If in the midst of frustration, you asked yourself any of these questions:

  • Why is a “popular” guide not giving me the branding solutions I’m looking for?
  • What is at the heart of a brand?
  • How important is the brand story to my brand?
  • Why are big companies trying to put on a personal “face”?
  • Do I need to control the narrative and build my personal brand?
  • How do I know what is “wrong” with my brand?

Then this episode is for you.

I had the privilege of having a conversation with Michelle Balaun, an international brand expert, where – with her fiery charisma – she took me on the journey of what it means to build a brand.

Michelle is making branding waves by recognizing there is no cookie-cutter answer to any branding question. Whether it is a large institution or a single entrepreneur, the approach needs a liaison to translate and re-communicate the brand. 

Her experience has been in the fashion industry for over 3 decades and she’s worked with countries from the Artic Circle to Africa. Michelle is an American expat who lived in Europe for 15 years and has a very unique perspective on understanding branding with consideration of culture, community, and diversity.
