    The Adventurer | An Interview with Liza Tagliati of Boarding for Breast Cancer

    Living Your Passion with Action Sports Aficionado Liza Tagliati

    >
     

    In this episode of Toast Meets Jam, I catch up with Liza Tagliati, marketing manager for Boarding for Breast Cancer (B4BC) a non-profit foundation dedicated to providing breast cancer education, prevention and support programs for young people and the action sports community at large.

    Liza studied Biology at the University of San Diego though soon realized that pursuing a career in medicine wasn’t her life’s calling. After graduation, she took a year off before getting her Master’s Degree in Marketing  to work at a ski resort in Tahoe and soon came to realize that she wanted her love for boarding to become her career.

    She talks with me about how she was able to take her passion for sports and make it part of her life every day– both in and out of the office– and offers her advice to other young women who are looking to do the same.

    For more from Liza you can catch her sharing her best boarding tips on Dirtbag Darling where she serves as their snow ambassador or follow her on Instagram @LizaTags.

    A Toast to you and Liza too,

    Jen

  • Using Social Media to Strengthen Your Personal Brand

    Using Social Media to Strengthen Your Personal Brand

    5 Steps to bring your personal brand to life through social media

    social media

    At the dawn of the era of social media there seemed to be a mixed reaction of excitement and fear over this uncharted territory. Excitement over the doors these new online outlets were providing for us to connect with each other to an extent yet unknown. Fear that this meant our personal lives were forever meant to be on display. For years it seemed that the only message circulated about the proper use of social media was a warning cry about the detrimental affects our profiles could have on our careers and professional lives. We’ve been warned to watch what we post in fear that our employers- current or hopeful- could be scanning our pages to uncover our faults.

     

    I believe the tides are now turning in favor of social media. Time has brought a new understanding of how to leverage these powerful platform s and use them to our benefit. While it is important to monitor what parts of your lives you want publicly broadcast, your social profiles can also serve as the best way for you to show off the best parts of yourself. The message is no longer a warning about what not  to do but rather a chorus of advice around what to do to leverage social media to your greatest favor.

     

    In part 2 of our series on building your personal brand we’re taking a look at how you can use social media to most effectively- you guessed it- build your personal brand . With the right know-how you can turn your social presence into a machine that strengthens your personal brand and allows you to tell your story to the world. We’ve got 5 simple steps you can take today to get started.
