About the Author

Growing up on a farm in Ireland, Claire Taylor discovered that her family had bought into the myth of perfection. As a result she became adept at keeping up appearances and was propelled into a successful career in marketing and brand development. But she craved authenticity and eventually found her calling as a storyteller. She is now a writer, business consultant and co-founder of The Story Mill, an organisation that encourages businesses to engage in real conversations using the art of storytelling. In The Tao of Storytelling she shares her story for the first time.
