#79- Simon Grainger: Your Brand Is Who You Are: Clarity, Alignment & Growth

In this episode, branding strategist Simon Grainger breaks down what a brand truly is — beyond logos, visuals, and catchy lines — and shows how the principles behind great branding apply directly to personal growth.

We explore three pillars every strong brand (and person) needs:
Clarity: knowing who you are and what you stand for
Alignment: matching your inner identity with how you show up
Evolution: growing without losing your core

Simon shares how to recognise when you’re performing instead of being authentic, how to reposition yourself with intention, and when it’s time to rebrand your life or career.

If you’re building a business, shaping a career, or redefining yourself, this conversation gives you a practical framework to strengthen your personal brand — starting today.

🎧 Listen now and start building a clearer, more aligned, and more intentional you.
