Your Daily Dose of Storytelling for Aug 10, 2024

**Ever felt like your audience tunes out halfway through your story?**

What if you could keep them engaged from start to finish?

**Here’s a tip**: *Add a dash of humor.* Humor not only lightens the mood but also makes your story more relatable and memorable. Studies show that humor activates the brain’s dopamine reward system, enhancing learning and retention.

**Try this storytelling hack**: Next time you’re sharing a story, sprinkle in a light-hearted joke or a funny anecdote. Instead of saying, “Our team had a challenging week,” try, “Our week was so challenging, even our coffee machine needed a break!” This touch of humor keeps your audience engaged and makes your message more enjoyable.

**Your action step**: Think about an upcoming presentation or conversation. Identify a spot where you can add a humorous element. Observe how it transforms the dynamics and captures your audience’s attention.
