Ken – Storied Success
Ken Lacy is the founder of Storiedsuccess.com, an online forum where people can
come and listen to other people’s success stories.
Having attended many events involving experienced and accomplished speakers, Ken
noted that almost all had personal stories to tell. But, how about those of us
who have a story to tell and no far reaching platform from which to speak? What
better forum than the Internet?
That’s how Storiedsuccess.com was born! And now, thousands of viewers come to
StoriedSuccess.com to listen to our success stories.
Stories have always been important to us. From the earliest rudimentary drawings
made deep in caves, stories are how we, as people, communicate with one another.
Stories are told for a number of reasons: to impart information, to illustrate a
point, to teach, to convey humor, create fear, etc. We all like hearing stories.
Especially, stories about success.
Storied Success conducts interviews of interesting and successful people and
posts their success stories for you to listen to. We're all seeking something.
That's part of being alive. As long as we're alive and active, we are moving
towards something.
We welcome you to listen to the success stories on our website. Most are
informative, some are funny and many are inspiring. You will find the people we
interview to be mostly professionals from all walks of life and from around the
country. They include authors, professors, health care professionals, people
engaged in athletic pursuits, entrepreneurs, and many others.

outdoor activities and especially loves getting together each year in August at
their place on the Outer Banks in NC.
