You can write the perfect bio, ace your intro, and still walk into a room where someone already made up their mind about you.

In this episode, we talk about the tension between your personal brand — the version of you that you want people to see — and your reputation — the version they pass around when you’re not in the room.

We get honest about where we’ve fumbled, where we’ve overpromised, and how we’re learning (sometimes the hard way) that what people feel about working with you matters as much as what you can deliver.If you’ve ever thought, “Wait — is that really how I came across?”… this one’s for you.

🎧 Listen for practical tips, real-life stories, and a reminder that managing your reputation isn’t fake — it’s just another form of care.
