Why Your Brain Loves Stories & Narratives

Whether it’s a child listening wide-eyed to a bedtime tale, a team inspired by a leader’s vision, or you reflecting on your own journey, stories are more than words. They’re bridges between minds.

So the next time you’re moved by a book, a movie, or even a personal anecdote, remember: it’s not just imagination. Your brain is telling you, “This matters. Pay attention. Learn from this.”

In the end, we don’t just love stories. We are stories - living, unfolding, and always in the making.
