ELEVATE Series 2025 with Renée Marino: Mastering Human Connection in a Digital World
Renée Marino shares how authentic communication is your greatest advantage in the age of AI.
In this high-energy and heartfelt ELEVATE Series session, Renée Marino—Broadway star, communication coach, and author of Becoming a Master Communicator—reminds us what truly resonates. In a world rushing toward AI and automation, she invites us to return to something simple and powerful: real human connection.
With stories from her time on Broadway to coaching CEOs, Renée reveals how voice, presence, and emotional honesty can transform not only your brand but your confidence. She explains why communication is a muscle that must be trained, and how speaking your truth…even when it’s imperfect…is the key to leading with impact.
Whether you’re navigating visibility fears, digital overwhelm, or just want to speak more powerfully in your business, this episode is packed with strategies to help you stop overthinking and start owning your voice.
Here’s just some of the fantastic strategy and advice shared from this conversation:
👉 You don’t have to be polished to be powerful. Show up as yourself and people will feel your heart.
👉 Communication is a muscle. The more you train it, the more confident and authentic you become.
👉 Overpreparing can disconnect you. Presence is more magnetic than memorization.
👉 We often trust AI more than we trust our voice. It’s time to flip that.
👉 Emotional connection beats perfect scripting every time. Speak to be felt, not just heard.
👉 Clarity creates confidence. Know your message and your why—then speak from there.
