In this engaging episode of "Connect with Confidence," host Kerrie welcomes Rob Ferre, a dynamic speaker and theme park enthusiast from Salt Lake City, Utah. Rob shares his philosophy of connecting deeply with people, emphasizing the importance of asking meaningful questions and avoiding "relationship arrogance." Drawing from his experiences as a global traveler and professional speaker, Rob recounts his journey to Singapore for the Asia Professional Speakers Convention. He highlights the power of authentic connections, sharing stories that demonstrate how genuine curiosity can transform seemingly mundane interactions into profound moments of understanding. One particularly compelling narrative involves a chance encounter on an airplane, where Rob's simple question, "Are you going home or to work?" led to a transformative conversation with a displaced chef from Hawaii. This story illustrates Rob's belief in giving people grace and seeking to understand their deeper stories. Rob's passion for theme parks serves as a metaphor for his approach to life and connections. He describes magical experiences at Universal Studios and Disney Sea, comparing his sense of wonder to how he approaches networking and speaking engagements. His mantra of "know someone, not everyone" reflects a commitment to meaningful, depth-driven interactions. The podcast explores themes of vulnerability, confidence, and human connection. Rob candidly discusses moments of imposter syndrome, sharing how support from his wife helped him overcome self-doubt before a significant keynote in Italy. He advocates for asking unique, thought-provoking questions that go beyond surface-level small talk. Kerrie and Rob's conversation seamlessly weaves between personal anecdotes, professional insights, and philosophical reflections on human interaction. They discuss the importance of authenticity, the value of empathy, and how genuine connections can transform both personal and professional experiences.

If you've been struggling to get noticed, build credibility, or convert prospects into clients, this episode tackles the heart of that challenge.When life coach Cynthia asked how to get more people to know, like, and trust her, we uncovered the three foundations that create genuine trust: making people feel truly seen and understood, demonstrating credibility without self-promotion, and showing up both consistently and authentically. The surprising truth? Most business owners focus too heavily on consistency alone, missing the deeper emotional connections that transform casual followers into devoted clients.Many coaches believe that appearing polished and perfect is the path to being liked, but our experience proves the opposite. Your vulnerability and authenticity create far stronger connections than any carefully curated image. Real trust isn't built in grand gestures but accumulates through numerous small moments where your audience feels genuinely understood. This episode provides actionable strategies to create these trust-building moments through thoughtful engagement and content that speaks directly to your audience's challenges.Whether you're just starting your coaching business or looking to deepen relationships with existing clients, this framework will help you build trust naturally, without feeling salesy or inauthentic.

SummaryIn this conversation, Simon Harris shares his extensive experience in the hospitality industry, discussing the importance of genuine connections in dining experiences. He reflects on the evolution of hospitality, emphasizing the need for authentic interactions over scripted service. The discussion also touches on the impact of technology and nostalgia in shaping customer experiences, advocating for a return to the core values of hospitality that prioritize making guests feel valued and connected. Wil and Simon delve into the importance of cultivating a strong culture within the hospitality industry, emphasizing the need for genuine connections and community. They discuss the challenges faced in finding dedicated workers, especially post-COVID, and the impact of technology on the industry. The essence of hospitality is explored through the concept of phylloxenia, highlighting the selfless nature of true hospitality. The speakers also touch on the future of the industry, the role of independent establishments, and the importance of creating meaningful experiences for both staff and guests.Takeaways The hospitality industry has evolved, but the core values remain important. Authentic connections with guests are crucial for memorable dining experiences. Nostalgia plays a role in how we perceive hospitality today. Technology should enhance, not replace, human interactions in dining. The focus on celebrity chefs has overshadowed the importance of service. Great experiences come from genuine engagement, not scripted interactions. Building a community around a restaurant fosters loyalty and repeat business. Retention of staff is as important as customer retention in hospitality. The essence of hospitality is making people feel special and valued. Looking back at past practices can inform better future strategies in hospitality. A strong culture is essential for hospitality success. Genuine hospitality comes from selflessness, not monetary motivation. Finding dedicated workers is increasingly challenging post-COVID. The gig economy has drawn talent away from traditional hospitality roles. Community connection is vital for the future of hospitality. Phylloxenia embodies the spirit of hospitality as a love for strangers. Independent restaurants are thriving by providing unique experiences. Technology should enhance, not replace, human connection in hospitality. Injecting purpose into hospitality work can attract younger generations. The hospitality industry plays a crucial role in community support during crises.
