# 203: How Building A Personal Brand Landed Me Game Changing Opportunities

In today's episode of the 'Career Change Maker' podcast, I talk about personal branding. What it looks like to be building a personal brand and then why it can be impactful? 

The reason why I want to focus on this is to show you that building of the brand is essentially your way of showing up and sharing with the world what you want to share. Because you show up, because you share, then opportunities can come your way.

Episode Highlights:

·       02.05: I start by explaining personal brand, what does that mean? 

·       03.02: I talk a little bit about the defined phase and why it's so important to slow down when you are thinking about the fact that you need to show up more and the fact that you need to build a personal brand, you need to really define what it is. 

·       04.12: I am going to talk to you through my journey so I can illustrate how I have gone about building out my personal brands. 

·       06.42: I wanted to help other people with their career transitions to figure out what they want to do, to support them with making the transition and so that is what I wanted to be known for. 

·       9.15: If you want to be more intentional about your brand, you don't have to have it all figured out straight away. It's about you doing stuff, testing it, seeing what works for you, what you like and then overtime you can refine what it is you are actually doing and what you are putting out there.

·       11.17: I want to share my perspective about careers to actually building a profitable coaching business and becoming a corporate trainer and being invited to speak on stages.

·       14.50: If you decide to build a personal brand about something that you're passionate about. You get to make an impact without waiting for it to come through your employer 

·       18.13: In 2019 I did a TEDx talk, and I shared about the key ingredient for your breakthrough. How do you go about getting your career breakthrough?

What you will learn:

•  There are a lot of different platforms that people talk about when it comes to building a personal brand, but it's important to take stock and not get overwhelmed.
• One of the biggest pieces around building your personal brand is sharing your perspective.
• Networking is just building relationships. So, once you know what you want to be known for and you start talking about that in whatever format that is for you then you are in a position to start finding other like-minded people who are interested in the same thing.
• When building your own personal brand, you get to show up and you get to do what you want to do in terms of building your brand consistently and then there are people out there that will be impacted and touched by your brand, and you don't even realize it.
