In this episode of BizBlend with host Sana, we explore how storytelling can transform communication from forgettable to unforgettable. Guest Ivan Wanis Ruiz, founder of Public Speaking Lab, shares his journey from repeated career failures in finance, sales, and accounting to discovering his true superpower: making stories stick. From working as a background extra in movies to speaking in boardrooms, FIFA stadiums, and Olympic stages, Ivan has seen firsthand that what makes communication memorable isn’t facts or slides—it’s the problems, struggles, and human stories behind them.

If you’ve ever wondered why your presentations fall flat, why your ideas don’t land, or how to capture attention in today’s short-form world, this conversation will give you practical and eye-opening insights.

Key Takeaways
  • Failure often reveals your true path—success alone doesn’t teach storytelling.

  • “The fear of the unknown is greater than the fear of being unhappy”—why people stay stuck in jobs or relationships.

  • Good stories focus on problems, not just solutions—the villain makes the story, not the hero.

  • Micro-moments on TikTok and Instagram haven’t killed storytelling, but they’ve raised the demand for capturing attention quickly.

  • Strong communication in business isn’t about knowledge—it’s about connection, engagement, and how you make others feel.

  • The best presentations aren’t monologues—they create moments where the audience talks and interacts.

  • Facts get respect, but stories get remembered.
