If you’ve ever been told to “just be yourself” online and thought, cool but... who even is that?—you are going to love this episode.

This week, we’re joined by the wildly magnetic Justin Schuman—Broadway star turned brand coach and authenticity whisperer who’s on a mission to humanize your personal brand and help you show up as you, not just a curated version of you. Did we mention human is in his last name?

In this conversation, we go beyond the buzzwords and break down what authenticity actually looks like in real life and online. Justin shares how uncovering who you are (and how you want to show up) is the real work behind building a brand that connects—and why your “unpolished,” in-progress self is often the most powerful thing you can share.

So if you've been overthinking your content, or why you even need a personal brand, you will not want to miss this conversation!

Think building authority online means talking about your success? Think again.

Jason shares the biggest mistakes real estate agents (and entrepreneurs in general) make when trying to build credibility, the tiny tweak that transforms your marketing from “just another sales pitch” to a compelling story, and why showing your value is always more powerful than telling.

We also dive into:

• The simplest way to generate referrals without feeling salesy
• Why social media works best when it feels human
•  The easiest 90-day strategy to become a market expert (and build confidence FAST)

Make sure to tune in til the end when Jason gives a masterclass in how to make the ask—without making it awkward when answering a Not Nice. Advice submission from a self-proclaimed "networking wallflower"
