It’s the storyteller’s podcast, featuring everything storytelling, especially if you use stories to promote your business or charity (and you should!).

December’s Guest
December’s guest is David Mowat, Community Worker and Trumpet Player.
David is a community worker and trumpet player who's experimented this last 20 years in using music and story to build community across differences. Notably he’s tried to bring black and white working class experience in a historical show of the cotton plant called King Cotton. More recently he’s focused on Palestine and Gaza.
This link is to a promo of a show running next August (2021) at the Edinburgh Fringe called Longing Belonging and Palestine. https://youtu.be/eSNHWLGNavo
He uses his 10 minutes to tell the story behind a poem he wrote, the Quabbeth of Yaffa, about a wedding dress, and a woman called Reem Esmail Mahmued who lives in Gaza and is descended from Yaffa refugees. Through story he conveys the heart of the injustice and tragedy borne by Palestinians.
More stories are on his blog https://gazalifestories.wordpress.com

Chris Sissons has always loved stories and these days strides the streets of Sheffield always on the lookout for a new story. He was a Community Development Worker for 30 years and consequently is sceptical about almost everything.
I’m a marketing coach, using stories to open up business development in surprising ways. I underline the distinction between real and paid work. Many people are unhappy because they cannot find time for their real work – as we unravel the lockdown, we’re all challenged to step up and offer the world our own unique insights. They won’t always work but how else do we find the ones that do?

It’s the storyteller’s podcast, featuring everything storytelling, especially if you use stories to promote your business or charity (and you should!). We plan to produce an edition once a month with a guest.
October’s guest is Madeleine Black, has an unusual personal story which she uses to inspire and motivate others. She wants to end the shame, stigma and silence surrounding sexual violence enabling others to find their voice, whatever their story is.
In addition we discuss how lockdown has changed the haircut experience, hear one of Jemma’s songs, “As a Woman” and discover the meaning of the Blazon and Epizeuxis!
October’s Guest
Madeleine Black has an unusual personal story which she uses to inspire and motivate others. She chose to forgive the two men who gang raped her at thirteen years old and she shares her story for many reasons.
She wants to end the shame, stigma and silence surrounding sexual violence enabling others to find their voice, whatever their story is. She wants people to know that it’s not what happens to us that is important but what we do with it. She will show how changing her mindset tapped into her resilience and transformed her life, making people question their own thinking and encouraging them to see that there are always choices to make, and if we choose to, we can get past anything that happens to us in life both professionally and in our personal life. She wants to encourage others to live their life courageously too; but ultimately she wants to inspire hope and show people that we are all so much stronger than we think we are.
The sharing of her story publicly on The Forgiveness Project’s website in September 2014, opened many doors for Madeleine in ways she never imagined, and the invitations started to pour in. Many women and men got in contact and explained how reading her story gave them strength, hope, and a different perspective of what’s possible in their lives. She has taken part in both TV and radio interviews and has been invited to share her story of being gang raped as a teenager at conferences, book events, schools etc. She recognises that she was a victim of a crime that left her silent for many years but has now found her voice and intends to use it. Not just for her, but for so many who can’t find theirs yet.
In March 2018 she won the Amazing Strength award at the No. 1 Magazine Amazing Women Awards and in October of the same year was asked to be the Patron for Say Women, a Scottish organisation which offers safe accommodation and support to young women who are survivors of sexual abuse/rape and who are homeless. She is one of 50 Thrivers taking part in research by The Global Resilience Project to develop a resilience blueprint for others. She is a TEDx speaker, a story teller for The Forgiveness Project and has recently become involved with their programme RESTORE, sharing her story in prisons. In June 2020, she was asked to be Patron for Justice Is Now, an organisation that campaigns to end the use of rape myths and victim blaming in the criminal justice system.
Her memoir, Unbroken, was published on April 4th 2017 and continues to work as a psychotherapist

Find Tell Share is a new podcast co-hosted in Sheffield by Chris Sissons, Market Together and Jemma Rosenthal, Find Your Voice. It’s the storyteller’s podcast, featuring everything storytelling, especially if you use stories to promote your business or charity (and you should!). We plan to produce an edition once a month with a special guest.
This month’s guest is Roger Cheetham, Transformational Resilience. His story is about how walking his dog transformed his life forever. In addition we discuss sleeping in Sheffield’s Peace Gardens, character development in anime, how hard is it to tell a lockdown story and Brendon Burchard’s debt to Roald Dahl.
This episode's guest, Roger Cheetham is lucky to be alive. He faced a horrific life-threatening ordeal in June 2013 and in his own words has gone from victim, to survivor to "thriver", as he now describes himself.
Roger used his own resilient journey of overcoming trauma to help develop the resilience "muscle" in individuals and organisations from classrooms to boardrooms. Moving forward Roger envisages he will be spending a lot of time in front of classrooms and assemblies, as he plays his part in the UK government's "Catch Up" in Education initiative, as Roger believes with more resilient minds and hearts and the tools to achieve them, our next generation will achieve so much more, so much sooner. Find out all about Roger's story and how he's gone on to inspire thousands of others, worldwide, in this inaugural episode of our "Find, Tell Share" podcast.

The blog post I mention, Roles: Crossing the Line – is here: https://storiesinbusiness.org.uk/roles-crossing-the-line/
Toradora! has a complicated history, it began as a Japanese light novel series by Yuyuko Takemiya. There have been several incarnations of the story over the years but presumably she is the person who first developed the characters. Anime allows for a lot of space to develop a well-plotted story – this one is 25 24 minute episodes! Find it on anime sites such as Crunchyroll or Funimation – you may have to put up with adverts or it’s on Amazon Prime and possibly other streaming services.

I sang a tiny bit from Crazy Ex Girlfriend, which is on Netflix the song was, I’m The Villian in my own Story,
I also mentioned the film Peaceful Warrior
Then I also sang from Charlie and the chocolate factory, that was one of Roger’s films.
Here is the text of Jemma’s poem:
The Peace Gardens
A Garden of Peace
Meet us Here.
Where I lay, gently resting my worn out head,
Come meet us here..
Rest your tired hearts, and lay in the gentle stillness and smell the soft cut grass, let it soothe your mind, as your heart beats to the rhythms of trust.
A Garden of Peace, found in the present, in sweet surrender, for it has no other time,
So come, lay your head next to mine,
In the Garden of Peace.
Finally, contact Chris or Jemma if you have comments or questions. Questions may be featured on the podcast. If you appreciate it, please like and share. Thank you.
