Your brand is the only insurance policy you have.

Like I still remember the day when I met the CEO that could have opened any doors for me.

Gary Vee said that, like he said it better than I do.

Like, it's incredible.

He was also a venture capitalist and it took him five minutes to say, Lana, you have no clue where you want to go, right?

This is what I'm going to allow you to leap again and again.

Now, on top of this, I will say all the coolest opportunities and for mid to late stage career, especially when it's crowded, if you do want to land a job, if you do want opportunities, all the coolest things are only in the hidden market.

And I'm like,

Oh, darn.

So not only that I'm not doing myself a service, I'm actually becoming a red flag.

So the clarity is number one.

It's so, so, so important that you'll know what's next, even if it's a test, even if it's an experiment, but you know what you want to do.

It's who knows you that will bring opportunities to you.

That's the fast track.

then you're going to want to align the story according to where you're going, not where you are today.

So if you want the fast track, if you want a land of opportunities, if you want to play in the hidden market, this is where the portfolio career is.

Now it's with complete integrity.

We're not lying here, right?

But we're emphasizing the right things according to where you're going.

This is where the advising, the board seats, the co-founding teams, the executive things, the investment opportunities, the leadership retreats, right?
