Show Notes
Five key takeaways from this episode:
- A successful brand refresh starts internally - “your internal culture externalised” - ensuring visual change reflects lived values, not trends.
- Letting go of legacy language and structures can create space for inclusivity, growth, and new creative disciplines without erasing the brand’s origins.
- Building a brand collaboratively - with team members, tutors, and community - creates shared ownership and long-term resilience.
- Trusting others to carry the work forward is a necessary evolution for founders, allowing the brand to grow beyond a single person.
- Creativity flourishes when pressure is removed - embracing “take two” as a mindset invites experimentation, confidence, and continued learning.
