"Have you ever considered that the key to your future success is a great story?

In this book, stage director, acting coach, and storytelling expert Carrie Klewin Lawrence will break it all down for you. Discover the necessary elements that will help you write your own story. She will teach you how to dig deep into your origins, gather evidence from your own life, and spin your story into a secret weapon for success.

Origin Story will make you reconsider everything you know about stories you have been told, the path you are currently on, and your future objectives. By investigating the stories you have held for decades, you will gain a new perspective, overcome imposter syndrome, conquer limiting beliefs, and gain control of your(self) narrative.

In Origin Story, you will learn:

CRAFTING: Explore the essential elements of an origin story and how to craft your own. DISCOVERING: Exercises to help you uncover the evidence of who you really are. CONNECTING: Whether preparing for an interview, a keynote, or creating social media content, you will have greater control over your(self) narrative.

Whether you are a business executive, an entrepreneur, a personal branding coach, or a creative, Origin Story will teach you how to craft, discover, and connect with the ultimate narrative.

Carrie Klewin Lawrence (she/her) is a quirky, collaborative stage director focused on social change. Carrie is also an acting coach, professor, personal branding coach, and mother of three, who loves traveling, photography, and dancing lindy hop. As the author of Origin Story, Carrie weaves personal discovery storytelling into a journey of action and evolution, encouraging readers to control their(self) narrative. Once, when she was ten years old, Carrie wrote a play called ""Little Red Riding Hood Says NO to Smoking"". Rediscovering that play, and subsequently reframing her own personal narrative, was the inciting incident for Origin Story."
