What if charisma isn’t about being magnetic... but about being real?

In this episode of Speaking With Confidence, I sit down with therapist, coach, and leadership expert Richard Reid to explore what truly makes someone a powerful communicator. Spoiler alert: it’s not about being the most dynamic speaker or the loudest voice in the room.

Richard unpacks the difference between charm and charisma and why one builds trust while the other often erodes it. We talk about how presence, authenticity, and curiosity form the foundation of effective communication skills, especially in today’s tech-saturated world.

We also dig into leadership communication, the power of storytelling techniques, and how younger professionals can build public speaking confidence without pretending to be someone they’re not. If you’ve ever wrestled with imposter syndrome, felt drained by Zoom meetings, or thought “I just don’t have that ‘it’ factor,” this one’s for you.

Here’s what we cover:

  • Why authentic charisma beats performative charm every time
  • The impact of technology on our presence and emotional regulation
  • The leadership advantage of storytelling and vulnerability
  • How to build connection by listening for emotions, not just facts
  • Why confidence in public speaking starts with owning your story
  • And Richard’s refreshingly practical advice for anyone looking to grow
