Hi friends,
Today’s issue makes it two months since I started this newsletter 🎉
In honor of this exciting milestone, I’ve added a new section to this newsletter. Now, a whopping 80% of you co-signed that you are “an ambitious early to mid-career professional building your personal brand to land remote roles with global companies.”
So, this new section will be geared towards helping you on your personal branding + career growth + remote work journey.
It’ll be all the stuff you’re familiar with, plus some tidbits as they come to me.
I hope you find them helpful 🫶.
Best,
Tami

Put the “personal” back in personal branding
Have you been Ariel'd?
You know the symptoms:
You've traded your authentic voice for "professional speak" (hello, sea witch!)
Your LinkedIn posts sound like everyone else's
Reading your content makes you cringe because it sounds nothing like you
You can't point to a single post that truly reflects your personality
Sound familiar? Let's fix that.
Today, we're diving into three essential elements:
How to develop and maintain your authentic voice across platforms
A practical framework for balancing professionalism with personality
Real-world examples of successful personal branding that stays true to you
Let's look at how this works in practice:
Meet Frida, a product marketer struggling with the same challenge. She has the expertise and the certifications, but her LinkedIn content feels pretty stiff. Here's how she can transform her approach to posting:
Before: "Excited to announce the launch of our new marketing automation software. Key features include streamlined workflows, enhanced analytics, and improved ROI."
After: "Confession: I'm obsessed with marketing automation (yes, really!). Spent the weekend geeking out over our new software – it's going to be a game-changer for your lead generation. Let me know if you want a sneak peek! 😉"
The difference? Frida stops trying to sound "corporate" and starts being professional + being herself.
👀 Weekly recs to level up your brand
🎯 Action item: Choose one platform where you feel most "not yourself." Post three times using your natural voice. Track engagement. Compare it to your previous "professional" posts. Let the data guide you.

💡 Quick tip: Record yourself explaining what you do like you would to a friend (or call up a friend and do it for real). Transcribe it. That's your natural voice — use it as a reference point when writing your next post. I really like Oasis for this.
Remember: Your personality isn't unprofessional — it's your enchanting voice in a sea of sameness. Use it wisely! 🧜♀️
