🌴178. Ownership isn’t a job title, it’s a choice
This one is straight from the Work Fame Substack — and it’s a story I didn’t expect to write when I started typing. I thought I was going to talk about how podcasting has helped my career… but then this angle took over, and I ran with it.
So today, I’m sharing:
🧠How a $107 microphone completely shifted how people perceived me
đź’Ą Why first impressions are less about what you say and more about how you signal your value
🎤 The surprising science behind audio quality and credibility (yes, there's data!)
💡 What subtle behaviors on Zoom are saying about you — without you realising it
đź’Ś And a simple trick that can help you (or your team) stand out immediately
I also talk about “The Fluency Effect” — and why sounding clear and confident matters even more than you think.
If you love geeking out on psychology, signaling, and simple changes that make a big impact on your visibility and influence, this one’s for you.
