If you've been wondering whether you need a personal brand, this episode will help you decide.

What happens when a beloved brand makes a major change without asking their audience first?

In this episode, Jaime and Jessie share two contrasting case studies: Cracker Barrel's $700M rebrand disaster that stripped away the nostalgic elements customers loved, and the Savannah Bananas' $6M commitment to their "Fans First" brand value when a ticketing mistake went wrong.

We discuss why putting your audience first isn't just good practice—it's essential to brand survival.

If you've ever wondered whether to get customer feedback before making a big brand decision, this episode answers that question.

In this episode, Jaime and Jessie share the essential lessons we've learned throughout our careers in design and branding. The biggest lesson? Designers are problem solvers, not just pixel pushers.

We explore the multifaceted role of designers as problem solvers, the importance of strategy in driving design, the subjectivity of design, and the significance of client feedback.

From understanding client needs and building trust to redefining the role of a designer, this episode is packed with insights that can benefit both designers and clients alike.

Choosing a brand name is more complex than it seems. Should you use your personal name or a business name? How do industry, target audience, and future plans factor in?

In this episode, Jaime and Jessie walk through the key considerations for naming your brand, share how we chose our own business names, and explain why nothing is permanent—you can change your name if needed.

We also explore the power of nostalgic branding and emotional connections, and why a name should be easy to remember above all else.

Authenticity builds trust, but what happens when you try too hard to be authentic?

In this episode, Jaime and Jessie explore the paradox of forced authenticity and why "just be yourself" is actually solid branding advice.

We discuss how to define what authenticity means for your brand through mission, vision, and values, and why confidence grows from knowledge and experience, not perfection.

If you've ever felt pressure to be "real" online and ended up feeling fake instead, this conversation is for you.
