Now, through his company <em>Be Confident and Kind</em>, he helps leaders at Amazon, Google, Uber and beyond unlock their true potential through connection, warmth, and intentional kindness. His upcoming book, <em>The Charisma Craft</em>, available June 25th 2025, breaks down how anyone—introvert or extrovert—can harness charisma to lead with authenticity and drive performance.</p><p><br></p><p>We talk about why charisma isn’t just for the spotlight, how to make people feel seen, and how leaders can reduce conflict, inspire followership, and influence without force. Milam also shares what makes healthy charisma different from performative charm, how to build your own ABCs of influence, and why kindness is a leadership advantage—not a weakness.</p><p><br></p><p>🎧 Tune in and learn how to lead in a way that people genuinely want to follow.</p><p><br></p><p><strong>Episode Resources:</strong></p><p>Connect with Milam on<a href=\"https://www.linkedin.com/in/milam-miller-bck/\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\"> LinkedIn</a></p><p>Milam Miller’s Company: <a href=\"https://www.beconfidentandkind.com\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">Be Confident and Kind</a></p><p>Upcoming Book: <em>The Charisma Craft: A Modern Leadership Guide to Enhancing Your “Rizz” Factor</em> — coming June 2025</p><p>Above the Line / Below the Line Framework: <a href=\"https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4wR_sSBwG9U\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">Watch the 3-minute explainer video on YouTube</a></p><p>Day One Journal App: <a href=\"https://dayoneapp.com\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">https://dayoneapp.com</a></p><p>CrossFit: <a href=\"https://www.crossfit.com\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">https://www.crossfit.com</a></p><p>Vanessa Van Edwards – The Science of People: <a href=\"https://www.scienceofpeople.com\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">https://www.scienceofpeople.com</a></p><p>Olivia Fox Cabane – <em>The Charisma Myth</em>: <a href=\"https://www.amazon.com/dp/1591845947\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">Book on Amazon</a></p><p>ViRTUS: <a href=\"https://www.virtusinc.com/\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">Website</a> / <a href=\"https://www.instagram.com/virtus.inc/\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">Instagram</a> / <a href=\"https://www.linkedin.com/company/284723/admin/dashboard/\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">LinkedIn</a></p><p>Sign up for our Newsletter:<a href=\"https://www.virtusinc.com/\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\"> Sign Up</a></p>","author_name":"Mike Desjardins"}
