In this episode I talk about branding and why branding with soul is the most important part of your business, especially if you’re a personal brand, coach, creative or creator.
For years, I was my brand, I could meet people on the street and they’d want to work with me. The universe plonked me in places and spaces where people needed me. I didn’t really know how to translate that into an ‘online brand’, I share about this more in the episode.
I use examples of Sophia Amoruso, Barry’s, Soul Cycle, Lululemon and many more to illustrate my point.
Brands are what we associate with. We judge people, businesses and purchase decisions based on our values and whether that brand aligns with them.
In short, this is a podcast about branding, values, and how elitist we all are in some shape or form.
