This episode of The Art of Entrepreneurship is for marketers who know real insights don’t come from slide decks; they come from honest conversations.

I share how to move past polished, “safe” answers and create the kind of conversations that actually change the trajectory of a project. It’s not about having a perfect list of questions; it’s about showing up as a human first. Setting the tone, leading with vulnerability and asking the right follow-ups can turn guarded responses into honest insight.

Tune in to learn how to disarm stakeholders, earn their trust, and uncover the truths that make your messaging—and your marketing—actually work.
