Welcome to Atlanta Storytellers!
Episode 11: Charles Parrott!
Charles Parrott is a professor, performer, and lifelong lover of stories. In this wide-ranging conversation, he shares how storytelling became his lens for understanding the world, and why he believes it’s a fundamental part of being human.
Whether coaching students in the KSU Tellers program at Kennesaw State University or standing under the spotlight himself, Charlie sees storytelling as more than performance. It’s a practice of reflection, a pathway to connection, and a way to embrace who we are and where we’ve been. He reminds us that the best stories don’t require fame or fanfare; they come from the honest moments we’ve lived.
If you’ve ever wondered whether your story matters, this episode is a warm and wholehearted reminder that it does!
