Description

In this episode, I share a serendipitous moment sparked by Patagonia founder Yvon Chouinard’s book, highlighting the power of authenticity in marketing. Too often, business owners struggle with marketing because they’re trying to craft a “perfect” or “unique” voice, rather than simply being themselves. Drawing from real client conversations, I explain how the most effective content comes from genuine experiences and actual pain points — not from forced formulas.

Key topics covered:
- The importance of authenticity over perfection in marketing
- Why trying to be someone you’re not makes marketing harder
- Using real client challenges as the foundation for valuable content
- The value of consistency in building authority
- An invitation to join my one-to-one coaching programme, designed to help you market with confidence and authenticity

Listen in to discover why showing up as your true self is the key to sustainable, effective marketing.
