Some voices blend in by following industry norms. While others get heard by translating what they know into stories people already understand.
In this episode of Rise Above The Noise, Drew Boyer (financial planner and author of Hip Hop x Finance) reveals how stories, creativity, and authenticity can turn expertise into influence.
Drew shares how a single conference experience inspired him to merge music and money lessons, why writing a book became a launchpad instead of a finish line, and how relatable storytelling helps clients better understand financial concepts.
This conversation is a reminder that standing out has less to do with volume and more to do with choosing a different way to communicate.
What to expect:
- Why stories create a deeper connection than credentials alone
- How simplifying ideas builds trust with clients and online audiences
- Why leaning into personal passions can unlock new business opportunities
- How compound interest becomes a metaphor for influence and growth
