In Conversation with Janna Landry

Janna Landry started as a performer — the kind of professional who has to win an audience in seconds — and then brought those same tools into the business world. In this conversation, she breaks down what “executive presence” really is: not polish, not perfection, not a fake persona, but emotionally grounded communication that matches who you are and who you’re speaking to.We dig into her framework for communication styles, why audiences detect misalignment instantly, and how a “passion pitch” lands better than a rehearsed elevator speech. Janna also makes a strong case for humour and imperfection as trust accelerators, plus the underrated power of pauses — letting the room breathe. The episode closes with practical advice on navigating change, reframing failure, and leading with your heart while sharpening your message.The Journey is your builder’s reference library.
