Frequently Asked Questions
Closing
Thank you so much for taking the time to invest in yourself with my personal branding/social leadership course. Once completed, it is up to you. First up, it’s important to find your starting place and get going. No one will do this for you, as you’ll understand once you finish this course.
I want you to succeed. Stepping up and owning our voice is a career requirement today. Don’t wait. The time is now, so believe you are awesome and have something valuable to say. If you doubt yourself, remember, self-belief is the biggest inhibitor to getting started for just about everyone. Find a buddy and make each other accountable. A buddy works really well.
I wish you so much luck. Keep following my blog www.andreatedwards.com where I’m writing about this stuff all the time and get in touch if I can help.
