People are not just drawn to competence. They are drawn to how you make them feel. I have learned that true influence comes from balancing both.

In this conversation, I break down the dynamic between likability and competence and why mastering both changes how you show up in every room. I introduce the idea of the likable badass, someone who leads with confidence while staying grounded and relatable.

Because success is not just about being capable. It is about being trusted, respected, and remembered.
