A little personal branding goes a long way... with Angelina Lawton

A little personal branding goes a long way... with Angelina Lawton

Women in business: How much does your personal brand impact your success as a business owner? How much of a role does your unique background play in the success of your business? And how much of your backstory should you be sharing with your network on platforms like LinkedIn? Should you be sharing more content about the business or more content about you and your background?

In this episode, Angelina Lawton, CEO and Founder of Sportsdigita, the company behind DigiDeck, a dynamic sales presentation tool now used by hundreds of organizations across sports, entertainment, hospitality and many other industries, joins me to share the story of her launch into entrepreneurship and her perspective on the role a CEO’s personal brand can play in the greater picture of their business success.

This is Angelina’s story.

Take your self talk seriously.

Take your self talk seriously.

Women in business: Are you listening to the voice inside your head? What is it saying? Is it being kind or harsh? Is it owning you – or are you owning it?

In this episode, I’m going to dig into the little double edged dagger of self-talk… and give you some tips and tricks on how to not only start taking that little voice inside your head seriously, but also teach you how to take ownership of it.

Start showing up as YOU and watch what happens... with Monica D. Livingston

Start showing up as YOU and watch what happens... with Monica D. Livingston

In this episode, Monica D. Livingston, in-demand global speaker, hall of fame athlete and two time winner of Comcast SportsNet “Funniest Sports Celebrity in Washington" joins me to discuss how to embrace your own unique power to build your reputation and your business. 

We talk about how to overcome fear and imposter syndrome when delivering your unique magic to the world and trusting that YOU are enough. By staying true to yourself and finding a platform that works for YOU, you can be wildly successful, even in high pressure situations, like, in Monica’s case, speaking in front of 1000s of people on a regular basis. 

And get this… Monica has never applied for a speaking gig in her entire career… and yet… she continues to get job after job. She has spoken to tens of thousands of people about hard topics like diversity and inclusion in the workplace. She gets hired to show up and be herself.

This is Monica’s story.

Unlearn your corporate training and step into your voice.

Unlearn your corporate training and step into your voice.

When it comes to building your personal brand through thought leadership, articles, podcasts and media interviews, everyone asks the same question: What am I going to say?

And this is hard, because when you spend decades working for other people inside bigger companies, you are taught to communicate a certain way. I know this isn't what you want to hear, but to start building your personal brand, you have to be yourself, talk more like you would with your friends, and less like you would in the boardroom.

You have to get comfortable with leaving your corporate training at the door and letting your own personality shine.

On this episode, I talk about the importance of finding your own voice and using it — at first in small ways, like on LinkedIn. I give you an example of how to share a job announcement in a way that feels real and authentic to you, but also showcases your unique expertise and begins to build your personal brand.

The ugly part of your success story is what makes it beautiful.

The ugly part of your success story is what makes it beautiful.

In last week’s episode, I interviewed Elizabeth Eichhorn, a former business coach of mine and fellow entrepreneur. I brought Elizabeth onto the show to share the story of her first business and talk about some of the big moves she made along the way that led her to where she is today.

What I didn’t know going into the chat was that Elizabeth’s first business, Mary Lee Cookies, an early player in the Gluten Free food business – actually failed. And I’m not sure Elizabeth was planning to share that with me on her episode… but she did, and she found the courage to be real about it.

What happened after Elizabeth shared these details was quite magical… The story of her failed business generated emotion… She dug deeper. She spoke of the reality of her personal life at the time… And she talked about the deep sense of loneliness she felt even as she was on the brink of success.

Women in business, does this resonate?

Sharing only the good parts of your story sounds like the right thing to do to make people buy into whatever it is you are selling… products, services, a promotion, a new role… and I can tell you this: while it definitely feels SAFER to stash away all the less magical moments… it is those ugly parts of your story that you actually NEED to share in order to connect with people.

People want real. They want to know what really happened. And what you did next? And how that felt? That is what good storytelling is all about. It turns out that a lot of the time, the ugly parts are what make your story beautiful.

In this episode, I’m going to dive deeper into my interview with Elizabeth Eichhorn and talk about some of the GEMS from her story.

Failure may be a necessary evil in your greater success story... with Elizabeth Eichhorn

Failure may be a necessary evil in your greater success story... with Elizabeth Eichhorn

As an entrepreneur, you probably LOVE your business. You may be SO in love with it… SO obsessed with it... that you’re missing the signs and signals telling you you’re headed for a breakdown. When things start to fall apart around you… how do you regain your balance without losing EVERYTHING? 

In this interview with Elizabeth Eichhorn, serial entrepreneur, business coach and leader of the Slow Business Retreat, we go to ALL the places as she shares the story of her first failed business and delivers her sage advice for entrepreneurs looking for balance, fulfillment and profit.

Spoiler alert: Even if you walk away from your business… Even if you take leave or shut down completely… you will not lose everything. You’ll retain the knowledge and the experience and carry them with you to the next thing… and the next thing… and every business you build after that. Trust me.

Failure is only temporary. It is a simple hurdle in a much greater success story... and we have Elizabeth's story to prove it. 

Grab yourself a warm beverage... coffee, tea, or if you're feeling adventurous... a mug of hot water... ;) and get cozy with Elizabeth and I on this episode of The WINS Podcast.

How do you find confidence when you don't have experience?

How do you find confidence when you don't have experience?

Sharing your stories requires confidence… publishing an article, doing an interview, delivering a keynote. But what about when you’re just getting started? When you’re doing something for the very first time? How do you find the confidence to do the thing when you’ve never done it before?

Let me give you a hint… it has two syllables and starts with the same letter as confidence.

In this episode, I dive deeper into my interview with Emily Jaenson and talk about the tactics she used to cultivate confidence when she pitched and crushed her very first keynote then went on to make it a constant revenue stream.
