The Mic-Drop Power of Storytelling: Lessons from PR Queen Corine La Font
Ever notice how the stories we don’t tell—our silences, our hesitations, our shrinking—speak louder than the ones we share? In this episode of Communication Queen, Kimberly Spencer sits down with powerhouse PR consultant and storyteller, Corine La Font, for a conversation that will shake you out of hiding and catapult you into unapologetic visibility.
Corine doesn’t just talk about PR strategy—she embodies it. From breaking free of cultural narratives that told her to “play small” to building an international career amplifying other voices, Corine’s journey is a masterclass in reclaiming your power through storytelling.
Together, Kimberly and Corine dive into:
- The transformational shift that happens when you stop seeking permission and start owning your narrative.
- Why being loud, proud, and radically visible isn’t just marketing—it’s leadership.
- The exact mindset flips that will take you from “Who am I to share this?” to “Who am I not to?”
If you’ve ever doubted your voice, felt the urge to shrink back, or wrestled with imposter syndrome, this episode will be your mirror, your megaphone, and your marching orders. Because here’s the truth: your story isn’t just a marketing tool—it’s the strategy that will set you free.
