What does transformation in storytelling mean?

Transformation comes through the hero’s inner journey — it’s what’s going on inside the hero — it’s going from living in fear to living courageously.

How does transformation happen to the storyteller?

The transformation happens to the hero when they are vulnerable enough to face their fears — when you’re willing to dig into your own fears when telling a story — you’re going to be forced to change along with the hero.

Why is the question “why?” so important in storytelling?

Fear is rooted in the belief system — beliefs are always logical but they’re never true.
