Hi this is Namita Ramani. I’m thrilled to share this week’s episode of The Forward Thinking People Podcast, featuring none other than Kelly Lundberg—an international keynote speaker, personal brand strategist, and best-selling author. I knew Kelly was the right fit for our podcast after attending her “Become a Confident Speaker” workshop through my mastermind group, Female Fusion. Her approach to amplifying confidence on stage was invaluable, but it was her insights on the power of personal brand and self-investment that truly resonated with me.
In this episode, Kelly dives into her journey from a fashion-obsessed teen to launching her business in the Middle East and eventually building a career as a top personal branding expert. She shares how working as a holiday rep at 18 gave her skills that carried her through some of the toughest moments in business.
A few gems she discussed include:
-
The Value of Investing in Yourself: Kelly explains why her first big step in business was hiring a coach, and how learning from experts saved her time and led to sustainable growth.
-
Building a Personal Brand Beyond Social Media: Kelly clarifies what it truly means to be a personal brand strategist, beyond just having a strong social media presence, and the importance of consistency.
-
Creating Opportunities and Pivoting: From Cyprus to Dubai, Kelly’s career is a testament to creating your own path and not letting setbacks define you.
I hope this episode brings you as much insight and inspiration as it did for me. If you’re looking to grow, lead, or make a lasting impact, this conversation is for you.
