Listen "Claude Silver on Authenticity, Empathy, and the Power of Being You (ep. 828)"
Episode Synopsis
Claude Silver is on a mission to bring more humanity into the workplace. As the world's first Chief Heart Officer at VaynerX, she partners with CEO Gary Vaynerchuk to drive their success and redefine what leadership looks like. Instead of striving for perfection, Claude reminds us that the real power lies in showing up as ourselves. Her debut book, Be Yourself at Work, makes a bold case that authenticity and empathy aren't soft skills… they're the strongest tools we have. Today, Claude shares how she learned to lead with heart, listen with intention, and create cultures where people don't just fit in, they belong. From her early lessons in self-discovery to her role guiding teams around the world, Claude opens up about the road to self-awareness, the courage to be vulnerable, and the practical ways we can all lead with compassion and purpose. My friends, if you've ever felt like you had to hide part of yourself to succeed, this conversation is for you. You'll leave reminded that kindness is strength, authenticity is freedom, and the best way to lead others is by being fully yourself.
