As female entrepreneurs, it can feel uncomfortable to write out our biographies and brag about what we have accomplished. It can also be exhausting thinking about all the things we haven’t accomplished yet instead of focusing on what we have and sitting in a place of gratitude for that.  That’s why episode 146 of Becoming Iconic is about creating the perfect professional Bio with Melissa Mucci Pineda! 

In this episode of Becoming Iconic, Melissa is sharing the importance of celebrating yourself in your bio and actionable steps you can take right now to confidently share your accomplishments in a way that is both professional and very helpful for pitching or collaborating. 

Melissa and I cover some of the following topics: 

• Melissa’s journey from professor to copy editor, including the challenge she had as a professor with a love of fashion and how she turned her love of embracing her own personal style into being able to identify and amplify the personal style of the people she edits for. 
• What a professional bio is, why you need one, and what to include in both the long-form and shortened versions.
• Big grammatical errors to look out for as you write or read copy.
• The importance of consistency with everything from numbers to your message. 

Your professional Bio can make a lot of opportunities come to life for you before you’ve even had a chance to talk with someone face to face, so making sure you’ve created the perfect message that’s both professional and interesting is important. Be sure to tune in to all the episodes to receive tons of practical tips on all things business, style, relationships and family.
