I was deeply moved listening to my niece speak not because of charisma or polish, but because of who she is to me. It reminded me that influence isn’t about having the perfect words or a powerful delivery. It’s about relationship. In this episode, I talk about quiet honesty, soft courage, and the way our words land differently simply because we’re the ones saying them. You don’t need a mic drop moment. You just need to show up honestly for the people who love you.
