Storytelling That Disrupts, Influences, and Demands Attention
How do you craft a founder story that cuts through noise and drives real growth?
Every founder has a story—but most are forgettable. In this episode, I sit down with storytelling coach and creative director Jeff Abracen, who has mastered the art of transforming messy origin stories into powerful growth tools.
We dive into the DNA of disruptive storytelling—how to stand out, capture attention, and convert conversations into clients.
Jeff shares how pattern-breaking stories create influence, why vulnerability (done right) builds authority, and the biggest mistake founders make that kills their message.
If you’ve ever wondered how to make your story resonate, stop the scroll, and actually drive business, this episode is your playbook.
Jeff Abracen is a disruptive storytelling expert, speaker and podcast host.
