Hi guys, and welcome back to the show. You're listening to style your minds. I'm your host, Carol Allwell, and I am popping in with a quick update for you today to let you know that tomorrow Tuesday, October 5th at 4 p.m. Eastern. I'm going to be hosting a free mini masterclass, and I would love you to come. It's absolutely free. I am dropping the link to sign up in the show notes, and it's going to be all about personal branding and confidence and what it takes to become iconic.

If you've been listening to the show for the past couple of weeks, you know that I'm going to be doing a huge live workshop slash course called iconic. It's launching October 13th of this month.

And I thought that I would do a little free mini masterclass sneak peek slash suare champagne filled little happy hour and just to kind of jump on and talk to you guys and share what it's about. I know I've been kind of, you know, talking about it on the podcast and on Instagram.

But I think the best way for you to kind of get an idea of what is involved in the course is to jump on and get a taste of it and be in my energy.

Be in the energy of other women, other like minded women who are all on the same mission as you are to build a really strong and impactful personal brand to make a fuck ton of money doing it to enjoy yourself to live a fulfilled life.

You know, this month marks the seven year anniversary of me quitting my full time job at MTV and moving into this world, the champagne diet world, what I've created here over the past I've been working on for over the past 13 years.

But seven years ago, I left that job and I moved into this space and I'm friends with a lot of people that I worked with at MTV, very good friends with a lot of those people and I had a dream about some of them last night.

And one of them in my dream, my friend, Bree, shout out to Bree if you're listening. Bree told me to come to this meeting and it was basically like a meeting of all MTV alumni and people who used to work for the company and you know, she's like, you should really be there.

And in my dream, I went and I showed up and I didn't recognize anybody in the room.

And I was looking around and I'm like, this just feels off. Like, why am I here? Why am I even here? And they were talking about things that just were so like beyond, you know,

what I had known about the company and the people and I felt very disconnected from everything and I was trying to say hi to people and nobody recognized me. It was just the weirdest dream.

And I left and it was I remember looking at my watch. It was nine o'clock in the morning and I was in Brooklyn for some reason in the neighborhood I grew up in, which also was kind of symbolic right because I don't live there anymore. I live in Manhattan now.

But in my dream, I just was walking away from that life and I woke up feeling like this really strange feeling like I've come so far.

It was a good feeling, but an odd feeling to be back there. And I was I was thinking about it. I'm like, it's a Monday morning. I'm getting up and I'm doing what I love.

Like I was off to go work out with my trainer and you know, I'm in my apartment, this beautiful space and I'm picking out my clothes for the day and I'm creating content.

I've got a new client starting with me today and I'm just really, really excited about life.

And I really that dream kind of put me back for a moment to that place that where I was when I didn't really know what I was doing, but I knew that I wanted more.

And I was creating more, right? I was following that hunch. I was following my intuition. I was following my passion and I didn't know I was building a personal brand at the time.

I didn't know I was really like creating this other world for myself that would one day be what it is now.

But I got to thinking about how we all deserve that. You know, I talked to so many of my friends and you know, people that I know that are in jobs that they don't love and they have an idea for something that they want to create

or maybe they're side hustling or in a corporate job and they've got this other business going and they just, they're lacking something.

They're lacking that, they're lacking the clarity really on what it is that they want to do.
