Everyone has a personal brand. You have a personal brand with the people you work with, the people you love, the people who serve you your morning coffee and the people who you greet on your morning commute. Every single interaction we have builds a picture of who we are as a person - a personal brand. But what that personal brand looks like depends on whether or not you're willing to take control of your own narrative, or allow other people to write it for you.
