Do you ever wonder why first impressions spark connections—or cause instant shut-downs? Are you struggling to translate your real-life personality into your digital presence?  In Episode 408 of The Charisma Quotient, “Communication Secrets That Spark Attraction: Interview with Jess Jensen” Kimmy welcomes executive communications strategist Jess Jensen, founder of Copilot Communications, for a dynamic conversation that bridges the worlds of business and dating. Together, they break down how your presence—online and offline—makes or breaks first impressions, and why charisma is the secret edge in both arenas.

 

Together, they reveal how presence, energy, body language, and authenticity matter just as much—if not more—than the words you say when you’re aiming to connect with others both in love and business. Kimmy opens the episode with a powerful story about transforming a socially anxious executive’s networking and dating life, setting the stage for practical tips everyone can use.

Jess shares how the evolution of social media has reshaped communication and highlights the similarities between building a strong professional brand and making heartfelt connections in dating. The duo discusses the most common blunders people make with their online profiles and digital presence, stressing the importance of storytelling, approachability, and vulnerability—skills that captivate both clients and potential romantic partners.

 You’ll hear:

  • Why first impressions matter even before you say “hello”—and how to control the story your presence tells

  • The science and art behind making judgments in just 7 seconds (yes, the research is in!)

  • Real stories of transformation: how a wardrobe change and a charisma boost led a client from boardroom nerves to romantic sparks

  • Jess’s 5-step framework to shape your online and offline presence (with actionable tips at every level)
