The True Power of Empathy

I've recently had numerous friends go through some tough life challenges. I never use to be that someone that would extend my help or even be there for friends and family i time of need. Over the past several years, I have found myself becoming that one friend that everyone came to in time of need. I've asked many of my friends why and they all have told me that I'm easy to speak to and that I don't ever interject or tell them what to do. Frankly, I LISTEN! Empathy is something that was very difficult for me to learn voluntarily. Honestly, I became more empathetic by accident. I care dearly about my close friends and family. I realized one day that I never had anyone there for me when I went through tough times. I did it all on my own. I HATED IT! In this episode, I talk about how to become more empathetic and a few do's and don'ts. I hope you learn something from this episode and able to practice on your own friends and family. Enjoy!

Episode #3: Entrepreneurship Sucks! Why We Still Do It

In this episode, I talk about creating value for 'you' as a personal brand. Building a personal brand and creating a more valuable ‘you’ can have a positive effect on your personal and professional life. Think about the ways that companies do this. Highly caffeinated marketing teams sit in rooms, poring over logo design, advertising collaterals and their next tweet, so that they can present their company in an attractive, effective and appealing way. In every message and every visual, customers need to see the brand’s identity shining through. So, why should it be any different for you?

Consumers are trusting individuals more than brands; the level of trust and integrity that you can get from an individual can seem lost within a massive, global conglomerate. If you want to freelance, consult or increase sales for your company then creating an investible personal brand will make you stand out.
