Tellerian 

One who loves to share stories of all kinds in any format. Both the storyteller and the listener/receiver become Tellerians when a story is shared, creating neuro coupling . Neural coupling in storytelling refers to the phenomenon where a listener's brain activity mirrors that of the storyteller, leading to better understanding, empathy, and emotional connection.
