She delves into the current “trust recession” and explores strategies to transform it into a trust ascension by mastering cognitive science and long-term relationship building.

They discuss the shift from Simon Sinek’s “It’s all about your why” to “It’s all about your who,” emphasizing the rising importance of personal branding and genuine human connections.
