Episode Summary In this episode of Resilient Woman Leadership, I sit down with Liz Hodge to discuss the power of voice, energy, and connection in leadership and public speaking. We explore how women can embrace their “dragon power” and use their voices to command attention, build connection, and create curiosity—whether on stage, in meetings, or in daily conversations.

Liz shares her journey of shifting from information-heavy presentations to heart-centered storytelling that truly engages audiences. We discuss the energetic exchange that happens when speaking and how tapping into your heart space can transform the way you communicate.

As women in leadership—especially in male-dominated spaces—learning to ground ourselves, speak with clarity, and embrace our unique presence is key to making an impact. If you've ever struggled with being heard, felt like you had to "prove" yourself in conversations, or want to refine your speaking skills, this episode is for you!
