WHY I WROTE THIS BOOK
Did you know?
- Most fear of failure comes from not knowing who we are and who our audience is.
- 76% of the human population suffers from glossophobia – the fear of public speaking.
- Chemicals like cortisol, dopamine, and oxytocin are released in the brain when we’re told a story.
I wrote Speak Up! Tell Your Story to Influence Others to lead you in your journey of self-awareness and help you engage with those who really matter to you.
With this Multicultural approach to storytelling, you are guided to discover your best values, character traits, cultural attributes, and leadership skills to craft the stories that matter to you and make you UNIQUE.
Why Now
As the driving force behind this endeavor, I am a passionate advocate for self-discovery and authentic storytelling. A multicultural marketing communications coach and award-winning communications expert, my journey is marked by a commitment to amplifying underrepresented voices.
Having faced and conquered the challenges of being a woman, immigrant, and Latina in the business world, I bring over two decades of experience to empower individuals like you.
DEI Advocate
We live in a time when the demands for people’s attention are such that a great storyteller will always stand out and have a much better chance to exert influence than individuals who are not able to deliver a good story. I highly recommend the book to anyone looking to grow professionally or take their business to the next level.

A truly refreshing, accessible, and inspiring book for all of us on how to tell our story. Susana Baumann’s authenticity and transparency in telling her own story and that of others, combined with her lively and thought-provoking illustration of well-known movies to underline how to structure a narrative, makes this book a compelling read.

When I first attended Susana’s workshop, I immediately stopped masking characteristics about myself I historically saw as flaws. Her workshop is an incredible opportunity to see the value our uniqueness brings to our careers and businesses. It is such a treat for this workshop to be available in a book for all to enjoy!
