How to Create Impact in Branding

Want to build a brand that’s actually you, not just a pretty logo and Instagram grid? 


In this episode with Ruha Ratnam from The Designist Studio shares how we can make an impact in our branding. We dig into the connection between your core values, the people you surround yourself with, and your ability to create an impactful, trust-driven business. Join us for an unfiltered conversation about how authenticity in business is more than surface-level branding, and so much more!


We cover:


  • The difference between presence and pressure, showing up authentically vs. hustling for perfection

  • Why knowing (and living!) your core values is the foundation of real brand trust

  • How slowing down and making intentional choices can help you avoid burnout and reconnect with your passions outside of work

  • The truth about using entrepreneurship for impact, not just for chasing dollar signs (yes, you can have both goals!)

  • A simple way to get started reflecting your values in your brand and everyday business decisions


We share our own stories of finding balance, making space for play, and evolving our approach to business in a world that never seems to stop. If you’re ready to lead with passion, authenticity, and a little kindness to yourself!, this episode is for you.
