If you’ve ever felt lost after a setback or unsure how to pivot into your next big chapter, this one’s for you. I’m sitting down with Steve Herz—talent agent, career coach, author, and a master at reinvention—to talk about how getting rejected from a dream job led him to build one of the most successful careers in media and personal development. From taking the calls no one else wanted, to turning soft skills into leadership superpowers, Steve breaks down the communication tools that actually move the needle (hint: it’s not your résumé). This episode is a masterclass in turning “no” into your greatest opportunity—and creating a life and career on your terms.

In This Episode You Will Learn

  • Rejection can redirect you toward your most aligned success path.

  • Soft skills matter more than technical skills for advancement.

  • Build influence through authority, warmth, and energy (AWE).

  • Confidence grows when you take uncomfortable but strategic action.

  • Culture transformation starts with effective private communication.

  • Don’t wait—reinvent, reach out, and create new opportunities.
