In this episode, Lydia sits down with Carly Schroeder, her close friend, creative director, designer, and co-founder of House of Creatives—for a real conversation on what it actually takes to build a brand you love.
They dive into:
- How rebelling against the corporate world sparked Carly’s path to entrepreneurship
- Why your brand message should reflect you, not sound like every other business in your industry

- The importance of clarifying your message before diving into design
- How a 360-degree approach to branding builds real trust with your audience
- Why knowing your target market is key to creating a brand that speaks to them
- And how the process doesn’t have to be long or overwhelming to rebrand—when you follow a clear framework
Whether you’re just starting out or rebranding, this episode will help you approach your brand with more clarity, confidence, and personality.

🥩 U.S. meat vs. international meat, what's better?
📢 How borrowing big audiences can seriously boost your social numbers
