Episode Summary
​

From a very young age, American children across the country are indoctrinated in cultural stories that are both untrue and harmful. While they hide behind kernels of truth, the stories of Columbus and The First Thanksgiving have served to create and  promote a national identity as well as a variety of political agenda's. Among these agenda's - the diminishment of crimes perpetuated against the indigenous people's of North America.  On this episode, Michael explores why we choose believe and promote stories that are untrue and cause harm to others.

    About The Show:

    Stories are mischievous little buggers that have been shaping our personal and cultural identities for over ten thousand years. On this podcast, we take a careful look at just how that is. Why? Because while some stories have the ability to lift us up, transform and make us feel whole, others have the ability to divide, mislead and keep us playing small - and who’s got time for that non-sense?

Success isn't a logical pursuit.

It's a mytho-logical quest!


​
Few things are more frustrating than feeling stuck after working hard to logic your way forward. Using a mytho-logical approach, I’ll help you define, craft, and tell the story of who you really are and what you have to offer the world so you can create the success you’re looking for.
