Amplify Your Voice in Politics

🎙️ Season 8, Episode 7: "Amplify Your Voice in Politics" with Katrien Van den Broeck

Today I’m super happy to welcome Katrien Van den Broeck, a political communication and campaign expert with a deep passion for empowering women in politics.

Katrien’s journey has taken her from historian to journalist to political strategist, working in both European and national politics.

We dive into a powerful conversation about:

  • 🎙️ Why being strategic and authentic is the key to building trust with the public.
  • 🏛️ The challenges women face in politics and how to navigate the "opportunity trap."
  • 📢 How social media is shaping political communication, both as a tool for empowerment and a source of challenges.
  • 📖 Katrien’s new book: Confronting the 10 Traps of Power: A Survival Guide for Women and Men in Politics and why it’s a must-read for anyone in leadership.
  • 🔍 What really goes on behind closed doors in high-level politics and the lessons learned from those experiences.
  • 🤝 How men can support women in politics: A topic Katrien is exploring in her next book.

We also discuss Alliance of Her, the academy that has trained over 300 women - including ministers, MEPs, and party leaders - and how its work is shaping the future of politics.

P.S. If you're looking for practical insights on leadership, visibility, and political communication, make sure to grab a copy of Katrien’s book and follow her work on:
