#22 What People Trust Before They Buy (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Reputation is one of those things we like to think we control, but the truth is a little messier than that. It is shaped in the moments people remember, repeat, and quietly use to decide whether they trust us enough to work with us or send someone else our way.

When everything has history, context, pressure, and possibility attached to it, it gets harder to tell the difference between what’s working, what’s not, and what you need to just wait out. If you are in a season of business where your brain feels tangled trying to hold it all, this episode will feel familiar. It is a coffee-fueled reminde

☕ Grab your favorite caffeinated beverage and join us for today's episode, where we're going behind the brew of issue #68: When Comparison Hijacks Your Brain Comparison gets weird fast when someone else’s win starts feeling like a threat. It is one thing to notice success and feel inspired by it.
