Sound familiar? If it weren't so damn confusing, i would rebrand personal brand as character. Ideally, we make these choices intentionally, acting like a radio producer, editing raw material into a story, creating an understanding of ourselves in others. That's true, but also focused on what we do and what we want to be known for. Sometimes we make these choices unintentionally, which usually doesn't turn out all that great. So let's just say that the public character of you is just that, a character, and you need to figure out what pieces of yeu fit into the story you want to tell of you and which pieces don't.

the nancy opdike interviewed

me for the show. And so sbasicly, her story about me,

this dog

who was raised in very bad circumstances and is a rescue and andis very anxious and has nearly

died a bunch of times

frin his health issues. And how does that coexist in your brain with cooking for your dog every day? W, i don't have a problem thinking something i do es

laughable. I think

people had a picture of me in their head that was based on projection, on what they project on to me. And mostly the projection is like things about themselves, and they justm well, wi
