Personal biography vs LinkedIn: two different stories
How a personal biography differs from a LinkedIn profile: career vs life trajectory, and why you need both spaces.
LinkedIn is excellent for career: roles, skills, network. It’s weak for intimate trajectory: detours, pauses, places, reasons. A personal biography (or life Arc) isn’t a long CV — it’s another object.
What LinkedIn captures well
- Titles, companies, education.
- Professional proof.
- Network visibility.
What it leaves out
- Non-work chapters that changed everything.
- Present outside the job (practices, reading, season).
- Future outside KPIs (dreams, horizons).
Why separate the spaces
Mixing both is tiring: you over-edit life for recruiting, or pollute the CV with intimacy. LifArcs exists for the life story — with visibility you control — while LinkedIn stays the pro tool.
