Welcome Episode: Why Putting Yourself Out There is Critical For Your Personal Brand With Michelle Griffin

Today I share how finding professional clarity and "putting yourself out there" is the fastest and best way to stand out in your niche for more impact and profit

Hello and welcome to the "official" welcome episode. I'm your host, personal brand/marketing, and PR strategist, Michelle B Griffin and I'm excited to go on this journey with you.

In this episode, I *candidly* share my story, my big mistakes, and lessons learned. I detail my story of why it took me five years of finding my professional direction and exactly how it led me to what I'm on a mission to do now: help other professionals stand out online with where they are now and what they have *right now* to build their professional brands and presence online.

Quotes 

● I had this great job and it was amazing. But I knew I needed more.

● One of the reasons I’m always saying put yourself out there is because that’s what exactly I didn't do for five years.

● I was just stuck. I was lost and I just didn’t have direction.

● There’s nowhere you can go to get clarity. You can’t take a course unless you know exactly who you are.

● We have everything we need right now. Your expertise. Your Vision. Your mission. All these things are already inside you. You just need someone to help you get them out.

● Clarity is the best gift you can give yourself and your business
