# The First Chapter with Alex Hyat

> A 30-minute intro call to hear what you’re building and begin finding the story only you can tell. We’ll talk about who you help, what you want this season to change, and whether The Story Season is the right fit. You’ll leave with at least one story idea either way. Bring your Instagram handle and a sense of what you’d love to be known for.
