Question: How important do you think it is to have a personal brand? As in, how you show up online, in person at work or at industry conferences… What do you want to be known for? In my opinion, it’s the secret to building and advancing your career, opening doors of opportunity, and getting one step closer to doing the work you actually love.
My special guest today is Tamika Brunetti and she’s simplifying how to uncover your #DigitalSwagger. That’s what she calls it and I love that spin… How you show up online (in a professional sense) that sets the tone for how people engage with you. So let’s talk about how to find your own swagger as you walk in the (proverbial) door the next time you’re on LinkedIn!
Here’s how.
My special guest today is Tamika Brunetti and she’s simplifying how to uncover your #DigitalSwagger.
We tackle and simplify all aspects of it, including:

- “But I’m an introvert and I really hate putting myself out there.” Tamika shares advice to those who tend to keep their private lives private.
- Where to begin to uncover your #DigitalSwagger.some text
- Define your why - what is the purpose, intent, and measurable goal?
- How to update your digital profile on LinkedIn in 30 minutes or less. She talks about the key elements to focus on first.
