Episode 18: Creating a Kick*ss Personal Brand with Tara Priolo

Branding.

We’re all supposed to do it, especially with our work being pushed mostly into the digital realm. 💻

Many of us don’t know how to create a brand. Many of us hate the idea of it because it feels fake or pushy or too “sales-y.”

Others, however, seem to find that perfect balance of business and self, and their branding feels personal and authentic, while also serving their business needs.

To learn how to find that balance for ourselves, we spoke with Tara Priolo, a Singer, Activist, Teacher, and Coach, who also has one of our favorite Instagram feeds. She’s warm, funny, and unapologetically herself on social media, and, frankly, she’s an incredible inspiration. ✨

Tara shares with us a little bit about her journey with social media:

  • where she found her “brand”
  • what used to scare her (and still does!)
  • why she believes integration is key
  • how she truly defines success on social media

We wholeheartedly recommend giving her a follow and learn how to make your branding serve YOU.
