TRANSCRIPT

Welcome to talk about talk episode #106 – a Q&A; on Personal Branding.  

My name is Dr. Andrea Wojnicki (please call me Andrea!). I’m the founder of Talk About Talk, and I’m your communication coach.

Are you an ambitious executive?  Do you have a growth mindset?  Are you looking to advance your career? Well, you’re in the right place. At Talk About Talk, we focus on communication skills topics like confidence, demonstrating leadership, and yes, personal branding. If you check out the TalkAboutTalk.com website, you’ll find tons to resources to help you, including the new online course on Personal Branding, as well as 1-on-1 coaching, the archive of this bi-weekly podcast, and the free weekly email newsletter. Please go sign up for that newsletter if you haven’t already .  You can think of it as free communication-skills coaching. You can find all this at talkabouttalk.com

OK – A few months ago we released the first Q&A; episode focused on general communication skills – that was episode 102.  Given the overwhelmingly positive feedback we received, we decided to do this again, this time with the Q&A; focused on Personal Branding.

These episodes are different from other TAT episodes. You’re going to hear a Q&A; that was recorded from the FishBowl App with over 850 fishbowl members listening live and firing Qs at me. Have you heard of Fishbowl? Fishbowl is a platform for professionals where they can have honest career conversations.  I encourage you to check it out. You’ll find links to Fishbowl and lots of other Personal Branding resources in the shownotes for this episode and also on the Talkabouttalk.com website.

In THIS episode, you’re going to hear my unscripted answers to unscripted questions about everything from how to define a personal brand to why PB’g is important, to lots and lots of questions about improving your confidence, and even how to recover when you’ve made a mistake that might hurt your personal brand.

I counted a total of 13 questions.  So this is really like a masterclass on PBing. I hope you’re ready to learn lots. And if you like what you hear, I invite you to take the recently launched Personal Branding online course. It’s called “5 Steps to Nail Your PB.” In this self-paced intensive course, I will guide you step by step through the process of articulating your personal brand. I promise this course will help you introduce yourself with confidence. You can find out all about that course on the TAT website.

OK – Before we get into the Q&A;, I two quick things you need to know.
