In this episode, I sit down with my CEO coach, Nickie Froiland, for an empowering conversation about personal branding, leadership, and embracing discomfort for growth. We delve into the difference between building influence and creating a personal brand, discussing how authentic branding leads to lasting success. Nickie shares her own challenges and commitments to step into the spotlight to amplify her impact and help others grow.

We also reflect on overcoming perfection paralysis, leveraging social media to align with core values, and the importance of staying uncomfortable to achieve personal and professional breakthroughs. Whether you’re a business owner, coach, or someone striving for the next level, this episode will inspire you to take bold action.
