Building a Body of Work with Brandy Agerbeck
Taking what you’ve learned and building your success around is one of the best ways to further your business. We all have skills and expertise that we’ve developed in doing the “thing” that we do, whether you are a coach or a bakery owner.
Brand Agerbeck is a graphic facilitator and a visual thinking pioneer. She stumbled into becoming a graphic facilitator and has been able to turn her unique skills into a successful business. She is a published author, Ted Talk presenter, and is finding joy and fulfillment in teaching others how to harness the power of visual thinking.
In this episode, we’re discussing how Brandy was able to build a successful life and business by following the cues and listening to her intuition.
Brandy’s method of visual thinking and getting everything out on paper allowed her to visualize and see the 24 techniques that went into her book, which later evolved into 9 modules and one-day workshops. The key is allowing yourself the space to be messy and do what works for you without being contained to a shape and model that isn’t for you.
“Give yourself the time and space to be messy, and push stuff around and let the shape of your work emerge.” -Brandy Agerbeck
After listening to all the wisdom and experience in this episode with Brandy, take a look at where you are. What are your skill sets and processes that led to your path of success and enables you to do what you do? Look at your methods and start visually thinking where you were stuck and how you got unstuck, the steps you went through, and how you can meet the needs of others and plant seeds that grow a bigger and more fulfilling business.
“It’s almost like figuring out how to repackage your knowledge in multiple ways so that it can connect with people in different realms, so you can broaden your audience” -Sandra Scaiano
