275: Tanya Goodall Smith: How Introverts Thrive in the Photography Business

Hey lovely listeners! I am delighted to share my conversation with the fabulous Tanya Goodall Smith.

She has been on the show two other times and this time, she has a wonderful new book we are going to chat about, “The Introvert's Guide To Personal Branding: How To Put Yourself Out There Without Changing Who You Are”. It is a great read and wow, did it open my eyes to the power of introverts in the photography world! 

It also goes deep into the topic of personal branding, which is a great tool to be seen and known without having to do what the extroverts do to get positive attention.

You can trust her guidance as the founder of WorkStory Creative, an agency that helps introverts who are evolving their business create an elevated brand vision and bring it to life. She has 20 years of experience at the Fashion Institute of Design and Merchandising, designing for with international brands like HP, Disney and GUESS. And is a Brand Builder’s Group Certified Personal Branding Strategist. 

Key takeaways from our conversation:

• Introverts as Superstars: How introverted tendencies can be turned into advantages for success.

• Famous Introverts: Even some well-known performers and photographers are introverts who've learned to thrive.

• Overcoming Fear: The fear of being on camera or criticized can be tamed by focusing on the value you're bringing.

• Feel the Fear & Do It Anyway: Tanya's mantra for introverts looking to step out of their comfort zones.

• Power of Personal Branding: How a strong brand can communicate for you when you’re not keen on the spotlight.

As always, thanks for subscribing, commenting, and sharing your thoughts.
