   Ep.86 Why personal Branding Wins

   Host Ivana Ivanek argues that personal branding is essential for small business owners who want to succeed in the future, because people choose who they feel aligned with even when products, prices, and reviews are the same. She addresses common concerns about social media and explains that consistency is simple but difficult because it requires showing up on hard days. From Curaçao, she shares how a long-time volunteer known as “Kunukuman” built a trusted brand over 20–25 years of weekly island cleanups; a well-funded couple then launched a large recycling initiative under his name, allowing the project to gain traction quickly. Ivana concludes that personal brands create belonging, trust, and flexibility to pivot offers, and she promotes her Magnetic Influence Accelerator group program for building visibility and a personal brand strategy beyond trends and constant posting.

   Ep.85 Grow Your Personal Brand Through Public Speaking - with Tricia Brouk

   Ivana Ivanek interviews speaking mentor Tricia Brouk about building thought leadership and a personal brand through public speaking. Tricia shares her journey from a global dance career to training leaders to amplify their voice and create legacy, explaining that stage fear never fully goes away—you learn to coexist with it by making the talk about serving the audience. They discuss how speaking boosts credibility, acts as advertising for your offers, and can generate significant ROI beyond speaker fees. Tricia advises starting public speaking now, vetting speaker coaches, and mastering delivery rather than winging it. She also explains why she wrote The Influential Voice and Being Smart Is Stupid, emphasizing wise leadership grounded in Buddha nature. Grab your favourite note taking device and get inspired!

Ep.85 Grow Your Personal Brand Through Public Speaking - with Tricia Brouk

Published 19 Aug 2026 · Transcript excerpt

[…] So how can we revisit wise leadership? Because there's a lot of smart leaders out there who are making millions and gazillions of dollars and who have big, very successful companies, but that doesn't mean that they're wise. That doesn't mean that there's not a wake of human dissatisfaction and suffering in there behind them. So I am a Buddhist and I thought, how can I bring in Eastern philosophy and Eastern point of view to leadership? Because that's how I lead through the lens of Eastern philosophy. This is not a book about becoming a Buddhist. It is not a religious book. It is a leadership book where I take you through nine pillars of how to lead from wisdom, your Buddha nature, instead of being smart, your ego nature. […]
