[21:02] Video Bios are a great way to supplement your CV or Resume and an effective way to help show people who you are and what you do. In this episode we speak with Heather Flanagan who recently created her first Video Bio. Heather is one of those individuals that unless you are familiar with her industry, you may not truly understand what she does - but her Video Bio helps demystify that.
Heather shares with us how she came out of her comfort zone and why she decided to create a Video Bio; what she learned about the process and about herself along the way.
She also gives us tips and advice on creating a Video Bio and even how she used ChatGPT as part of her process.
We also review her first video - with a Toastmasters style evaluation and go over what she really did well and how perhaps she can add more value and more punch to improve her next one
