5 Lies in Personal Branding You Must Sto...

Emily Ford
About this episode

Are you ready to stop playing small and finally own your personal brand? A few months ago, I hosted a masterclass that left people buzzing, breaking down 5 major lies about personal branding that you absolutely need to stop believing. And guess what? By popular demand, I’m sharing it right here with you.

Whether you caught it live or this is your first time listening, I guarantee you’re going to hear something that hits differently this time. Truth has a way of doing that. Hearing it again, right where you are today, could spark the clarity you’ve been searching for. So grab a notebook, because you’ll want to jot down every single gem.

This was originally recorded live so you’ll hear some interactive moments and maybe a different vibe in the sound. But that’s what makes it special and it’s now yours to revisit and replay anytime you need to realign and level up. Let’s dive in!

In this episode:
  • Why your unique story is your biggest asset
  • Modeling vs Mimicking
  • How your personal brand evolves with you
  • Finding the balance between your business and your personal brand
  • The danger of being overly specific
  • Content Pillars and Overarching Themes
  • Why first impressions matter
  • The role of visuals in brand identity
  • Real-life examples of how elevating visuals helps attract higher-value clients and opportunities
  • The Online Burnout Trap
  • Content Batching
  • Aligning your content creation with your natural energy rhythms
  • Redefining Productivity
  • Embracing vulnerability and imperfection
  • Breaking the spirit of rejection
  • The Authenticity Advantage
  • From self-esteem to God-esteem
  • And so much more!
