UNAPOLOGETIC

Gathoni Ngumba, Community Manager of Afripods was recently on the #Impact podcast with Regina Larko. Gathoni was asked to name three people who inspire her in the way they do community. Fortunately, I made the list. Gathoni said,


"Second Chulu Chansa. She is the Founder of the Africana Woman Network. She has managed to do a tour around her country with her podcast. And then she went into doing Masterclasses and now she is creating a Festival all on her own. The thing I admire about her is that she doesn't ask for permission to create spaces for people she thinks matters. And I think her unapologeticness is something that I really admire."

Firstly what an honour to have my Personal Brand reflected back to me so eloquently.

Secondly I hundred percent agree with Gathoni. Too often, women are waiting for permission to Live. To go after their dreams. To let their genius shine. If there is one thing I have learned is that no one is going to give you a platform. You have to build it and step onto it. You have got to be willing to believe in yourself before anyone else understands your purpose. You can make the choice today to be Unapologetic about your desires, gifts, weaknesses, and choices.


In addition, a spirit of humbleness has been our inheritance but has certainly not served us well. Because we fail to be confident in our gifts. We fail to tell people what we excel at which are facts because we are afraid to be seen as bragging. We fail to put ourselves in the public forum because we are afraid of rejection. Honey the gift you have is meant to be given to others and not hidden away. That is why it is called a Gift.


The other thing that I see is that yes you may have started to share your gift eg authored a book. However, you have not packaged yourself in a way that people can effectively find you and engage with you. This makes me sad because I believe your gift can support you now and in the future. I am not saying quit your corporate job. I am saying we need to let go of the archaic notion that whatever stems from our creativity is not valid because you did not go to university to get a degree for it. Your creativity can be a source of multiple streams of income and you can have fun doing it.


Can you tell how passionately I feel about this?


This is precisely why I am currently taking on Clients who are ready to amplify their Personal Brand. Please note Everyone has a Personal Brand. Whether it is working in your favour is your choice. By being intentional you can:

  • create more streams of revenue

  • create impact in people's lives

  • get so much joy because what you do has purpose and certainly does not feel like work


Work with me one on one to create your customised Personal Brand Blueprint. This includes:

  • One weekly meeting (1hr)

  • Duration: 6 months

  • Platform: combination of direct calls, zoom or in person where possible 


We will cover:

  1. Your Image - Your image is your calling card, your moment to capture first impressions, it's the feeling you leave people with long after you have left their presence.

  2. Monetisation Strategy - Have you trapped yourself in a box because you believe social media is your only marketing tool? And now it feels like you are constantly working for the gram instead of it working for you. Good news, there is much more to marketing and we can figure out what the right combination is for you.

  3. Marketing Strategy - Do you know that your one gift / talent / skill can bring in multiple streams of income? It is time to develop these systems

  4. Wealth Management - Always have an exit plan. Change is inevitable so plan for the days when you won't be working at the level you are currently working on.

  5. Mindset Coaching - Winning and success happen in the mind first! You have to master the battlefield of your mind. So as when bombs like self doubt, fear, information paralysis, imposter syndrome keep dropping around you, you can be agile and quickly dodge them.


Let's get to work. All you have to do is either call +260978470395 or email africanawoman@gmail.com


I am so excited to work with you on your Personal Brand. One of my stubborn traits is that I see you in your fullest potential and I refuse to allow you to choose mediocrity. Therefore, I am willing to work with you if you are willing to be Unapologetic...


Chulu
