Des Dobreva — Experiencing Cyber-Bullying, Overcoming Suicide, Leveraging Your Inner Rage, Trusting Yourself and More - #15

Des Dobreva is The Branding Queen.

And she's epic.

Not because she's dominating the business branding arena (which she totally is) —

But because she's also a down-to-earth and genuine human being.

(and she has two rescue cats named Lucifurr and Sushi).

Whether it's leaving Bulgaria at 22 to study abroad ... washing dishes to pay for university ... or fighting back against cyber-bullying ... 

Des Dobreva is a powerhouse.

Coming from one of the poorest European countries, Des had to fight her way through life.

After being cyber-bullied, she wanted to call it quits and take her own life.

But she didn't.

Des realised she had a choice.

So after hitting rock-bottom, Des decided to give life another chance.

When studying abroad in Denmark, Des couldn't even afford the plane ticket home to see her parents.

But - she was determined to succeed.

So Des worked hard, pushed through the pain, and learned all she could about branding.

Now — Des Dobreva empowers her clients to build authentic brands and online communities in their niche.

She first fell in love with branding as a teenager.

After watching Gossip girl, Des saw the power of recreating your identity through branding (enter: Blair Waldorf).

So at 22, Des moved to Denmark to get her Masters in Branding.

Now, she offers courses and empowers business-owners to create killer, authentic, attention-stealing brands.

"You can't connect the dots looking forward, you can only connect them looking backward." - Steve Jobs

Sometimes, life deals you a bad hand.

It can be rough.

But if you look closely, it can also be a chance to grow.

To re-create yourself.

Des Dobreva is using her own journey to empower others.

She fights back against people who try to tear her down (it's so cool).

Because — you can leverage your rage to tackle crazy obstacles and online trolls.

You can use your rage to change the world.

Rage is a source of passion.

Motivation.

It's fiery.

Provocative.

And it can drive you to take action.

The direction you take is up to you.

Des has a free event coming up called Off the record for people who want to build a powerful brand in 2023.
