You Already Have a Voice: Personal Voice Matters as Much as Brand
You keep hearing you need a personal brand. What if the pressure to package yourself is exactly what’s getting in the way?
Nicole has been sitting with a question for a while now — what does it actually mean to have a personal voice, separate from the brands she’s built for others? In this conversation, she’ll get into the real difference between building a brand and finding your voice, how to think about your personal voice in relation to your business and your career path, and why the version that feels a little rough around the edges might be the most honest one you’ve got – and the most engaging.
You’ll leave with more ease, and your own way of showing up.
