Redefining the Personal in Personal Branding
“Do we want to live our life thinking that we have these phases that just expire or do we just create our own. . . I really believe we create our own”
– Marina Girgis
Marina’s warm, insightful presence comes from her own experience being a MENA* woman, third culture kid, immigrant, and avid traveler.
Born in Egypt and raised in Kuwait, Marina learned adaptability from a young age. As a young adult, she went back to Egypt to study, but had to leave when the Egyptian revolution started.
She and her family left for the U.S. There she tapped into her adaptability skills and resilience to navigate a new culture while seeking asylum.
Her experience in multiple cultures led her to develop her power as a communicator, a power she also explored creatively through fashion storytelling during her time in fashion school in the U.S. and for which she won multiple awards, including the FGI award.
After finding freedom through creative expression, Marina ended up working in the fashion industry in NY which quickly turned toxic , making her feel stuck creatively and personally.
She decided to quit corporate and reclaim her freedom by building her brand and business, Livin Vivaciously INC, to live her truth and the life of freedom she always wanted. And now she is literally living vivaciously!
Her experience and personal growth developed into a branding approach for those who refuse to fit in a box, especially freedom-obsessed, multi-passionate women who want to live vivaciously on their own terms.

“This changed my view . . .”
. . . .when you spoke about having a ‘true to self’ message. This changed my view because I always felt that I had to adapt to other youtubers’ brands instead of building my own. So it was very ‘how can I be like her’ instead of just being me.
