Denise is also founder and co-producer of “Women Tell by the Decades” with Jen Munro. Currently Denise is producing two shows. A trilogy “Legacy of A Wealthy Slave” … taken from a New York Times obituary of her great- great grandfather. The second is “U.S.A. Ubuntu Storytellers and Allies,” a show with multicultural artists sharing their journey to and understanding of allyship! www.ubuntustorytellers.com and www.denisekeyestells.com

Each story we tell shapes how we see ourselves and how others see us. And yet there are some stories that have more potential in showing who we are and what we stand for. Stories in that sense are like stars in the night sky: every constellation has a couple of the brightest stars that play the key role in defining the shape of the constellation. In this series of webinars you will discover 4 core stories that can help you show yourself and others around you who you are, what you stand for, and why you do the things you do. Apart from theory on these stories there will be practice in break out sessions so get your microphone and headphones ready!

Every person carries within them a story that defines who they are, what they stand for, and the impact they want to leave behind. Legacy is not just what you leave after your lifetime—it is how you choose to live each day with purpose and meaning. In this interactive one-hour workshop, participants will learn how to use storytelling as a powerful tool to uncover, shape, and share their legacy. Through guided reflection, practical exercises, and group sharing, participants will explore the defining moments of their lives and translate them into stories that inspire and influence others.
