Highlights of this episode:

The Magic of Collaborative Branding:

Jess reveals why the best branding isn’t transactional—it's about deep collaboration that reveals what makes you (and your business) truly unique.

Owning Your Brain—Labels or Not:

We talk candidly about labels like ADHD, anxiety, and depression, and why the label itself might not matter as much as learning to work with your “big beautiful brain” (as Jess calls hers)

Making Space for Joy, Mess, and Rest:

Ultimately, the episode is a reminder not to confuse hustle with success, or routine with progress. The goal is to create a life and a brand that reflects your truest self, even when that looks different from the mainstream. Jess and I both agree: eat the cake, savor the little moments, and let your business be as unique as the brain behind it.

Jess’s superpower: Jess’s approach to branding involves making her clients step into their metaphorical red stilettos— pushing them out of their comfort zone so they can find their x-factor. In her words, “I don’t want small talk. Show me your fucking soul.”
