A couple years ago when we started this journey, we thought we would be simply proponents for personal branding as self advocacy. But something would not allow us to move forward with the launch. There was an internal block. And several set backs. And while we are still avid proponents of corporate professionals communicating their own authentic narratives, we are more than that. At The UP Collection, we firmly believe, when you are intentional about a purpose greater than yourself and are operating in your innate gift, flow is inevitable. And there are specific things that need to be cultivated in order for flow to be optimal and we want to be a contributor to giving you those tools, through both our unique content and through a curated catalog of the the content of others. Here are a few of the things we believe in and we hope will help you on your journey.

✅ Collective Reasoning: Just a blog that leads with reason and empathy.

✅ Read UP: News that may not be in your “echo chamber”, but facilitates awareness. Because when we know better, we have the opportunity to do better.

✅ Listen UP: We highlight some of the most prolific bridge building voices. Because we believe the most valuable ideas in this decade, build bridges between two sets of ideas that would not otherwise dovetail.

✅ Brand UP: Resources that will help you build your own authentic narrative. Don’t leave it to “Tom” or “Sally” to tell your story. They won’t get it right.

✅ Mix UP: Curated micro social events that will help you build relationships, while keeping health and safety first. LAUNCH DATE April 22nd!

✅ Get UP: Content for healing! Move around! Keep your mental and physical health front of Mind.

✅ TeeUP: T-shirts that say what you mean! 😎

✅ EatUP: We love a good meal and sometimes we pair it with wine!

✅ Pop UP: Commentary on pop culture, because sometimes what you need is an escape!

As of now, the space we are carving is just a shell (compared to our vision) but it’s evolving and our team can’t wait to deliver MORE! Imagine… a couple of years ago we thought this was about personal branding but the vision got BIGGER!
