    106. You did everything "right" and still feel like you disappeared with Elizabeth Neal

    In today’s episode, I am chatting with Elizabeth Neal, a women’s soul liberation coach and the founder of The Sacred Return. Elizabeth supports women in releasing the conditioning, masks, and self-abandonment that keep them disconnected from themselves so they can return to their truth, voice, and purpose. This conversation was such a powerful reminder that so many of the thoughts we have about who we should be, how hard we should work, and what success should look like may not actually be ours. We talk about the difference between fear and intuition, why self-trust can feel so hard to build, and how small decisions can help us reconnect with our own inner knowing. Elizabeth also shares her perspective on identity death and rebirth, the grief that can come with realizing you’ve been living from fear or performance, and why creating a life that feels aligned requires questioning the scripts we’ve inherited. We also get into hustle culture, feminine and masculine energy, and what it can look like to define success on your own terms.  We cover: How to tell the difference between fear, intuition, and conditioning Why self-trust is built through small, low-stakes decisions The grief that can come with outgrowing an old identity Why external markers of success can still leave you feeling unfulfilled How hustle culture teaches us to disconnect from our bodies and desires What it means to create harmony between feminine and masculine energy How to question whether a belief is truly yours or something you inherited Elizabeth’s heart-breathing practice for returning to peace and getting out of overthinking  CONNECT WITH ELIZABETH Website: ElizabethnealcoachingElizabeth Neal | Identity Transformation for High-Achieving Women Instagram: Instagraminstagram.com/elizabethnealcoaching Substack: SubstackElizabeth Neal | Substack

    105. You’d trust yourself faster if you stopped building your business someone else’s way

    LEARN MORE ABOUT BRAND IN FULL COLOR: https://solbritestudio.com/services BOOK A BRAND & VISIBILITY STRATEGY SESSION: https://solbritestudio.com/strategy-sessions  In today’s episode I’m taking you on a walk with me. Two and a half years into running Solbrite Studio, I’m making a small, but impactful pivot, and I wanted to tell you about it while it’s still happening. I talk about why I started feeling boxed in by the usual brand design model (logo files, website launch, done), the imposter syndrome that still shows up for me every single day, and something I kept seeing with clients: they’d finally get the rebrand of their dreams and then keep hiding anyway.  That pattern is what shaped my offers: Brand in Full Color, a brand experience that pairs brand strategy and visual identity with mindset work. Content creation and strategy that gives you a plan you feel good about and excited to do. I’m talking about: What two and a half years in business taught me about trusting yourself over all the “shoulds” from mentors, programs, and your own industry The internal war that so often comes after a beautiful rebrand, and why so many founders still don’t show up in theirs How I went from hiding behind carousels of client work to talking on camera and on this podcast every week Why social media has become the place people find you Your homework: Open your notes app and answer this: if you could build your business your dream way, without looking at what anyone else in your industry is doing, what would it look like? Who would you work with, what would you want to be known for, and how would your days feel? If you’re ready to stop hiding behind your brand and start showing up in it, you can learn more about Brand in Full Color or book a 90-minute strategy session!  Find you content style: https://solbritestudio.myflodesk.com/content-style-quiz  Learn more about our services: https://solbritestudio.com/services  Apply to work with me: https://solbritestudio.com/contact  Free Resources: https://solbritestudio.com/free-resources  Connect: Website: https://solbritestudio.com/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/solbritestudio/ Pinterest: https://www.pinterest.com/solbritestudio/ Blog: https://solbritestudio.com/blog/ Want to be a guest? → https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLScasHhwefUF5xcFhwlD3Nejt6SUeYgmnCxsJowppc9bkFJ2sQ/viewform  If you loved this episode, please subscribe, rate, and review the podcast!

    101. How Design is Felt Through the Body with Carrie Montgomery

    In today's episode, I am chatting with Carrie Montgomery, the founder of Hypnotic Branding -- a brand strategy approach that treats the nervous system and subconscious as the real architecture of a brand. This episode was truly incredible as we talked about the link between the nervous system and personal branding and how design can really be felt and interpreted through the body. As a designer, I was obsessed with everything in this conversation, especially when it came to how design evokes emotion and how those emotions help buyers make a decision.  We talked about how so many founders end up building a brand that is a complete mismatch from who they are as they try to do what is working for others in the industry. We get into why this is, what this is actually telling you about your subconscious mind, and how founders can navigate this. Carrie also walks us through the exact drills she uses to calm her nervous system before getting on camera as well as, some other helpful tips for founders that would rather not be the face of their brand.  We cover: How the body holds on to things we experience and how those experiences can affect how we show up in our businessesWhy trying to mimic or recreate a brand you admire never works long termHow design affects buyers decisions through a felt sense What's actually happening in your body when you're camera shy, and the specific drills she teaches clients to build capacity for visibilityHow to know if you need a personal brand and what to do if you're a founder who doesn't want to be the face of your brandCONNECT WITH CARRIE https://www.carriemontgomery.com/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/realcarriemontgomery/ Freebie: https://www.carriemontgomery.com/free-centering-med Learn more about Brand in Full Color: https://solbritestudio.com/services Apply to work with me: https://solbritestudio.com/contact Free Resources: solbritestudio.com/free-resources Connect: Website: solbritestudio.comInstagram: @solbritestudioPinterest: @solbritestudioBlog: https://solbritestudio.com/blog/ Want to be a guest? → Schedule an interview If you loved this episode, please subscribe, rate, and review the podcast!

    100. Who Do You Need to Become to Do the Next Thing You Desire?

    Before I sat down to record this episode, I did some reflection on what it took for me to start this podcast or to get to 100 episodes. I used to think the goal was becoming someone who doesn't care what people think, and I don't think that's actually possible or even the point. The real work has been learning to feel the discomfort of being seen in a new, more exposed way and acting anyway. Most of us aren't actually afraid of being seen, we want to be seen, for our work, our impact, who we are, but what we're afraid of is being misunderstood.  This podcast has doubled as my own process of self discovery, and my hope was never for you to copy my path or any guest's path exactly, it's for you to hear enough perspectives that you can find your own. Thank you for listening for 100 episodes, there is so much more to come. 3 Learn more about Brand in Full Color: https://solbritestudio.com/services Apply to work with me: https://solbritestudio.com/contact Free Resources: solbritestudio.com/free-resources Connect: Website: solbritestudio.comInstagram: @solbritestudioPinterest: @solbritestudioBlog: https://solbritestudio.com/blog/ Want to be a guest? → Schedule an interview If you loved this episode, please subscribe, rate, and review the podcast!
