"Can I Really Do This?"
I’m sitting here listening to the rain from Tropical Storm Ophelia drumming on the leaves of the big maple tree outside my window, and working on my slides for this Thursday’s first Clickable Content Workshop.
(I love a rainy day from time to time. How about you?)
Anyhoo…yes, the Clickable Content Workshop will be kicking off on Thursday with a key skill: the 5-Sentence Story structure that you can use over and over to write story-based emails quickly…and on any topic. (Yes, you!)
But I know you have more questions about the workshop, so I've put together a new FAQ for you, including questions like
“Can I really tell a story in 5-sentences?”,
“No, I mean, me, can I?”,
“Will you help me find stories for my niche?”,
“How soon will I have something to show for this?” and
“How will I know if it’s working?”
So click on over and take a look at the answers, now.
If you’re an entrepreneur who wants to get paid, you really do need to spend some time learning about how the human brain works: and the human brain is primed for story. Stories are how we understand ourselves and the world around us...and the good news is: this is a learnable skill.
Check out the FAQ, then register for the Clickable Content Workshop
Let’s begin,
Julie
P. S. If you haven’t watched my story about what happened when I decided to write an email a week for a year (and the three types of stories I came to rely on) you can do that here. And then, sign up for the workshop, to learn how you can make this happen for you, with the least amount of angst and stress possible.

I scared some of you, last week, with my predictions about how AI will make reading email even less interesting than it is today, so today I wanted to share the good news. You can write in an engaging way, with a few simple pointers (that you won’t get from AI). Here’s an example from one of my students, proving that humans are better than AI at writing. Jo's Email Jo and her husband Derek teach people how to work with their horses so that everybody is having a good time – rider and horse ( a...
If you’ve watched any of the Democratic National Convention here in the US this week, I hope you noticed something: It was alive with stories. Logic says we should vote for our leaders based on their policies. But the only thing that moves people to act is emotion. The speakers did not share a lot of specific policy proposals about reproductive healthcare, LGBTQIA+ rights, wages or the economy. Instead we heard stories: Tim and Gwen Walz waiting for the phone call that would tell them if...
Here’s what just happened at the Olympic Games in Paris: 19 days of competition 329 events 10,500+ athletes 37 new world records But what do you actually remember? Simone Biles overcoming the ‘twisties’, coming back stronger than ever, then dropping to one knee to salute the teammate who beat her to the gold. Steve “Clark Kent” Nedoroscik soling the Rubik’s cube then taking off his glasses and executing a near-perfect pommel horse routine. Tom Daly crocheting medal holders for his fellow...
