About

Hey, I'm Maria β€” a personal branding coach and consultant based in Berlin. I teach solopreneurs to build personal brands that attract clients and opportunities. Lots of opportunities. And if there's anything I learned this year about myself, it's that I LOVE TEACHING. Being useful, helping you grow and seeing the spark in my student's eyes. So, I've been teaching hundreds of people through workshops, events, 1:1 sessions, communities... After working as a startup marketer for 4+ years, leading content-first growth and turning LinkedIn into the primary source of leads and revenue, not just vanity metrics, I decided to go all-in as a personal branding consultant and content creator. Since then, I've been lucky to work with brands like Framer, Notion, Tally, Pitch, ATworld, GrowthMentor, LeadShark, 12BRAVE, and many more. If you're a solopreneur or founder who needs clear systems and to make your personal brand drive opportunities, clients and leads for you β€” you're in the right place, and I would love to help! πŸ’œ DM me "LINKEDIN GROWTH" and we can explore how I can support you on your journey! I also created and manage two communities β€” Solopreneur Community (launchanyway.com) and the Notion for Marketers community (as a Notion Ambassador) in Berlin... because I just love people and learning from each other. You can find lots of free resources on my page and YouTube channel (@hellomarialeden). Other than here you can find me at a calisthenics class, grabbing vegan lunch with friends, or co-working at one of my favorite Berlin cafes.
