    Click here to pinpoint the specific area in your executive presence that’s keeping you invisible to senior leadership and guarantees you stay working hard as a pack mule who never gets promoted.

    Many accomplished leaders tell the kind of story that leaves the audience checking their latest Slack message or maybe their upcoming Amazon delivery.

    What if your story doesn't need more polish?

    What if they need to feel less finished?

    In this episode of Speak Up: Develop Your Executive Presence, Laura Camacho reveals an unexpected storytelling lesson from Spencer Pratt: the most influential stories invite people into what happens next.

    Using Spencer and Heidi Montag’s experience after losing their home in the 2025 Pacific Palisades fire, Laura breaks down how leaders can create more compelling stories without manufacturing drama, oversharing, or sacrificing executive presence.

    In today's episode you’ll learn the following from a legit reality tv star:

    🔥How to identify the exact moment of change that creates tension and immediately pulls people into your story.

    1️⃣Why one concrete, memorable detail can communicate the stakes more powerfully than polished corporate language.

    🧩How to leave the right part of your story unresolved so your audience understands the role they can play in moving the outcome forward.

    Play the episode to learn how to turn your leadership stories from polished summaries into compelling narratives that give people a reason to listen, believe, and act.

    An unfinished story with a meaningful role for the audience can create action.

    And action is where storytelling becomes influence.

    High performers are often rewarded for knowing more, doing more, explaining more, and working harder. But as you move into senior leadership, those same habits can start working against you.

    By the end of this episode you’ll know how to:

    🏆Communicate with greater authority by saying less, prioritizing what matters, and eliminating unnecessary information

    🏹Strengthen your influence by asking sharper questions, creating productive friction, and focusing less on proving you’re the smartest person in the room

    🪝Increase your executive presence by replacing busyness, overwork, and boring communication with better judgment, clarity, and memorable ideas

    Play the episode to discover what you can stop doing this week to create more influence, clearer decisions, and stronger executive presence—without simply working harder.
