Personal branding can feel cringeworthy. It’s also the reason I've consulted 100+ clients.✨

My secret isn't being special or connected, it's in showing up. With a recession on its way, it’s time you did too.

Here are 7 practical steps to get started.🎉

Instead of asking “does that make sense?”, try “is there anything I can clarify for you?”

This makes it less about *you* making sense and more about *their* understanding.

@CllrTerryJermy Congratulations, Terry! Thrilled for you and cheering you on.

Research shows that admitting you don’t know something actually makes people trust you more.

“I’ll find out and follow up.”
“I’m not sure - I’ll come back to you.”
“I think so, but I’ll double check.”

These aren’t statements of weakness, but creators of trust.

[Bianca Bass @BiancaBass]

Creativity’s biggest killer is fear of judgement.

To do our best work, we need to create cultures that encourage honesty, bravery and clarity.

We need to create brave spaces.

Safe spaces allow you to be who you are.

Brave spaces help you discover who you can become.

Daily practices to help you build your career and confidence:

Doubting your doubt

Examining the evidence behind your self-doubt - is it a fact or a feeling?

Knowing it’s often fear, not intuition

Befriending the worst-case scenario

Speaking to yourself like your best friend

Truly resting is about more than sleeping.

Creatively depleted? Go to a new gallery, talk or gig.

Socially burnt out? Spend quality time with people who energise you.

Sensory overload? Schedule a few minutes of silence.

Different cups need filling up in different ways. ✨

You’ve been living with Covid restrictions since March 2020, have barely had a break, the world is full of uncertainty, and you keep going anyway.

You are doing ✨so✨ much better than you think.

[Bianca Bass @BiancaBass]

A reminder to hold space for multiple truths.

You can be grateful for your job and need a new challenge.

You can love what you do and need a break from what you do.

You can always start over.

Good feedback means sharing exactly what you liked and why. Specificity builds creativity.
