"After really coming to the realization that she was the common denominator in her own life and in her own unhappiness." - Brooke Smith

From the confines of a cubicle to the liberation of entrepreneurship, Brooke Smith's journey is a testament to the power of self-belief and the pursuit of joy. The mastermind behind her own innovative company, Brooke joins us for a riveting conversation that weaves through the transformative path she took from corporate cog to creative visionary. As she opens up about her personal evolution, we are ushered into the world of mindful branding and web design, where passion and profession dance in harmony.

In this heart-to-heart, we celebrate not only the leaps of faith that define our careers but also the simple pleasures that color our lives. Brooke's tale is dotted with the zest of hot yoga sessions, the relaxation found in the clink of a dirty martini glass, and the sanctuary of a loving home shared with her husband and cats. Her story isn't just about building a brand; it's about crafting a lifestyle that cherishes work as much as it does the sweet unwind at day's end. 

The power of platforms like Clubhouse comes alive as Brooke recounts how digital serendipity forged connections and collaborations that have since blossomed into cherished friendships.

In this episode, you’ll learn: 

• How personal evolution can reflect in one's brand identity. 
• How to weave your own visionary threads into a personal and professional brand that feels authentically and unequivocally 
• How to step into your own as the architect of your happiness and success.

Have you ever grappled with the feeling of not accomplishing enough, only to realize that you've done more than you thought? That's what we've encountered and we're opening up about it. We start by reminiscing about the power of a one-word focus - a single term that can act as a catalyst for profound change, guiding your decisions and shaping your actions. 

In this episode, we discuss: 

• The importance of taking time to reflect and get organized in January, rather than rushing headlong into the new year. 
• Recognizing the difference between not enough and so much done already.
• The value of self-reflection and the significance of investing in oneself. 

For your daily dose of inspiration for CEO business growth, make sure you join us in this conversation!
