In this episode, I sit down with Ivana Ivanek — keynote speaker, mindset coach, and business strategist — to unpack the invisible fears that stop so many would-be entrepreneurs from building a personal brand. We go deep on what it really takes to show up online, why the transformation industry feels both saturated and intimidating, and how to take meaningful action even when fear is sitting in the front seat. Ivana shares her own journey from corporate burnout to working from an island (yes, really), and why visibility isn’t optional if you want to make an impact in 2025 and beyond.
Whether you’re stuck at the “but what will people think?” stage or you’re just tired of hiding behind Canva quotes and overthinking your message — this one’s for you.
