🙏 Grief, Loss and Showing Up as a Personal Brand Business Owner In Difficult Seasons (I’m Back)

Lifestyle Business School

This is a story about grief, loss and how to navigate it as a personal brand.
[Read the full blog post here].

Almost six weeks ago now, I lost my beautiful mum.

(It hurts to type that).

It feels like my security blanket has been ripped from under me.

I feel alone, exposed and honestly? Just so very sad.

Here’s the thing as a personal brand business.

Personal things happen.

They bleed into business.

And as a result, running a very front-facing business in challenging times feels extra challenging – something that has absolutely been my experience over the past while.

Today, I want to share a little about my experience navigating profound loss as a personal brand.

Helpful Resources:

Insanely helpful conversation:

Navigating Grief [ft Therapist Gina Moffa] – With Sam Vander Wielen. I resonated with so much of this. It talks about personal brand businesses in particular, and I listened twice.

Feeling seen:

Motherless Daughters – Grief support for mother loss. Simply scrolling through these has helped me a lot, the posts are real and reflect a lot of the things I think myself. Simply knowing I am not alone has helped immensely.

Questions and conversations with loved ones:

List of Questions for Interviewing Your Loved Ones – Brendon Burchard wrote this list of questions he asked his Dad.

Lucy Percy at Head and Heart Estate Planning sent me some Legacy of Love conversation starters (not sure if she is offering these, but her Instagram is useful also).
