In this episode, I share my honest experience with building a personal brand—what’s worked, what hasn’t, and why ditching polished AI content for raw, authentic storytelling has made a massive difference. After building multiple businesses, I realized engagement and trust don’t come from perfectly produced videos or AI-written captions—they come from showing up as yourself, listening to your audience, and playing the long game.

💡 Key Takeaways:

• Raw, authentic content outperforms polished AI “slop.”
• Your story, struggles, and behind-the-scenes matter more than perfection.
• Ask your audience what they actually need help with—and create content around that.
• Engagement isn’t about vanity metrics—it’s about real conversations, replies, and relationships.
• Play the long game—trust and brand growth are built over time, not overnight.
