Your personal brand isn’t just your LinkedIn profile or what you wear to work – it’s every micro habit, every interaction and the way you consistently make people feel. In this conversation with career strategist and Kinda Planned podcast host Alex Cuttiford, we unpack the real meaning of personal brand, how it connects to executive presence, and how to make it both authentic and strategic. We talk: values, first impressions, strengths and why action (not overthinking) is the secret to clarity and confidence.
