Synopsis

Burnout is not your destiny.

What if the stories you're telling yourself are holding you back? Or worse.

In The Story Code™, journalist and mindset strategist Mark Jones introduces the storytelling mindset as a powerful and proven way for leaders to rethink, reframe and rewrite the internal narratives driving their behaviour.

More than the economy, AI, or even burnout itself, Mark knows the stories we tell ourselves can make or break us. He shares his own spiral into burnout and depression, and how re-engineering the corporate storytelling tools he'd mastered over decades led to his recovery and new energy as a father, motivational speaker and mindset strategist for leaders.

Inside, you'll discover the seven character archetypes most leaders play, and learn to:

• Challenge your inner critic and decode limiting beliefs
• Overwrite your old archetype with a new lead character and script
• Decide your ideal life narrative and destiny story
• Encode habits with neuro-informed ways to sustain resilience and purpose

Ready for a new injection of energy and direction in your life and career? The next chapter in your life may be the best yet.
