In this inaugural episode, I introduce the mission behind Empathetic Presence: creating a world where all voices are heard, especially those that have been systematically silenced.


What You'll Learn:

  • Why "executive presence" needs to be rejected in favor of authentic, empathetic leadership
  • How overthinking and people-pleasing disconnect us from our natural communication abilities
  • Why empathy combined with expertise makes you an unstoppable leader

I believe we don't need to "find our voices" - they're already ours. What we need are cultures where we feel safe enough to use them. When you're comfortable, your confidence naturally emerges. When you're anxious about how you're being perceived, your attention splinters and your voice suffers.

Throughout this podcast journey, I'll share practical tools to help you speak up even when afraid, and I'll interview empathetic experts who are creating cultures where everyone can be heard.

Remember: Your voice matters. Your empathy is your strength. And together, we can create the leadership our world desperately needs right now.
