TAKEAWAYS
Our "authentic self" changes based on the context that we’re in.
There are many roads to a destination, but they differ in timeline and effectiveness
You must make decisions that align with who you are on the inside.
A well-shaped personal brand helps you scale your ideas, build meaningful relationships, and create the impact you crave.
An established personal brand isn’t a prerequisite to contributing and getting to know the community you want to build or contribute to.
LinkedIn is NOT a glorified resume platform or virtual conference; it's a place to be social and create a world of opportunities.
