Let’s be honest:
If you’re softening your message so everyone likes you... you’re not leading.
You’re performing.
And I get it. It’s human to want approval.
➛ But here’s the truth: You can’t inspire change while trying to keep everyone comfortable.
That’s why today’s episode — Part 3 of The Speaker’s Code — is all about one of the most overlooked (and most magnetic) elements of powerful speaking: CONVICTION.
Great speakers don’t perform to be liked.
➛ They speak from conviction to serve.
Inside this episode, you’ll learn:
🔥 Why most speakers dilute their message (and how to stop)
🎯 Why belief transfer matters more than an information dump
👏 How to speak from a place of knowing — not proving
🧭 Why your inner work shapes your external impact (yes, people can feel it)
And I’ll also give you a simple challenge to help you clarify and own your core conviction — so you can build your next talk around it.
Here’s the deal: your audience doesn’t need more noise.
They need a voice they can trust.
And when you speak with clarity and conviction, you become that voice.
