I’m chatting with the inspirational Julie Masters. Julie is the leading authority in the speaking world and has earned a reputation for launching and advising some of the world’s most respected thought leaders. Her amazing clients include industry-leading CEOs, entrepreneurs, speakers and best-selling authors.

Julie co-founded Ode Management, the world’s largest dedicated speaker management agency across the USA and Australia and is the founder and CEO of Influence Nation where she works with business leaders and organisations to stand out in their marketplace by turning their expertise into real influence.

In this episode, Julie is here to discuss how to increase your influence and confidence. She recommends stopping using the word ‘confidence’ entirely and adopting a mindset of certainty.

Julie shares her journey from never wanting to step on a stage to recently doing an event in front of 3,000 people as a global speaker. It all begins by just saying ‘yes’ to opportunities and Julie is here to show you where to start and how you can increase your influence.

There are so many valuable nuggets of information and advice in our conversation today and I know you’ll want to come back to this episode again for inspiration and to remind yourself to focus on version 8 and not versions 1 to 7.
