Episode description and notes
Jon Symes SPEAKER | CREATOR OF NARRATIVE LEADERSHIP | TRUTH-TELLER I'm the creator of Narrative Leadership — a body of work built on one idea: most people are trying to fix behaviour, when the real lever is the story underneath it. Once someone can see the story they're inside, they're no longer trapped by it. For over 20 years I've worked with leaders, men in midlife, and people in transition to uncover the invisible narratives shaping how they think, lead, relate and live — the stories about success, masculinity, identity and control that quietly drive performance, and quietly create disconnection. This is the work I call Narrative Liberation, and it's for anyone carrying a story they didn't choose — though I've seen it land with particular force for men. It shows up equally in: - a man who feels flat despite "doing everything right" - a leader whose team isn't aligned despite a clear strategy - a culture operating inside assumptions no one has questioned My new book, The Stories That Are Killing Us, goes deeper into exactly this. I'm not a hype guest. My goal is to have your listeners say: "That's exactly what I've been feeling — but I've never heard it explained like that." I'll work with you to create an episode that is: - Insight-rich (clear frameworks people can apply immediately) - Honest and human (no performance, no posturing) - Sticky (listeners keep thinking about it — and sharing it — afterwards) If you want an episode that cuts through the noise and actually shifts how your audience sees their life or leadership, I'm a strong fit.
