Ep. 359  WHAT’S A STORY DIG?

Jul 9, 2026

Stories well told can be inspiring, entertaining and enlightening. However, sometimes speakers inadvertently omit the most compelling elements of their stories.

Today Darren and Mark discuss the STORY DIG…a process for excavating the backstory, character motivation, and emotional depth that the speaker is too close to see themselves.

 

SNIPPETS:

• Get a qualified coach to ask the right questions


• Dig deeper

 

• There’s a WHY behind every story

 

• Uncover the emotional component behind the story

 

• Find what goes beyond the hero’s apparent primary goal

 

• Look for relatable details that connect your audience to you

 

• Find moments that help you to tell a better story

 

• When we are too close to our story, we miss compelling moments

 

• Uncover material that you may not use…yet

 

• Unearth forgotten experiences

 

• Find the gold inside you
