293: The True Value of Your Personal Brand with Monique Bryan

293: The True Value of Your Personal Brand with Monique Bryan

We’re continuing our podcast theme for this quarter on “Wealth” with this episode on the true value of your personal brand.

You’ve most likely heard about the importance of understanding your personal brand and how you’re perceived by others.

Your personal brand stays with you no matter if you change jobs, businesses, careers, or industries.

The power of your personal brand is that you *can* shape it.

My guest is Monique Bryan, who runs a successful personal brand consultancy that helps established professionals amplify their industry credibility and use their personal brand and visual online presence to become an in-demand business leader.

Even if you think you know a lot about personal branding, you will learn something new in this conversation (I know I did!).

Monique and I talk about:

  • How she got started in the fashion business and the pivot she made
  • Her philosophy of “build it backwards” when thinking about your personal brand
  • Cultivating relationships, assets, and legacy
  • Cleaning up your digital house
  • What happens when someone damages their own brand
  • Monique shares publicly for the first time what she would love to do with her business

If you want to speak more but you’re not sure where to start or your efforts haven’t produced the results you want, I’m hosting a live online workshop called “Become Bookable: How to Get Speaking Invitations” on Wednesday, April 15th.


A lot of brilliant women assume they just need to pitch themselves more. But the real reason speakers get invited isn’t because they pitch harder — it’s because they’re positioned as bookable.
