Ep 85: You have to look after number 1 with Nat Berman

The Purpose-Led Leadership Podcast

Nothing works unless you do.

Your family, your relationships, your business.

That’s why you need to look after yourself first to be able to best serve those around you.

In this episode I am joined by Nat Berman, who has lived by this rule in all areas of his life. He shares his views on the LinkedIn landscape after having built a successful personal brand from the platform.

He also discusses why finding the right people is important but not an easy process, and how this can impact your online presence as well as real world connections. Nat also shares how anxiety has affected him throughout his life and what has worked for him to manage it.
