Welcome to Season 1, Episode 3 of the Intentional Influence podcast. In this episode, Nancy Michaels  and I discuss how Reignite and Reinvent Your Personal and Professional Brand.

Nancy Michaels has undergone a complete physical, personal, and professional reinvention that few people can claim, and it has made her uniquely qualified to help anyone desiring a reinvention of their own.

A nationally recognized coach, speaker and writer, Nancy is a Huffington Post contributor and has been featured in Entrepreneur Magazine, US News & World Report, CNN-FN, Fox, Inc.com, and The New York Post, among numerous other media outlets. For over a decade, she acted as Lead Consultant and interim host of Office Depot’s Web Café Series of online seminars for small business owners. She was also the first recipient of the Tom Peters “Wow Project Personified Award,” a Fast Company cover story for her reinvention work connecting Fortune 500 companies to small business customers. The author of Off the Wall Marketing Ideas (with co-author Debbi Kickham) and Perfecting Your Pitch, she at one time even worked as a publicist to Matt Lauer (co-host of the Today Show) and Tom Bergeron (of Dancing with the Stars fame) in their early days in Boston at WHDH-TV and WBZ-TV respectively.

But even as she was awarded the Small Businesswoman of the Year Award by the Women’s Business Enterprise National Council (WBENC) in 2005, Nancy found herself in a health crisis that would nearly twice end her life. In that year, Nancy underwent an emergent liver transplant and cranial procedure which brought with them significant medical complications that left her in a two-month coma. Waking up was a blessing; working to overcome the fallout of her ordeal was a battle.

In this episode, you’ll learn:

Why reinvention is not about abandoning your purpose
How to leverage your success while reinventing yourself
Make money even when you are in a coma
Become a contributor to high profile business publications
Connecting and securing the right sponsors for you and your clients
