In this episode, Steve Harper and Michelle Cutler, a storytelling coach and screenwriter, dive into the overlooked power of travel narratives. They explore how sharing more than just “current situation” photos can deepen connection, expand your online presence, and reflect personal growth. Cutler offers practical strategies—from using sensory detail to naming emotional stakes—that elevate everyday posts into engaging, resonant stories. She draws on her own experiences living abroad, coaching writers, and navigating cultural difference to illustrate how what we bring to a place is just as vital as what we take from it. The conversation also touches on resume writing, SEO, and the ethical use of AI in storytelling.
