5.0

I wasn't sure what to expect when I first picked this up, but I was pleasantly surprised! This book is filled with practical advice, exercises and relevant stories on becoming more charismatic.

I have to admit, I had a lot of preconceived notions about charisma and what makes a person charismatic, and Olivia Fox Cabane showed me how wrong I was! I particularly appreciated the focus on mindset work: visualizing, reframing, and being present are such worthwhile practices -- for becoming more charismatic, and also for having an incredibly fulfilling life.

I'm excited to start practicing some of the strategies outlined here to increase my charisma, influence, and leadership skills.
