Spartan Leadership Warriors continue to lead 2022 strong with discovering, creating, and owning our personal brand in February.
Many times people create their personal brand based on how others will perceive them or to gain outer influence. However, our goal was to explore our personal brand for one reason only - to walk in our destiny and live life on our terms! It takes courage to examine one self and find inner strength to makes changes based on personal choice.
Webster dictionary describes personal branding as promoting of a product or service by identifying it with a particular brand. Google's definition of personal branding is making a conscious and intentional effort to create or influence public perception of one's credibility, differences from others, and industry authority.
Spartan Leadership Institute describes personal branding as living authentic and being true to yourself.Your personal brand is living our personality, beliefs, boundaries, actions, interests, and social involvement.
The question to explore is does you current personal brand align with who you are striving to be and your legacy?
She is clothed with strength and dignity and she laughs without fear of the future - Proverbs 31:25
The Spartan Leadership Warriors completed an activity that allowed us to reflect on our personal brand and identify if we were living authentically.
Activity Challenge 🔥 ask yourself two questions:
- How do you see yourself?
- How do you think others see you?
This activity challenged us to take time out of our busy lives and stop to reflect how we would describe ourselves and ponder on our personal brand. The uniqueness of this activity was to also describe how we think others view us. This part can either humble or exaggerate the imagine we create for ourselves.

✞ Just give me Jesus moment: we spend so much time thinking about what we wear, how we look, material things, what we post online and not realizing we are creating our personal brand unintentionally. A gentle spirit whispered and said, "with everything you have going on what are you doing for God?"
Give all your worries and cares to God, for he cares about you - 1 Peter 5:7
Activity Challenge 🔥 ask 3 of the closest people in your life how they would describe you (family, friends, or co-workers).
It's important to remember how others view us does not define us. The goal is to give us insight if we are living our personal brand.
The activity challenges are not for the weak or faint of heart. Spartan Warriors challenge ourselves to grow stronger. However, warrior affirmations build our mental toughness and reminders us that we are not the ordinary. We are the extraordinary.
The conclusion of the both activity challenges will empower, redirect, or confirm we are living life authentically and on our own terms.
My personal experience exploring my personal brand and completing the activity challenges empowered me to live life boldly. It reminded me that I'm unique and the world is a beautiful place. It also helped me to learn to take how others view me lightly because their lens are a reflection of their personal brand. In this case, if others don't enjoy my company then it's time for me to exercise my boundaries and surround myself with things, people, and moments that support my higher self.
I can do all things through Christ who strengths me - Philippians 4:13
In conclusion, Spartan Leadership Institute encourages women warriors to live life authentically, put God first, and to live a life on your own terms that creates a legacy.
