 7 · Storytelling That Captivates

The Origin Story

To find your origin story, ask yourself: when did you first realize what you care about most? What experience shaped your worldview in a way that still drives your decisions today? What moment do you keep returning to when someone asks why you do what you do?

Your origin story does not need to start at birth. It starts at the moment of transformation — the point where something shifted inside you permanently. That shift is the engine. Everything before is context. Everything after is consequence. Find the shift.
