You already have a personal brand - even if youâve never thought about it that way.
Itâs not about being an influencer or having a perfectly curated aesthetic. Your personal brand is how you show up in the world, how youâre perceived, and how you connect with others.
Today, I'm joined by Krista Marie - personal branding strategist, photographer, and podcast host - to break down what it really means to create a personal brand that feels like you, and not just some performance.In this episode, weâre covering:What a personal brand actually is (and what it isnât)How to build your brand around your values, not just your visualsThe difference between your niche and your personal brandHow to show up authentically - even if you donât feel âreadyâ yetIf youâre ready to create a personal brand youâre actually proud of without all of the overwhelm and generic advice, this episode is for you!

In this episode, weâre debunking the âright timeâ myth and how you can stop falling into this trap. If youâre ready to stop thinking and start doing, youâre in the right place!

Our National Parks are in danger, plain and simple. After mass layoffs in February, the National Park Service is now facing staffing issues that are going to have a direct impact on everything from park cleanliness and camping availability to visitor safety and emergency response times.
Because of this news, I thought it was important to draw attention to the amazing programs that the NPS provides to the public by revisiting my conversation with Ranger Connie from 2023. Connie Lau is a former high school teacher who made a huge career pivot by stepping out of the classroom and into the great outdoors as a park ranger at Yosemite.
After hearing about Connieâs role as a ranger, I think youâll have an even greater appreciation of this type of work (I know I did!), and maybe even be inspired to make a big career pivot yourself!

How many times have you waited to hit publish on something because âitâs not ready yetâ? Or how much time have you spent researching HOW to do something, instead of actually doing it?
You, my friend, have fallen into the âperfectionâ trap (no judgement: I know this trap well).

Letâs be honest: putting your thing out into the world is SCARY! Whether youâre an artist or a coach or a small business owner, it can always be uncomfortable talking about your product or service.
You might start asking yourself âwhat if no one buys?â
Or âwhat if people thing Iâm being annoying?â
Or, worst yet, âwhat if no one is paying attention at all and I just hear crickets every time I post?â
And these are all totally natural fears, but theyâre getting in your way! Your fear of being annoying or salesy is holding you back from showing up authentically and confidently selling what you have to offer.
In todayâs episode, Iâm talking with Shaina Braun, founder of the Anti 9-5, about to get over all of those limiting beliefs that are holding you back from showing up, sharing your thing, and making sales!
Sheâs talking about how often you should post about your offer (spoiler: itâs a lot!) and how to make sure that your content is being seen by the right people at the right time. Weâre also digging into finding your path as a multi-passionate person, infusing your business with brand with your own personality, and how to find confidence when youâre first starting out.
In other words, itâs a value-packed conversation and youâre not going to want to miss this one.
