Transforming Change Into Experiences with Breeda Miller


 
In this episode of Career Can Do, Mary Ann Faremouth chats with Breeda Miller. Breeda is an author, trainer and playwright, and CEO of Breeda Miller Speaking, where she uses the power of story to reach, teach, and provide a memorable framework for lasting change. She has used her professional experience serving clients in many industries, including healthcare, academic institutions, and nonprofit communities. She shares how we can take life’s numerous changes and transform them into meaningful experiences that help others.
 

 
Breeda came to understand the value of self-care when she cared for her mother for nearly six years. Through that experience, she learned profound life lessons that she was able to translate into impactful and humorous stories. She dedicated herself to becoming a professional storyteller, but just when she was in the thick of it, the pandemic hit. Despite the setback of no speaking events and things not being quite the same in Zoom, Breeda rose to the challenge and wrote a one-woman show under the advice of a storytelling coach.
 
“We can find ways to connect our humanity; to share these experiences and then turn them into really powerful opportunities,” Breeda remarks. “We’ve felt so isolated for so long and [Mrs. Kelly’s Journey Home] is a way to feel connection.” She talks about her method for maintaining focus. “I thought to myself: if I knew I couldn’t fail, what would I do?”
