Olly Richards on storytelling and mindset shifts in business
April 27, 2023
In these episodes, I’m speaking with Olly Richards, the founder of StoryLearning. In the first half of our talk, we discuss the importance of stories and the stress of growing a business.
Olly describes the role of storytelling in language learning and how he built his methodology around it. He also shares what makes it so effective as a marketing tool for small businesses.
In the second part of the interview, we continue talking about the relationship we have with money as business owners, the anxiety that can result, and how to overcome those feelings.
