This year changed everything. I had $40K profitable months, $20K plus design clients, and podcast sponsors that made 2025 my best year so far. But beyond the numbers, it gave me clarity. In this episode, I share what worked, what I am changing inside my design agency, and how I am expanding my personal brand in 2026. Whether you are a freelance designer, brand and web designer, or a design business owner, this episode will help you reflect on your year and plan your next one with purpose.

You will learn:

• What I am changing inside my design agency next year
• How I am approaching visibility and personal branding
• What success actually looked like behind the scenes
• Why clarity matters more than chasing new goals

Grab a cup of coffee, your notes, and get ready to reflect on your biggest lessons from 2025 and create your plan for 2026.
