TELL YOUR STORY with Alyonka Larionov
Storytelling Podcasts
After ten years working as a host, broadcaster, and producer in the male-dominated TV + Media Industry, Alyonka Larionov woke up to a shell of her former self. Steeped in her belief of not being good enough, her workaholic tendencies left her unbalanced in all aspects of her life. She was stripped of her family + friends, her femininity, her authenticity and her voice. So she embarked on a journey to find herself. In an attempt to reconnect with the women in her life, she launched The Untitled Female Project, an online open forum where women can explore the essential and universal questions of gender, identity, and the human condition. However, what she discovered soon after launching the project was just how deeply these questions affected all people--not just women. Through the TELL YOUR STORY Podcast, Alyonka encourages her guests to #TellYourStory, #SpeakYourTruth, and #ChampionFlaws. Through these intimate, unfiltered conversations, she hopes to uncover her guests' experiences, successes, and failures that will encourage others to live their own authentic lives, and to create awareness that there is a lesson in every story.
