I love everything about this post. I launched my personal brand almost five years ago and work in it daily. Started on LinkedIn and Instagram. Now, I’m here trying this out and am terrified. Nice to see I’m not alone. 🦋

Consistency. Making sure that my brand is showing up, every day in a consistent manner to build trust with the community I’m nurturing.

Respond to every single comment. It’s important for everyone to feel seen and heard. Engagement is key to building a community.

Keep going. Even when something falls flat, reminding myself that there is greater good in what I’m trying to accomplish.

This is a great post, thanks for sharing! I LOVED IT! I feel the same. I was focused on building my personal brand 10 years ago with an idea to launch a product in the future. Unfortunately, I stopped and only resumed recently.

I wrote about is in my Substack story called "How I Accidentally "Lost" a Decade" - https://substack.com/@alicova/p-151136354. The cost of a missed opportunity is greater than the fear. You just gotta breathe in, breathe out, and put yourself out there.

Thanks for this blog (and reminder)! Everytime I log into LinkedIn I get so overwhelmed by all the posts and noise so I'm heading back to your core values post to start from there...
