SOLO: How to Use Your Vulnerability to Go Viral
“Your shit is your very best friend. It's your edge. It's actually your magic and it's time for you to finally embrace it.” – Jessica Zweig
In the Season 2 opener of the SimplyBe. Podcast, Jessica discusses how embracing your shit, i.e. all that emotional baggage you carry around, can not only help others feel less alone, but is also a powerful avenue for increasing your brand’s visibility. She talks about how sharing some of the toughest moments of her life helped her blog go viral.
Jessica also gives you tools for clarifying what you want to be known for with SimplyBe’s Hologram framework. Learn how to share for impact, not just spilling every dark secret in your closet.
Moving forward, Jessica is tweaking the format of the show. Expect new episodes that give you actionable steps to create your own personal brand.
