Don’t let personal brands intimidate you. Here’s what you can do today.

Don’t let “personal brand” trip you up.

Sure, it’s what you want to be known for and there’s an aspect of building it. But another way to think about it in case you feel like you “need one”, here’s what it can also be:

📖 Having stories to tell
🧠 Sharing your learnings and how people can apply it to themselves
💪🏼 Talking about your mistakes and how you overcame them
🏆 Applauding your success and lifting others while you climb
👥 Building a community and creating genuine connections
👩🏻‍🏫 Teaching others something they may not know
✨ Inspiring others to take the next step in their own journey

💛 Talking about things you like
👩🏻‍💻 Talking about something that’s caught your interest
💭 Sharing your big ideas and dreams
🤭 Wanting to make someone laugh
🥂Just wanting to make friends

Yes, you’ll feel the rewards of putting in the work. Your reputation grows. You can become a thought leader. You become a subject matter expert.

But it’s so much more. There are opportunities to reach out and make an impact in so many other ways.

And sometimes even more meaningful ways.

What else does personal branding mean to you?
