The Ally Show

In this episode, Jesse Marseille, host of Storytelling at Scale, shares his journey from feeling unfulfilled in the tech industry to finding purpose through storytelling. He discusses the power of stories and how they shape our lives. Jesse emphasizes the importance of following curiosity and finding mentors who align with our values. He also opens up about his personal struggle with a chronic illness and how it led him to prioritize his own happiness and self-worth. In this conversation, Jesse and Ali discuss the difference between being nice and being kind. They explore the paradigm of being nice in the workforce and the rewards that come with it, compared to being kind and the impact it has on oneself and others.
