Episode 9: "Oh the Stories We Tell Ourselves! - with Chris Templeton and Host, Althea Walters

We all tell stories every day... we love a good story.  They are everywhere to be found; chatting with our friends, at the movies, on the news and so much more.

Amazingly, the stories we tell ourselves throughout our days are the ones that have the greatest impact on how we live our lives.

Chris Templeton is the founder of Oh The Stories We Tell. His goal is simple: to provide you with three questions and a model to create more meaning and happiness in your life. With your family, friends, work and most importantly yourself.  This is not therapy or a belief system, but a tool to help you enhance and clarify what is most important to you.
