Testimonials
Damien Vérot, Director of CSR and Prevention at Mutuelle des Motards, alongside Oscar Alber and Virgile Masson-Mauny, during the presentation of their story at the 2025 What A Trip Festival.
“StoryJam helped structure and strengthen the story of Oscar and Virgile’s 10,000-kilometer cycling journey around the Baltic Sea, undertaken as part of their research project on the transition to more sustainable mobility. The goal was to raise public awareness—through a story that was surprising, accessible, and technically informed—of the safety, health, and environmental issues shared by all two-wheeled road users.”
Cece’s coaching was invaluable in bringing their presentations to life, blending humor, suspense, and human connection while preserving the credibility and technical substance of their research. The presentations were a great success.
“Thank you again for your support.”
Vincent Ramos-Filaire, teacher at Collège Fontcarrade and academic trainer at University Paul Valéry, a storyteller featured by StoryJam in multimple shows (June 2023, March 2025 and June 2026).
“StoryJam is not simply a platform for telling a personal story in public; it is also, and above all, an intensive process of working with a storytelling professional. Thanks to Cece, our story came to transcend the merely anecdotal—without losing its authenticity—and gained a human, even universal, dimension. Telling your story in front of an audience then becomes an experience of sharing and connecting with others. You do not tell your story simply for the sake of telling it, but to bring it to life for the audience and, in turn, be enriched by their reactions and emotions.”
Simon Cossus-Bay, Managing Director of Enercoop Languedoc-Roussillon, listening to the story of one of the cooperative’s members during the company’s General Assembly event organised by StoryJam.
“We brought in Cece Helgesen to host our general assembly and create opportunities for members to share their experiences. We knew it would be lively and engaging, but we were surprised by the strength of the connections forged between our teams. A rare atmosphere of listening and engagement. True team building.”
Amandine Boutry, entrepreneur and founder of the Business Troc platform, who worked with StoryJam to develop a conference and her pitch.
“I felt a real sense of relief when it came to preparing my conference. Cece is incredibly effective at finding a compelling thread in your personal journey and turning it into a story. If you’re looking to develop a unique, personal, and moving speech to make your conference more powerful, trust StoryJam.”
Balilé Sogoyou, coach and change facilitator, whose story won first place in the Toastmasters International Competition (France), and second place in the European competition.
“An incredible experience with an incredible person! The power of storytelling lies in its ability to share a piece of your story with humor and unexpected twists. Thanks to Cece’s talent and support throughout this journey, I was able to find my voice. I can’t recommend it highly enough. And you don’t need to be an expert in anything. So go, go, go! It’s life-changing. Thank you to Cece and StoryJam for making this possible.”
