LET'S WORK TOGETHER
Life, as we know it, has changed. There's no doubt about that.
That's why daring to show up in your business,
being transparent and walking outside the line, right now,
has never been more important.
I help individuals recognize who they are (so others can) and be more daring in their thinking, actions and leadership.
Because let's face it. There's no point in holding back if
you want to live an inspiring life. That's what walking outside the line is all about.
I came away from an inspiration call with Van completely
super-charged with my mission. With Van, you’re experiencing branding therapy. Her innocuous questions reveal the answers reaching the core of your work. Then, as an entrepreneur, you move on with your business with clarity.

You can keep skimming
the surface of complacency or you can get 90 minutes of life-changing advice. Make a decision
and make it right.

Just like her promise to zing your brand, Van will spark your creative juices,
draw out your story,
play back your thoughts,
zone in on your essence, and it will be a blast:
A day when time will stand still and your unconscious takes form and meaning
with a clarity so obvious you’ll wonder how you didn’t see it.

READY TO SHOW UP IN BUSINESS?
If you're a curious, exuberant and open-minded entrepreneur who wants to reimagine your business and your world, let's work together and see what's the most meaningful, relevant and more purposeful direction for you and your brand!
Because I believe your brand's most important job is to fully express who you are, what you do, why it matters and why any of us should give a damn.
It all starts with SELF EXPRESSION. Pulling back the layers. And looking at what makes you tick. That's exactly how you'll feel the MOST recognized, valued and confident.
Ready to shift your thinking around your brand?
LET'S WORK TOGETHER 1:1
Inspiring. Intense. Intuitive. Exhilarating. Life Changing. Results oriented. If you're looking to have an outside perspective on all that you are doing around your organization or your business brand, let's talk.
Because if you're looking for life-changing and eclectic insights that regularly come up in these intensive branding programs, you're in the right place.
• 1 x 90-MIN POWER STRATEGY SESSION + BRAND AUDIT
If you're concerned your brand might be on autopilot, dysfunctional or perhaps irrelevant, you might have already fallen into the Dead Brand Walking trap. That's a serious issue...
So we'll focus on bringing a more vibrant and exuberant purpose back to the table. There's only one catch. You can't be risk averse! I work fast so I'll be right there to support you and work out what's holding you back AND what's making you tick. Email van@maryvandewiel.com to book a 30 minute chat to see if we're a good fit.
SOME AREAS WE CAN EXPLORE:
I. Creativity + Storytelling Learn how to tap into your own authentic story about who you are, what you do and why it matters.
2. Brand Behavior Become aware of the extent to which you show up in your business (like you mean it) and how that actually impacts your potential audience.
3. Master of Serious Play Build trust, bring compassion, a heightened sensitivity and the ability to put yourself in someone else’s position. This is about rethinking the tone of your voice.
4. Emotional Intelligence Share your story in a new, provocative way. It’s what helps people connect emotionally with you.
5. Meaning + Purpose Spot the difference between your Tangible Offering vs your Intangible Deliverables. What’s the difference? It will help explain your WHY.
6. Values Your values shape and define who you are. When you can identify and champion your own values (own, live, breathe them), people feel the difference.
LET'S FACE IT. THIS IS AN EMBOLDENING STRATEGY.
Creating an engaging & irresistible business brand – with a bold emotional quotient – has never been more critical. The good news? It's going to be exactly what leads people to want to know you, trust you, hire you and work with you.
AMP UP YOUR BRAND'S ENERGY QUOTIENT If it's lacking luster, we'll work out what kind of energy you can bring to the table. This will impact your visibility and credibility factor. We’ll look at what’s working and then, what’s shooting you in the foot. We’ll enhance the emotional intelligence behind your brand (EQ) because people today are longing to connect in a more transparent and authentic way.
Nimble, imaginative, passionate, expert, curious, truth teller – all things that elevate a brand engagement with Mary van de Wiel from utterly effective to truly fabulous.

Van is a one-off. Her creative energy is awesome. She has great style. But most importantly she really understands what makes brands tick — both on the inside and outside in
the market place.
When we worked together in Sydney, she was way ahead of the game, so it’s no surprise to me that today she is
an acknowledged leader and innovator in the global branding space.
