It's another bonus episode of Let's Blow This Up and today, Charlie Krebs joins the podcast to talk about the launch and growth of his podcast known as Soft Skills: Strong Results. We dive into the strategy behind the show and how Charlie’s background shaped his approach to podcasting.

Charlie shares how his experience in theater, TEDx speaking, and higher education helped him become a confident host. His ability to carry conversations with purpose makes each episode more engaging for his audience.

Throughout this conversation, Charlie and I explore why soft skills are more than a buzzword. Charlie breaks down the difference between interpersonal and cognitive soft skills and how both are essential in professional and personal life.

We also touch on simple, powerful ways to build connection --- like learning someone’s name and showing genuine interest. It’s not about being flashy; it’s about being human.

Charlie also gives his thoughts on how it's been to work with me to build his podcast!

Key Takeaways:

• A strong podcast starts with a clear strategy, not just a microphone.
