We weren’t ready for the energy Precious L. Williams brought into this episode—and honestly, we needed it. From sales rooms to stages, she’s the kind of speaker who doesn’t just hold attention—she demands it.
Precious doesn’t play it safe—and that’s exactly why we wanted her on. She’s built her brand by saying what most people won’t, and in this episode, she’s dropping truth about what it really takes to stand out, whether you're in sales, pitching your business, or just trying to find your voice in a noisy room.
If you haven’t heard her speak before, get ready—she’s a pitch champion, lawyer, author, sales trainer, and full-blown wrecking ball (her words).
We dug into why younger professionals hesitate to show up in real life, how different generations respond in a room, and why your uniqueness isn’t a weakness—it’s your advantage. Precious had no problem calling out what’s holding people back (hint: it’s not talent), and offered real ways to bust through the fear and start owning your voice—whether you’re in a sales meeting or leading a team.
We also got into how the people around you can lift—or limit—you. If your circle isn't pushing you to level up, it might be time to shift it. Precious reminded us that the rooms you put yourself in matter, and so does the confidence you carry into them.
This one’s not about being polished—it’s about being real, prepared, and willing to take the mic, even when your knees are shaking. If you’re in business and want to actually connect with people (and close more deals), you’ll take something away from this conversation.
