You've probably heard a million times that branding is absolutely essential to drive forward the success of your business. But you might be wondering, "Why?" In this episode, I'll be answering questions like: How do you know when it's time to invest in branding? How will having quality branding actually make me money? I'll also dig into limiting beliefs around branding and how it holds you back from achieving your business goals, and the psychological breakdown of what having a strong brand does for your business.
This episode starts with mindset breakthroughs and ends with journal prompts to help you understand why now - not tomorrow, not a year from now - is the time to invest in branding.

In today's episode on Behind the Design Podcast I'm doing a different variation of reflections on 2022 and setting goals for the new year, by sharing challenges I had this year and how they negatively affected my business. While this might seem negative, we can learn a lot by evaluating poor decisions because it allows us to reflect how we overcame those challenges and how we can change things going forward.
I'm getting super vulnerable and sharing 3 bad business decisions I made in 2022 and lessons I learned from them, while also diving into what I'm doing differently in 2023. While these bad business decisions can see detrimental, I learned so much from them and it was from these lessons that I've completely shaped how I'm approaching business in 2023.

"I welcome all things that life has to offer with ease and flow." This mantra has completely opened up my mindset after experiencing so many intense highs and lows, which I'll get into in today's episode. To start, we had to move out of our apartment unexpectedly, we lost an offer on a house, and my computer crashed. But shortly after embracing that mantra and getting in the right frame of mind, so many amazing things began happening. I got engaged and we found our dream home! In this episode, I'm going to share how to balance life and business in a professional, effective, and graceful way when you run into big life changes, and how I've been staying grounded through it all!
