The Naked Librarian
The Naked Librarian explores a powerful idea from narrative psychology: the stories you tell about your life shape who you become.
Each week, Victoria sits down with Moth performers, memoirists, and everyday people to ask: What did you learn about yourself by telling this story?

Hey, I'm Victoria
For the last 20 years, I've helped people tell true stories about their lives, through college courses, guided autobiography workshops, and live storytelling events. Each story is different but one thing is always true: remembering and retelling our experiences helps us develop greater self-awareness and find meaning. And because—wait for it—I believe telling your story and hearing other people's true tales can change the world.
If you love The Moth, Modern Love, or this American Life, you already love great stories. The Naked Librarian goes one step further: exploring why telling them matters.
