She is a tenured member of Entrepreneurs’ Organization (EO) and is presently part of the Global Member Liaison Committee having served in local, regional, and global leadership roles. I was born in the Soviet Union – the ultimate land of extreme censorship. When I moved to Canada at the age of 16, I remember acutely feeling that I was finally free of censorship, able to speak my mind and express myself freely. I was wrong. As a newcomer, I was heavily accented and, as much as I wanted to speak up and speak out, few were interested in hearing what I had to say. It took me years to find my voice, reclaim it, and scale its reach. It also took me years to realize how many people self-censor. The fear of judgement, the impostor syndrome, and the lack of clarity of what to say, how, and when. I launched my firm called Brand of a Leader to help people find their voice and scale its reach. I do it through the power of personal branding.
