Overview: To run monthly highly contagious event experiences which marry the best qualities of www.TED.com and www.TheMoth.org
MyStory will offer intimate, exclusive evenings held in inspirational, secret locations. Five carefully selected speakers will share personal stories.

The hope are for these stories to be beautiful, funny, engaging and ultimately impactful. Each evening will have a theme these stories will align to.
Attendees will be highly selected too, invite only, building a sense of honour, prestige, fun, community and excitement to participate. Drinks and finger food provided for free.

During the evening the stories will be recorded. Once edited these will be shared the following day, for free, to the public by way of podcasts and the website.

The event and their subsequent online podcasts will ultimately exist to support a 'charity of the year’ in both awareness and financial support. The charity for 2012/13 will be: www.harrisonsfund.com
At launch we will run monthly evening events. This could increase to fortnightly as momentum and infrastructure builds to a critical mass.
