About this listen

Are you ready to build confident connections that lead to deeper relationships, stronger influence, and lasting trust - in both your personal and professional life?


You know connection matters.

You know communication impacts everything.

But you may not be sure how to show up with confidence, read people well, or build trust quickly without feeling awkward, performative, or “salesy.”


There is a more natural, human way to connect.


Confident Connections is a podcast for leaders, professionals, entrepreneurs, and anyone who wants to strengthen relationships, increase influence, and feel more confident in how they show up, through what they say and how they show up.


This podcast goes beyond surface-level communication tips and focuses on the real drivers of connection:

•Trust

•Confidence

•Presence

•Listening

•Influence

•Verbal communication and body language


I love helping people understand how connection actually works through awareness, authenticity, and intention. When you understand yourself and how others experience you, conversations flow more easily, relationships deepen, and confidence becomes natural.


Hey friend! I’m so glad you’re here.

Confident Connections gives you practical tools, real-life examples, and simple mindset shifts to help you:

•Build trust faster

•Strengthen professional and personal relationships

•Improve communication at work and at home

•Make better first impressions

•Read the room with more clarity

•Use body language and presence to support what you say

•Show up with confidence without trying to be someone you’re not


I’m Lisa Lou, a communication and connection coach who helps people build trust and influence through confident connection. I’ve spent years helping individuals and teams understand how confidence, presence, and connection are shaped by communication, including listening, tone, and body language.


What I’ve learned is this:

True confidence doesn’t come from saying the perfect thing. It comes from understanding connection.


When you know how to listen well, communicate clearly, and align your words with your body language and presence, you stop overthinking and start connecting in ways that feel natural and impactful.


This podcast is for anyone who finds themselves asking:

•Why do some conversations feel easy while others feel uncomfortable?

•How do I build trust without trying so hard?

•How can I communicate more confidently at work and in relationships?

•How do I use body language and presence to support my message?

•How do I influence without being pushy or inauthentic?

•How do I feel more confident showing up as myself?


Each episode of Confident Connections blends practical communication strategies, leadership insight, body language awareness, and encouragement - all designed to help you build confident connections that strengthen relationships and elevate how you show up in every area of life.


So grab your favorite drink, take a deep breath, and come sit with me.

Let’s talk about connection, confidence, communication, and body language, and how small shifts can lead to powerful, lasting impact.
