“Feeling connection is the same whether I’m in front of an audience with a guitar, or behind a desk talking to someone about what they’ve done the last 40 years. As a corporate executive, you have to connect with people and then pick up that thread and pass it along to someone else.” - Tony Vlahos

As we have just celebrated the holidays and are beginning another chapter in a brand new year, once again I’ll be sharing my “Holiday Picks” selections, featuring some of the top Finding Brave episodes that have previously aired, to help you have even more bravery and motivation to pursue your most exciting goals in 2022.

Today we look back on a powerful episode from October 2019, where our guest revealed how your personal story and the difference that you can make with it is something that can set you apart from others. He also shared the way that storytelling your career can be your secret competitive advantage, and how stand-out brands and the compelling stories those brands communicate are deeply connected to each other. And he reveals the components of a riveting story that you can use to craft your story and growing your own brand today.
