In this episode, Kacie talks with Emma Yarbrough, senior producer for Story Collider in Atlanta, about how personal storytelling can transform science communication. They explore how Story Collider finds and coaches both scientists and non-scientists to share their science stories on stage, building trust and community in the process. Emma shares insights about overcoming imposter syndrome, the evolutionary power of narrative, and why humanizing scientists is crucial in an era of polarization and misinformation. Through compelling live shows and their popular podcast, Story Collider is proving that everyone has a science story worth telling, and that these personal narratives might be exactly what we need to make science more accessible and trustworthy to all.
