In this episode we focus on you. We know running a small business is tough! It takes a huge commitment and sacrifice. Then comes the head chatter and self-doubt.
In this panel discussion, we’ll take a look at stress, fear and limiting beliefs – what causes them and how you can identify, accept and disperse them to rebuild and replace them with what you need to get where you want to be.

Alan Wallner — President | Visionary, Conscious Branding
Alan Wallner is the president and visionary of Conscious Branding. When his middle child told him she was transgender, Alan had to deal with a lot of emotions and work to figure out what that meant for his daughter, himself and his family. This journey helped Alan to understand a different way of looking at the world and a different way of seeing people.
As a result, he realized that branding isn’t about physical attributes anymore. It’s about the inner presence of a person and of the team that creates the brand of a business – it’s the way we treat other people and work together to create something remarkable.
This is what we call Conscious Branding. It literally has changed how Conscious Branding works with companies, builds brands and aligns a greater purpose with beliefs, vision and action as the essence of the brand.
