60. Becoming a Trusted Authority: Influence Without Drama with Julie Masters

In Episode 60 of It Starts With YOU, Vic O'Farrell is joined by Julie Masters for a powerful conversation on what it really means to have influence in today's world. With social media blurring the lines between popularity and authority, this episode cuts through the noise and brings the focus back to what actually drives behaviour. From fear-based influence to trusted authority, Julie shares the difference between getting attention and creating real impact. They explore the rise of the human brand, the power of intention, and how easily our behaviour is shaped by where we place our attention. This episode is a reminder that influence doesn't start with others; it starts with you, how you show up, the state you're in, and the intention you bring into every interaction.   "It Starts with You" podcast is available everywhere on Wednesdays every fortnight.  If you enjoyed this episode, please leave a rating and review!
