Leadership isn’t about pretending you never fail; it’s about showing people how to handle it well.

When you admit you screwed up; it shows failure is part of life, which means instead of hiding mistakes, your employees start asking better questions, speak up sooner, and focus on growth instead of blame.

What I love about @8thirtyfour Happy Hour Hustle Podcast is the real conversations, my awesome wallpaper and that I get to talk to some of the coolest people.

I interviewed @alyshiahull about being yourself at work; the topic of her awesome @usatoday article and we got into leadership, failure and well everything else.

You personal brand (Big Deal Energy™️) is what you believe about yourself and sometimes you need to give yourself perspective, along with a visual.

Surround yourself with the powerful words, the encouragement.

It’s your constant reminder you are fierce, worthy and a motherf*cking badass.

Being a young professional in a competitive market is tough…but it isn’t impossible. Your personal brand (Big Deal Energy™️)Your network is your net worth, and there are no shortcuts to building one – so leave ChatGPT and Claude out of it. 

Emulate the leaders. Learn from those who have gone before. Stalk the people in the industry or job you want and study how they did it. They have a playbook they followed, learn from it, and then go forth and do.

You are only as good as your network and personal brand, so I’d suggest you build one.
