The missing piece is rarely more knowledge — it’s connection.Story is what bridges the space between expert and audience. It humanizes ideas, creates emotional resonance, and allows insight to truly land. When expertise is combined with purposeful storytelling, a talk doesn’t just inform — it connects, influences, and stays with people long after it ends.This episode is the audio from our

Your story is not just your story. It's part of a larger narrative about whose voices are heard and whose are erased.I’m thrilled to have Janice Gassam Asare back on the podcast. She's an organizational psychologist, equity consultant, and author of the new book Rise and Resist - and this conversation went places I didn't expect.What struck me most is how Janice reframes resistance.

Have you ever heard a speaker share a story and have one of these reactions:#1: Wow, I really feel connected to what this person is saying.
