What happens when your identity is so wrapped up in your job title… and then everything shifts?


In this episode of Leaders Lane, I chat with Melissa Cohen, who left behind a high-flying fashion career and found herself rebuilding from scratch—on LinkedIn of all places.


We dive into:

  • Why your headline really matters
  • The balance between being personal and professional online
  • How commenting (yes, commenting!) can grow your brand
  • And why engagement beats going viral—every time


As a LinkedIn Top Voice, Melissa doesn’t just talk about building a personal brand—she lives it. 


So, if you’re at a career crossroad …
If your job title just took an undesirable plunge into the abyss


If LinkedIn feels like a mystery or your content's getting crickets, this one’s for you.


👉 Tune in on Spotify, Apple—and now YouTube.
