In this episode of BizBlend, host Sana explores the power of quiet leadership with Monica Rivera—personal branding strategist, TEDx speaker, and the voice behind You Wanna Do What?. Together, they discuss why being loud isn’t the same as being impactful. Monica shares how introverts, ambiverts, and soft-spoken leaders can build presence, pitch powerfully, and lead with quiet clarity—without pretending to be someone they’re not.
