The podcast
100 Stories, from the Narrative Intelligence Project
Long-form conversations on the stories we live by and what it takes to change our relationship to them.
100 Stories is a public research and interview project exploring how the stories we inherit, absorb, construct, and repeat shape how we see ourselves, other people, and the world.
Across 100 conversations, Narrative Intelligence researcher Paige Williams is speaking with researchers, artists, leaders, therapists, educators, storytellers, culture makers, and people whose lived experiences reveal something important about identity, agency, meaning, and change.
What allows a person to recognize the story shaping their experience, question it, and live differently?
