How does 'Brand Party' resonate with you?

What would you say to those who feel overwhelmed by their branding and design challenges?


I’m not sure about you, or to those listening to this episode, but I am a HUGE fan of deep conversation. Especially with strangers oddly enough, haha. This is something I really miss now especially as we aren’t able to travel as often perhaps or are physically distant from our loved ones. But that connection is so integral! Why is having that safe space to have deeper connections so transformative? What form can that take to dive in deeper for our own personal growth to the art of empathy with others?I saw you post about the quote, “Perfection is the enemy of good.” This has stuck with me ever since. That feeling to be perfect may not even be something we’re completely aware of ourselves, but it’s good to be conscious of how it creeps into our lives. What are some signs we should look for when it comes to perfectionism and low self-esteem? It’s not always easy, but how have you gotten out of your own way and pushed through those barriers? Would love your top 3 tips on how we can do it too.Anything else you’d like to add?


What are you currently celebrating? What’s the #1 thing you want people to have fun with from this episode?
