About #StoryBoss™
#StoryBoss™ is a 4-week online storytelling experience with Whole Story founder, Michelle Mush Lee. Are you embarking on important changes in your career and personal life? Are you ready to step out of an old story that you’ve outgrown, can’t understand or realize no longer fits? If you’re quietly answering yes to these questions, know that this course was created FOR YOU.
No matter your journey or level of experience as a leader, if you’re ready to re-frame an empowered story of new beginnings, healthy relationships, affirming habits and beliefs to propel you forward, you’ve found the right place. I’m so happy we found each other!
Welcome here, friend!
What story are you ready to let go of?
Are you ready to do it together?
“A boss is anyone who uses what they’ve been blessed with to bless others.”
What QuestionS No longer serve you?
The questions you ask yourself today have the power to shape your beliefs tomorrow. What limiting beliefs are hidden in the questions you ask yourself? Who would you be without them?

By the end of the course, you’ll:
√ Discover your unique story.
I’ll work with you to identify the most important moments in your life and work with you to construct a narrative that sets you up to pursue your dream job and life!
√ Rewrite limiting beliefs.
I’ll let you in on the most common beliefs that hold leaders back from asking for that salary raise, choosing the right relationship and creating a strategy for growth and transformation.
√ Learn my secret sauce to powerful public speaking.
I’ll give you tips and tricks on how I’ve been able to make lasting connections no matter my audience, small or large, young or old. You’ll also get a copy of #StoryBoss’ proven framework for powerful storytelling that gives you a step-by-step outline for building out your next board presentation and wedding speech.
√ Create your perfect leadership story.
I’ll help you script a perfect leadership story that can be used in your next pitch, keynote, network event or even on your next date! (Also, we strongly advise that you not give a pitch during a date.)
√ Define your brand story.
For aspiring and just-starting entrepreneurs, we’ll identify 2-3 of your brand’s stickiest concepts and traits to set you up for an incredible launch!
√ Grow your relationships.
Through weekly story challenges, you’ll practice how to effectively choose the right stories to build trust and authentic connections with the people in your life.
√ Become the best freaking storyteller you know!
(Unless you’re related to Lauryn Hill, Morgan Freeman or Harrison Ford. They totes win every story battle ever!)
Modules are Interactive & include story worksheets and prompts you can cut and paste into your own writing!
Where will your new story take you?
Every story matters.
But not all stories can celebrate where you’ve been while creating a vision for your future. #StoryBoss’ methodology is designed to help you take the experiences of your life and build it into a powerful story that only you can tell.
Is #StoryBoss™ for me?
You’re probably asking yourself if you should even call yourself a “leader.” Or maybe, you’re more like me and question-chanting Lizzo while reading this like…..
[Preferred term of endearment], I just took a DNA Test and I’m 100% NOT that leader!
Fine. But first, take a look at these #StoryBoss leader archetypes. Are you somewhere in there?
The Brave Heart
Brave Heart, you’re a young, mighty leader.
You’re 1-3 years into your career. Maybe you’re an emergent entrepreneur. Your career reflects the changes you want to see in the world. You’ve developed a vision to land your dream job. The only problem is…. you need help talking about your impact with the world in a way that’s simple, inspires and speaks to the Big Picture! You value process and ways of communicating that honor your natural-born gifts and swag. Very important.
Your Affirmation: I am worthy. I am enough in every moment to ask important questions of myself and those I care about. I am committed to creating my unique story as a leader.
The North Star
North Star, you’re a bright light to so many.
You’re 5-7 years into your career. You started from the bottom now YOU’RE HERE!! (Thanks, Drake.)
Maybe you’re a gifted visionary stewarding a dynamic team of organizational leaders. You understand what it feels like to wear every hat that’s ever been stitched and worn in the history of hats that’ve been stitched and worn. You value candor and clarity. Influenced by your mentors, your leadership style is one that thrives from working and thinking outside-of-the-box. You’re also completely at capacity! You need a supportive community or coach to help refocus, so you can keep leading your rockstar team without burning out.
Your Affirmation: I am growth. I am trust. I am support and I am supported. I love myself to keep reaching, to continue stretching towards new horizons.
The Way Maker
Way Maker, you’re a leader with a gift for paving new paths
You’re 7-10 years into your career. You’ve created unique services and programs. You’ve innovated systems that your team and partners have come to know and appreciate you for. Younger leaders ask you for career advice and to mentor them—you know the work inside and out! The only problem is…. you’re not sure how to synthesize this important knowledge. You feel alone in your work at times because… you’re literally creating it as you go! Naturally, you need a trusted person in your corner who can help you slow down and reflect; who can help connect the dots in your story as you look ahead.
Your Affirmation: I am the story never read to me.
The Phoenix
Phoenix, you’re embarking on tremendous change.
You’re a new parent. You’re a career-shifter. You’re a soon-to-be-entrepreneur trying to figure out the right format for your gift. Or maybe you’re a mid-career-crisis-haver and can’t imagine your next great move. Every decision feels like it’s going to make or break your life! It doesn’t help that you’ve always been amazing at figuring things out but right now you feel stuck.
Your Affirmation: I am letting go. I connect, heal and stand in the stories of my past to create the life of my dreams.
(P.S. I want to share everything I’ve learned about the power of narrative and how I use it to become a mother who surrenders, a business woman who values her worth and a divorcee who’s creating healthier relationships with everyone I love.)
The Alchemist
Alchemist, you build bridges between worlds.
You’re a writer, a consultant, a journalist, a teaching artist, a creative director, a chef / restaurant owner, a gallery curator, a rare leader who serves diverse, complex communities. You’re seeking human-centered models of leadership and professional kinship.
Your Affirmation: I lead with love. I lift up stories that remind the world of our humanity.
So, Are you ready to get YOUR story on?
If you’re still not sure, remember these sage words from the one and only Queen Bey:
“I don’t like to gamble, but if there’s one thing I’m willing to bet on, it’s myself.”
Ready to bet on you?
