When I met my wife, I could cook a few things. Chief among them was Kraft Macaroni and Cheese with hotdogs, which my wife found delicious.
Having been raised on more healthy fare, this processed monstrosity was a welcomed change from whole grains and terrible vegetables.
I could also grill a burger and make most breakfast foods, but that was the extent of my cooking skills.
Then the pandemic hit, and to avoid the grocery store as much as possible, we ordered meal kits from Hello Fresh, complete with easy-to-follow recipe guides. By the end of the year, I could cook dozens, if not hundreds, of new dishes.
I also learned valuable skills like mincing, dicing, grating, testing, searing, and broiling.
Give me a recipe, and I could do it all.
But I was lost when I didn’t have a Hello Fresh meal kit. With a refrigerator full of food, I didn’t know what to make. So one day, I asked my wife how to throw things together like she did to produce something delicious. She opened the refrigerator and pantry and taught me how to think beyond the recipe card.
It took some time, but today, I can look at our ingredients in stock and almost always prepare something yummy. I’m not nearly the cook that Elysha is, but I can hold my own and feed my family with relative ease.
Sometimes, you need an expert to show you the way.
This is why I’ve decided to launch Storytworthy’s first Mastermind. As we prepare to launch the new, expanded, and much-improved version of my Storyworthy for Business course, I began thinking:
This course is outstanding for people willing to learn independently — watch videos, experiment, practice, and improve at their own pace.
But what about those who want or need an expert—someone who does the job well and knows how to teach exceedingly well—to guide them along the way?
What about those storytellers and would-be storytellers who need a Troy?
That is why I am launching the first semester of the Storyworthy Mastermind — an opportunity for a dozen people to spend six months learning to tell stories alongside someone who does it well and knows how to teach it well — me.
By joining my Storyworthy Mastermind, you will receive more than 20 hours of group and individual instruction, weekly video and email updates and lessons, an invitation to a community of like-minded people to help you along the way, my brand-new Storyworthy for Business course (which will serve as our curriculum), and a one-year membership into Storyworthy’s VIP program, giving you access to every course I have and will produce.
If you’re looking for a more guided approach to learning to tell stories — complete with individualized instruction and constant feedback — this Mastermind may be for you.
Registration opens soon.
