Leah Stanistreet is a visual and audio storytelling superstar. She’s a photographer, podcast creator and audio producer.
Leah is an experienced audio engineer who spent a large portion of her career producing content for some of Australia’s largest radio networks including TripleM, Nova Entertainment, and 2DayFM.
Now she supports female business owners and entrepreneurs to feel confident about sharing their stories through visual and audio content.
It’s fair to say that Leah has been instrumental in getting me “unstuck” from starting a podcast, something that languished on my “to-do” list for many years.
In this conversation, Leah emphasises the importance of storytelling and shares practical tips for gaining confidence, leveraging one’s unique story, and the benefits of creating pros and cons lists for decision-making.
Highlights:
- The importance of taking a first step: Understanding that getting unstuck requires taking a step, even if it’s not the “right” step.
- Expectations created by big decisions: Leah explains how she became paralysed making big decisions about what path to take at the very beginning of her career.
- Pros and cons lists: Leah shares her love of a pros and cons list to help her think through working out how to make progress when she’s feeling stuck.
- Fear of “showing up”: Why people feel vulnerable showing up in images, video or audio to share their stories.
- Providing support and accountability: Leah’s process for supporting and holding people accountable to overcome the obstacles in the way of getting started with sharing their stories.
Join us as Leah talks about the importance of vulnerability in storytelling and provides insight into her process of helping clients overcome excuses and bring their authentic selves forward through brand photography and podcasting.
