Building a Successful Personal Brand from Scratch

Build a Successful Personal Brand

A personal brand is how a person presents themselves to the world and how others perceive them. Knowing your strengths, values, and passions is the key to building a strong personal brand. Understanding your strengths, weaknesses, values, and passions is the first step. Who are you and what makes you unique?

How to Build a Personal Brand?

“Where do I even start?”

This is the number one question that prevents people from building their dream businesses. It’s a dead-end question that I professed hundreds of times over a 10-year period.

You obviously don’t know where to start or you would have started.

The emotion behind this question is, what you want feels so far away from where you’re currently at, and to go from point A to point Z feels mind-blowingly overwhelming.

When we get into that stress response, we either freeze in analysis paralysis or procrastinate in order to get an instant sense of relief. After you’ve done that merry-go-round dozens of times, you are sick and ready to get off that damn ride.

But the problem remains…what do I do first to build this business? What should I focus on? How am I going to make money to pay my bills? Where are the clients going to come from?

Creating your Brand

The first thing is to determine what you would love to get paid to do, no matter how crazy it sounds. Ie. “ I want to get paid to travel.”

Second thing is to brainstorm all the ways you could get paid to travel. Ie. Become a concierge travel planner, start a travel vlog YouTube Channel, and create video travel guides for each country you visit that comes complete with an itinerary, must-see sites, restaurants, tips, etc…

Third thing is to determine whom you would love to have as your customers, and who would find your offers incredibly helpful and valuable. Ie. Busy rich entrepreneurs, solo female travelers

And if you‘ve been stuck long enough, then your next move is to join one of my programs to get you clear.

It’s easier than ever before in history to build a business, but you are making it hard by trying to go about it alone. I can say this with complete conviction because I did the same thing.

Time to make some moves if you really want what you say you want.

EP 765 The Final Shedding Required for the Biggest Quantum Jump of Your Life

If you have been feeling restless, emotionally raw, impatient with your old patterns, or like your current life suddenly feels too small, you are not imagining it.

As we close out the Year of the Snake and prepare to enter the Year of the Fire Horse on February 17, 2026, we are moving through a rare 60-year transition cycle associated with identity shifts, shedding outdated patterns, and stepping into a faster, bolder chapter of life.

This episode explores the final shedding required before a major quantum jump, why this phase can feel emotionally intense, and how to stop delaying the version of you that is ready to move forward.

Instead of surface-level motivation or spiritual bypassing, this conversation focuses on honest self-reflection, releasing emotional attachments, confronting resistance, and taking decisive action so you can move into your next level with clarity and momentum.

EP 764 2026 Glow Up Protocol: (The Boundaries) How to Set Healthy Boundaries Without Guilt in 2026

This episode of the 2026 Glow Up Protocol is all about boundaries.

Not the cold, harsh, push-people-away kind. But the kind that protect your energy, your peace, and your future.

Most high achievers think burnout comes from working too hard. The truth is much simpler: burnout comes from weak boundaries.

If you’ve ever felt exhausted, resentful, overwhelmed, or stretched too thin, it’s not because you care too much or work too much. It’s because you’ve been saying yes to things that should have been a no.

In this episode, you’ll learn how to set healthy boundaries without guilt, fear, or anxiety — and how to finally stop overgiving to the point of losing yourself.

EP 763 2026 Glow Up Protocol: (The Being) How to Feel Like Yourself Again and Become Who You’re Meant to Be in 2026

So many high achievers spend years trying to fix their life when what really needs to shift is their identity. If 2025 left you exhausted, disconnected, or wondering where the real version of you went, this conversation will feel like a homecoming.

True change in 2026 doesn’t come from doing more. It comes from becoming someone new on the inside first.

In this episode, we go beyond surface level self-improvement and get into the emotional, psychological, and energetic work of remembering who you actually are and deciding who you want to be next.
