Someone sent me a video about a man who was originally poorly educated but he worked so hard that his English is amazing. I told this friend who sent me the video that I know the man because I watched his previous videos. I said "His stories are encouraging and inspiring".

The intended meaning is "His stories about working so hard to speak fluent English are encouraging and inspiring".

Is my italic sentence natural?

I take it the man told more than one story in the video, right?
