When your communication is confusing or artificial, customers don’t care, sales don’t close, and presentations bore everyone to sleep. 

It doesn’t have to be that way. 

Through intentional storytelling, your customers will engage, sales will grow, and you'll become unforgettable. 

Some important questions never get asked: What do you have in common with Arnold Schwarzenegger, Javier Bardem, and the octopus? What’s the best thing about vegans? Do parents have favourites? How do you stop a wolf fight? And why do some people prefer longer colonoscopies?

The answers, believe it or not, will make you a better public speaker - whether you’ve been too afraid to talk in front of an audience, or have been doing it for years.

You’ll learn, you’ll laugh, you might cry - but after reading this book, your public speaking will never be the same.

When I was 12, a teacher asked me to tell a story in front of the whole class, and I said yes. When I was 20, I got offered a job that involved speaking in front of sullen teenagers, and I said yes. Throughout the years that followed, I said yes to every chance to tell my stories in front of an audience, and even became a National Champion of public speaking. But when friends suggested I should do it professionally, I always said “maybe one day.” 

When a series of unexpected events turned my life upside down, a good friend asked me that same question again and, this time, I finally said yes. I’m very glad I did. 

When I'm not speaking, you can find me in Barcelona with my wife Patrícia, my daughters Alice and Olivia, and our cat Parsley.
