🎙️ Do you ever wonder how to show up as the face of your business without feeling weird, fake, or like you’re selling your soul?
This episode is straight from my talk at the Plano Chamber Women's Division Lunch on June 11, where I got real about what it takes to grow your influence and impact through authentic personal branding.
