I fell in love with Boston and moved here on a whim. Since then, I've frequently been asked for recommendations. So, here they are! Enjoy.

The Complete Guide to build your personal brand with confidence! Discover the exact steps to uncover your Personal Brand Story, create your visual identity, plan your Personal Brand Photoshoot, optimize your social media profiles, and post with confidence online. Share your story with confidence and attract more opportunities with this comprehensive guide.

If you want to clarify your message, writing your Personal Brand Story is the first step. Sharing your Personal Brand Story takes bravery and vulnerability, but it's the best way to actualize your work and build a strong personal brand with a core message that people remember.

When deciding on your niche, you can either choose to focus on a specific area in your content or become your niche by incorporating all aspects of your life into your marketing strategy. Regardless of your choice, consistency in content and maintaining a clear direction are key to avoiding confusion for your audience.

You don’t have to feel limited, here’s how.

Good writing takes you where you want to go. To build your personal brand, a good rule to follow is, “Share what you know online, over and over again.” This practice attracts an audience, the people who will later become your followers, clients, and customers. The more content you share, the more you establish yourself as an expert, and give people a window into who you are and what’s important to you. By doing so, you can build a loyal community of people who not only appreciate your insights but also feel connected to you on a personal level. This is the prize to be won!

Fear is what prevents people from creating content and putting themselves out there online. This fear can stem from a lack of experience or time, or even dissatisfaction your current life. But you can overcome these hesitations. You can build a strong personal brand by being radically authentic, prioritizing what excites you, and strengthening your ability to stop chasing an ideal. It is possible to achieve this precisely where you are right now. Nothing needs to change except your scope of what you believe is possible.

I called myself a Personal Brand Strategist before I had any clients. I vividly remember setting up my LinkedIn profile after making the decision to start my business. I typed the words 'Personal Brand Strategist' into the title field, hit save, and hoped for the best. I had never worked with any clients before, and I hardly had any money at the time, but I was determined to change my situation and work with as many clients as possible.

Many people, although reluctant to admit it, want to build their audience as quickly as possible when they first start building their personal brand. Some are upfront about their desire for fast growth, while others may say something like, "Getting followers isn't my main priority, but I want my efforts to count for something."

The number of followers a person has become a new form of social currency. Even so, I’ll be honest with you: getting followers for my clients and students is **not** a top priority for me. And I’ll tell you why in a second.

Have you ever tried filming yourself in public before? If you have, I’m sure you know how cringey it can feel at first 🤪 It can even feel scary! Here are some tricks I’ve shared with my students that might help you take action and get started today:

I’ll never forget the day I set up my HoneyBook account. I was beaming with absolute excitement. (Leave it to me to over-romanticize this entire moment. But honestly, it felt like the first day of High School or something).

Taylor is a coach and content creator, so naturally, we had a lot to talk about. And over the last few months, he’s gained over 150k+ followers on Instagram and TikTok. I asked him if he had a strategy. His answer might surprise you, but it was just as I suspected.

You can be many things, do many things, share many things, and all of these things fit under your personal brand, because your personal brand is you. But if you really want to build a real platform, community, and brand that’s recognizable, lead with one.

I got an interesting email from a client the other day. It said, “Reworked personal brand story. It's too long and I keep asking myself "who cares?" as I read it.” My heart sank. I know this question. It’s the mother-load of all questions. The ‘WHO CARES’ question has plagued me, plagued my clients, plagued my students in Personal Brand Accelerator.​ It’s the question I've asked to justify my own content. And it’s the wrong question. Here’s why.

No one likes to be told what to do. No one wants to be preached at. So let people discover you and your process without telling them how to build theirs.

This weekend has been a good reminder of how important it is to have people in our lives who are willing to go there with us. Who really listen, ask the tough questions, and give us the feedback we need in order to bring something valuable to life. Who is that person for you?

He took the long way there, along the Florida coast, past the beautiful beaches, because he knows I like the scenic route. When we arrived at our destination, a tour guide with blonde hair greeted us at the door. “Is this your first time here?” She asked.

If you also want to build an authentic personal brand, tell your story, create content, then consider joining the waitlist for Round 9 starting on August, 31, 2023. It’s going to be the best round yet, as we are meticulously improving the experience for future students--you!

After working with hundreds of people on their personal brand, here's what I know for certain: Personal branding looks different in different seasons of our lives. Sometimes, it looks like experimenting with daily content to find what works best (in the beginning, this is really important)! And other times, it means choosing to double down on one thing so you can bring it to fruition.
