038. 3 Ways to Reset Your Brand That Don’t Include a Rebrand


Listen Later

New year. Clean slate. Loud internet.

Word of the year, vision boards, goal setting, reflection prompts… If January already has you feeling behind & scattered, you’re NOT alone.

And whenever I start feeling out of control, I look at my circus & my monkeys.

In this episode, I’m walking you through 3 simple, practical ways to reset your brand without a full-on rebrand.

“Spring cleaning” belongs in the Spring, so think of this as an opportunity to clear the clutter and make your brand feel usable again right now, as it is.

Because when your brand is easier to use and lighter to show up with, you feel prouder to share it & visibility stops feeling like such a heavy lift.

Think of it as brand maintenance:

Less “new year, new you.” More “same you, but with fewer tabs open.”

(Also, take a shot every time I say “off-the-cuff”. Or don’t. We’ve got monkeys to manage.)
