We also talk about Casey’s own thought leadership journey and the process of rooting into her passion, story, and lived experience to grow her brand and business on LinkedIn.

"By showing up as a thought leader and really leading with my passion and "why," I'm attracting the type of people I want to attract. It doesn't feel like visibility for the sake of visibility, but centered around a larger purpose." - Casey Handy-Smith
