#115: How To Speak More Creatively In Your Business Storytelling
We often see creative people as larger than life. People like Elon Musk, Maya Angelou, and Leonardo Da Vinci seem to have achieved a level of genius that is beyond anything we could ever imagine.

Thinking outside of the box is an invaluable skill, and today’s guest will show you how to harness your inner creative genius.
