Why a storytelling module just for women?
Preethi provides a safe environment to explore storytelling at a much deeper level and discuss topics women may not necessarily feel comfortable doing in a mixed group (e.g. imposter syndrome, having to become someone else to fulfil potential).
Why Preethi? Why this module?
Preethi teaches the front end of storytelling (how to tell a great story and present it well) but more profoundly, she understands the immense transformational power storytelling has; how by changing a narrative, you can unleash great personal power.
