À propos de cet audio
Bravery in the trades isn’t just about the work-it’s about showing up, telling your story, and owning your voice.
In this episode of The Craft & Calling, host Christene Marie sits down with Todd Weyandt, marketing leader and host of the award-winning Bridging the Gap podcast, to explore the truth about personal branding in the trades - and why courage, storytelling, and authenticity matter more now than ever.
Todd breaks down how every business owner, operator, and trades professional already has a personal brand… the question is whether you’re shaping it intentionally or letting others define it for you. From reframing failure as innovation to building trust through vulnerability, this conversation is a blueprint for becoming a leader people actually want to follow.
🔍 WHAT WE TALK ABOUT- Why every trades professional already has a personal brand
- The difference between humility and hiding
- How to reframe failure as a superpower
- Why people connect with people, not companies
