Welcome to Atlanta Storytellers!

In this episode, we sit down with Samuel Frenkel, a storyteller whose love for story began long before he ever stepped onto a stage. His journey has been shaped by family traditions, inherited tales, and the quiet magic of listening.

From sitting on his grandfather’s lap, hearing beloved childhood stories to late-night conversations with his grandmother about her life and history, Samuel discovered early that storytelling isn’t just about words, it’s about connection across generations, cultures, and experiences. Today, that same passion draws him into Atlanta’s storytelling community, where he continues to share, listen, and build meaningful bonds through story.

Watch this episode to hear how Samuel’s journey reveals the power of vulnerability, the courage it takes to share honestly, and why storytelling might be less of a leap than we think, and more like a step taken together.
