Ep 215 Own Your Story with Jason Thompson

Welcome to another episode of the Dr. Wells Podcast, where we delve deep into the realms of health, performance, and the science of thriving in a bustling world.

In this week's episode, we have a conversation with Jason Thompson, a maestro in the art of strategic storytelling. Jason's journey began three decades ago, in a room filled with 400 engineers, where a small wardrobe malfunction turned into a powerful lesson on the significance of emotional connections. Yes, you heard it right! A zipper mishap became the cornerstone of a philosophy that emphasizes owning your story and leveraging it to forge meaningful connections.

Fast forward to today, Jason is focused on the transformative power of storytelling. With a rich history of collaborations with industry giants like Disney, Warner Brothers, and Electronic Arts, Jason has honed his craft to a fine art. His expertise doesn't just stop at storytelling; it extends to helping organizations optimize their strategies, thereby boosting profits and optimizing positive impact.

Jason's approach to storytelling is not just about narrating tales; it's about innovative frameworks, developed from years of experience in diverse industries including film, television, and advertising. His ultimate goal is to empower individuals and organizations to build confidence, clarity, and conviction.

As we chat with Jason, we will explore the depths of strategic storytelling and uncover the secrets to making an emotional connection that can catalyze success in both personal and professional spheres. And remember, just like Jason checks his zipper before every keynote speech, it's the little habits and checks that can pave the way for grand successes.
