We chat about building a personal brand alongside a full-time job, why personal branding really matters in the corporate world and the practical steps Urmi took to establish hers without burning out. Urmi also shares the impact of her book, common personal branding mistakes she sees time and time again, and why consistency - and embracing who you are - makes all the difference. Let’s get stuck in.
