The Stories We Live and the Stories We Tell

An indie author spotlight with travel writer and teacher Michelle Ray

The versions of yourself that you hide away deserves their stories told, too.

Michelle Ray is writing her memoir to share the lessons her younger self learned the hard way while traveling and teaching abroad in the middle east and South America. Join us as we hear from her rich experience and learn more about:

  • The process of writing and the inner work it prompts

  • How we reconcile with versions of ourself that we are uncomfortable with

  • The journey of becoming and how our stories get woven together with others’

  • The significance of the real life stories we live and how we use the language of story structure to communicate our message with others who need it

  • How storytellers are empathy teachers and help divided people connect genuinely

  • And the power of focusing on the slow process and the real community around us over the finished product.

Follow along with Michelle’s journey as she works toward publishing her memoir on her Substack publication or on her brand new website!
