What Makes You Weird, Makes You Wealthy

You've been trying to fit in. Learning the industry standards. Following best practices. Being professional. Being credible. Being like everyone successful.

But what if you're optimizing for the wrong thing?

What if instead of apologizing, you should be celebrating?

Research shows industry outsiders drive breakthrough innovation at significantly higher rates than insiders. Not despite being different. Because of it.

Sara Blakely (fax machine salesperson → Spanx). Yvon Chouinard (climber → Patagonia). Rihanna (cultural outsider → Fenty Beauty). None of them succeeded by fitting in. They succeeded by leveraging what made them different.

Today: The four types of valuable outlier perspectives. And the exact framework for turning your "weirdness" into strategic advantage when building a brand.

You'll discover:

• Why industry insiders are actually constrained (and you're not)
• The outlier type you probably are (and didn't know was an asset)
• Why neurodivergent thinking creates natural business advantages
• The four-step framework from hiding difference to leading with it
• Why "what if I alienate customers" is the wrong thing to be worrying about
• How to price for uniqueness instead of competing on sameness

Listen if:

• You've been hiding parts of yourself to seem "professional"
• You don't have traditional industry credentials (and feel like an imposter)
• Your brain works differently than "normal"
• You've been told you're "too different" or "don't fit the mold"
• You're tired of trying to be like everyone else
•
