"Jason's approach is both neatly structured and allows for almost limitless freedom. His coaching style is incredibly personal, and one feels as if they leave every session with not only a deeper understanding of their story but a deepened friendship, as well."
— Courtenay Cholovich
“Cast Iron helped me overcome some creative plateaus and feel confident with public speaking. I can hear myself communicating and have the tools for improving that communication.”

Meet Your Storytelling Coach
It's great to meet you! I'm Jason Tinney, and I've put decades of professional writing, acting, and storytelling experience into my Cast Iron Storytelling method.
A bit of context... Despite acting in 50+ stage productions, I was always shy around people until I became a guide for Chattanooga Ghost Tours, Inc. Telling people stories face-to-face on the streets of Chattanooga every night literally opened my eyes to the power of storytelling up close.
And now, I've developed an engaging curriculum for adults and youth! The workshops are about more than talking, they're about engaging. I guide you step by step on how to communicate in meaningful ways that resonate.
I personally lead each group and 1:1 coaching session to help you tap into your stories and shape how you'll share them. We'll have a lot of interaction and fun as I help you dig into the details that connect with your audience.
Bring storytelling into your life to make meaningful connections that last. In-depth mentorship from the guy with decades of experience in writing, acting, and storytelling…and walking backwards in cowboy boots without skipping a single detail.
Kim Mardis, co-owner of Love Eros, shares her Cast Iron Storytelling experience.
