What do you stand for?
What do you value?
What do you want to be recognized for?
A mission statement isn’t just a sentence - it’s a compass.
It reflects your values, your voice, and what you stand for in the hospitality world.
In this video, I explain why creating a mission statement is essential for hoteliers, how I tied my values into mine, and how it guides how I show up in my career and beyond.
🎯 What you’ll learn:
This is your invitation to define what you live by.
Your story is your superpower.
In hospitality, connection is everything - and the best way to connect is by being real.
In this video, I talk about why sharing your story is one of the most powerful tools in building a personal brand as a hotelier. Whether you're just starting out or leading a team, your experiences matter.
🎤 What you’ll learn:
There’s no perfect formula. Just a decision to begin.
Showing up can feel uncomfortable.
You’ll hear the inner critic - telling you not to post, not to share, not to try.
Silence it.
Pick a platform.
I started with LinkedIn and Instagram.
Choose 1-2 and commit. Start sharing your story. Start engaging with other thought leaders. Repost, comment, add value. You are building your personal brand with each small action.
Don't wait for perfect.
Don’t worry about likes, follows, or reposts—just show up.
You don’t need a big platform, a fancy title, or years of experience to give back.
You just need to share what you know.
Here are a few ways to do that:
— Post what you’ve learned recently
— Talk about what’s happening in your industry
— Share advice for future hoteliers
Your network will appreciate it. And those just starting out? They’ll remember you.
In this episode, I dive into what it means to show up for others:
💡 Approaching someone standing alone at a tradeshow
💡 Expanding your network by making real connections
💡 Celebrating wins and engaging on social to elevate others (and yourself)
One moment that stood out to me was from my conversation with Marisa Obando—she treats tradeshows as a space to build friendships, not just contacts. That mindset can change everything.
Your brand isn’t just what you say—it’s how you connect.
Let’s be the kind of leaders who lift others up.
