Maria: As you think about the story we want to pull in a bunch of moments in our life, but Tinu's moment when her classmate was killed. Make those two or three moments shine and give them the space because you only have 2 minutes. No one wants to hear us talk for an hour. The average person's attention span for a story is about 2 minutes.

A good question is "when did other people feel connected to your story" Usually it's specific shared experiences

Always ask for a reading volunteer so that everybody is on the same page

And being disciplined in the time keeping + constant communication

Internalize when you might use a story of us - a good story of us reinforces the values in our community and shows us evidence. Story of Us is the most important aspect of a narrative. Shows us who we are in hard moments.

Lean on your coach. If need be you/your coach can do an impromptu story of us.
