The Secret Behind Authentic Personal Branding w/ Mo Ismail| Ep 413
Saturday, 17 January, 2026
In this episode, Chris Do and Mo Ismail explore why personal branding works best when it starts with generosity rather than self-promotion. They break down how leading with genuine care lowers defenses, builds trust, and creates natural reciprocity in both business and personal relationships. Through real-world examples, the conversation highlights how making people feel seen and included is often more powerful than any pitch or tactic. The episode emphasizes that authenticity isn’t a strategy—it’s an operating system that shapes long-term connection.
