The word INFLUENCER has gotten a bad rap lately, mainly due to how it’s been represented and perceived in a vain manner. That doesn’t mean that people should roll their eyes every time they hear the word.

A word only has applied meaning. And ironically influence has the power to change the meaning of the word influence... see what I did there? 😄 You can influence a person, people, culture, society with KNOWLEDGE.

Knowledge is power but only when it is shared.

A knowledgeable society is one which will flourish for the greater good of humanity. We all benefit.

And in my observation there is a huge gap between generations as far as how that influence is applied and received.

We are living in such an interesting time. The media would have us believe that we are living in the worst times, and doesn’t it seem like that NEVER changes from their perspective?

Our biggest advantage currently is that social media levels the playing field when it comes to attention. So we better be using it to our advantage if we want to see the shifts we need in society. Positivity needs to be even LOUDER to drown out the noise.

Not only do I influence my community through my personal branding and content marketing strategy, but I am taking it a step further by creating and nurturing a community through connection and collaboration at monthly meetup group events I host.

Two months ago I launched my brand called The 904 Collaborative with my co-founder Justin Bordeaux. I saw a need, a gap, and a thirst for creative collaboration among my community of creative entrepreneurs. If this sounds like you and you are local to Jax, please join us! You can find us on meetup or for more active involvement, join our private Facebook Group HERE.

We are also putting the finishing touches on our website which will be fully live soon: www.the904collaborative.com

As a Creative Visionary if we don’t have access to the resources we need, we create it. We envision the future we want and then we get to work to influence those changes. I am humbled, thrilled and excited to impact, support, inspire and lead my local community to act on their big ideas and be a catalyst for their success.

In 2018, I declared that I would only do the things that set my soul on fire. I am a disruptor, a visionary, a thought leader, and a community builder who wants to make an impact and leave a legacy.

Isn’t it ironic that we spend our entire youth trying to fit in, and then as we age and with wisdom we realize we were never meant to fit in, we were BORN TO STAND OUT.

I go into more detail on the principles that will help you stand out as unique in the marketplace in my FREE 5 Day Email Series - Branding Like a Boss! If you want to set your brand and business up for success in 2019, get in on the action HERE.
