Have you ever walked out of a meeting knowing you said something important—yet nobody remembered it the next day?

It’s not that people weren’t listening. It’s that your words didn’t carry weight.

In this episode, I share why we struggle to break through and what it really takes to be remembered. We’ll explore:

• Why polishing yourself into “perfection” makes you forgettable.
• How my own raw honesty during a life crisis created instant human connection.
• What happened when I carried one clear focus into every room as a leader.
• Why we’re living in a trust recession, and how AI makes this even more urgent.
• The paradox of “fuck you” energy and why embracing your quirks and scars gives you gravity.
• Why being more yourself at work doesn’t mean oversharing or chaos, but humanity, presence, and resonance.
• How reconnecting with your own story is the foundation for clarity, authority, and innovation.

If you’ve ever felt like you weren’t fully heard or remembered, this episode will help you see why, and what you can do about it.
