When Your Job No Longer Defines You
For years, I took tremendous pride in the fact that I worked for some of the world’s most famous brands. They were iconic, and I was able to ride the coattails of their tremendous prestige. It’s as though we were fused. I was them, and they were me. Until a fateful reorganization came along, and my entire team and I were let go. Suddenly, I was left on my own, without a corporate logo to validate my worth. It was a stark reminder of a class I once took where I learned that your personal brand is more than a logo, a LinkedIn headline, or a polished résumé. It’s how you show up, how you carry yourself, and the energy you bring into every room — both physical and virtual. And at the core of it all? Confidence.
Your Power Has Never Lived in a Logo
We are living in a world where reorgs and layoffs are more common than ever. I went through so many and lost track at twelve! Right now, companies are restructuring, industries are shifting, and even the federal government is experiencing significant reductions. In times like these, it’s easy to feel powerless, wondering what your place will be in the new landscape. Will you have a job? Will you have to start over? Will you end up losing extremely valuable needs like your car or home?? But here’s the truth: your power has never lived in the brand of the company you work for — it has always lived in YOU.
Confidence: The Game-Changer in Your Personal Brand
Your personal brand is what makes you valuable, no matter where you work. It’s the unique combination of your expertise, presence, and leadership style that makes you unforgettable. And the number one factor that determines whether people see you as a leader, a visionary, and someone they want to work with: confidence.
When you step into a room with confidence, people take notice. Not because you’re the loudest, the flashiest, or the most extroverted, but because confidence is magnetic. It signals certainty, capability, and credibility.
How a Lack of Confidence Holds You Back
But here’s the thing — a lack of confidence shows up just as loudly.
- It’s in the hesitation before speaking up in a meeting.
- The way you downplay your accomplishments.
- The reluctance to be visible, whether that’s on social media, in leadership conversations, or even in the way you present yourself.
Why Confidence and Branding Go Hand in Hand
If you’re holding back, second-guessing your worth, or playing small, it’s affecting the way people see you. And that’s why confidence is not just an inner game; it’s a key part of your brand strategy.
More Than Just a Photoshoot—A Transformational Experience
This is exactly why I’m so excited to partner with renowned photographer Tricia McCormack for a special collaboration focused on confidence and personal branding. Together, we’re creating an experience that won’t just give you stunning branding photos, but will also completely shift how you see yourself.
Tricia has spent years capturing leaders, entrepreneurs, and professionals at their best. But great branding photos don’t start with the right lighting or the perfect pose. They start with how you feel about yourself. And that’s where I come in.
Through coaching, I help you step into your full presence so that when the camera flashes, you’re not just seen, but felt. So you walk away not only with incredible images but with a renewed belief in yourself that extends far beyond the photoshoot.
Are You Ready to Be Seen, Really Seen?
If you’ve ever struggled with showing up as the most confident version of yourself, this experience is just what you need: designed to help you step into your next level, own your brand with certainty, and walk away with the confidence you deserve — inside and out.
Your Brand Is Your Biggest Asset—Own It
No matter what’s happening in the economy, your company, or your industry, you are your own greatest asset. When you own your personal brand, you create opportunities. Because people don’t just invest in companies. They invest in YOU.
