Big Deal Energy (n.): The confidence of knowing exactly who you are, owning your quirks, and communicating your authentic self unapologetically.
The leaders and brands standing out are not polished or predictable; they are authentic, memorable, and a little or a lot weird – it’s why you remember them.
BDE shows you how to embrace the messy, imperfect, quirky parts of yourself—not as obstacles to overcome, but as your greatest assets.
3 Sessions + Your Big Deal Brand Box
We’re going to ditch all the outdated ideas you have about how you think you should be showing up—all the rules, the limitations, and the version of you that’s just getting by.
Then you’re gonna define your Big, Hairy, Audacious Goal(s) (BHAG). We’re going big, real big. You’ll wrap up Module 1 with a clearly defined BHAG, a solid understanding of what’s been holding you back, and practical ways to finally kick imposter syndrome to the curb.
Your story is more than a resume; it’s the experiences that shaped you, the hard things you survived, the weird details making you memorable. We’ll dig into all of it—and then reframe the parts you’ve been apologizing for. We’re going to uncover where your passion and skills come together in one big happy MeetCute.
Reframe your quirks as competitive advantages and build an authentic narrative showcasing your Big Deal Energy.
How are you currently showing up? Define what’s working, what’s not, and where there are gaps. Determine where your Big Deal Energy shows up, who you need to be in front of, and what you need to be doing to reach your BHAG.
Be in the right places, consistently, as yourself – board involvement, event attendance, content creation, relationship building, and eliminate the distractions; if it doesn’t serve the goal, it doesn’t make the plan.
You’ve been conditioned to blend in, to not make waves, and to sound like everybody else. You introduce yourself like a business card, your LinkedIn reads like it was written by a robot, and you keep your story tucked away cause it’s status quo…it’s not like anyone around you is doing it any differently.
When you own your quirks, show up authentically, and give without expecting, the good comes your way. The things making you different aren’t liabilities; they’re your competitive edge. Flip the script, so the people with half your talent and brains stop getting the space meant for you.
It’s time to get uncomfortable and define what makes you unique, quirky, and weird…cause that’s your Big Deal Energy.
The How
The QUIRKS methodology was created by me to go deep (real deep) into personal brand development. It guides you through: Questioning the status quo, Uncovering the big hair audacious goal (big, real big), Identifying your weird and remarkable, Reframing your story so you stand out, Knowing your value, and Showing up as yourself…consistently and authentically.
People need to hear what you have to say, and if you’re not telling your own story, someone else is writing it…badly.
Who is it For?
Individuals who know they have something valuable to offer but struggle to articulate it, leaders ready to show up more authentically, entrepreneurs who want to stand out, and anyone who wants to amplify and monetize their personal brand.
About Bode
I’ve been exactly who I am my entire career – ADHD with OCD tendencies, iced red wine drinking, f-bomb slipping, stray dog rescuing…and I became a Forbes Top 200 PR firm doing it, not despite my quirks, but because of them. Recognizing my Big Deal Energy is how I built an award-winning business, coaching program, and positioned myself as a thought leader.
