Ep. 7 On Colours, Fashion and Frameworks

Every piece of your business, from your offers to your visuals to your messaging, comes back to one thing: the inner message you’re here to express.

In this episode of The Midnight Edit I’m sharing:

• My journey with fashion and how it relates to frameworks in business
• Why your message often gets buried under trends, shoulds, and strategy noise
• How to use frameworks as scaffolding (not cages) for your creativity
• The difference between structures that harmonize your expression vs. those that stifle it
• Why clarity on your inner vision is the first step to designing a business model that truly fits

Mentioned Resources

• My incredible colour analyst Gabi
• A great overview blog on the Kibbe system

Ep 6: On Brand Expression and Being Fully Human

For a long time, I hid behind the intellectual, “safe” side of my business. It felt comfortable. Reliable. Easy to explain.

But parts of me, the poet, the sensual Leo, the mystical, intuitive side, were quietly insisting on being included.

In this episode of The Midnight Edit, I share what happened when I stopped editing myself down and began letting more of my humanity shape my personal brand and business expression.

Inside this episode:

• The trap of building a one-dimensional personal brand
• What shifted when I allowed softer, more creative parts of myself into my work
• A behind-the-scenes story of guiding my client and creative director, Freya, through her own brand expression evolution
• Why people are craving depth, nuance, and real humanness in the brands they connect with

If you’ve been feeling the pull to bring more of yourself into your work but aren’t sure how to do that without losing clarity or credibility, this episode is for you.

Mentioned Resources

• My phenomenal creative director Freya Rose Tanner

Ep 5: On Embodiment, Imagery, and the Next Level

“I call her Purple Dress Emily.”

Something shifted for me during a recent photo shoot. A moment that anchored me into a new level of visibility and self-trust in a way no AI-generated image ever could.

In this episode of The Midnight Edit, I explore the deeper conversation we’re not having about AI photoshoots, embodiment, and what it actually takes to step into the next chapter of your personal brand and business.

This episode dives into:

• Why the current conversation around AI photoshoots is missing the deeper point
• The behind-the-scenes story of my Masterpiece launch photo shoot
• How embodiment and imagery shape personal brand evolution
• The unexpected way a single photo shoot can become a threshold into your next level

If you’ve been curious about AI photos, navigating a visibility edge, or feeling the pull toward a more embodied expression of your work, this episode will offer a new way of seeing yourself and your brand.

Ep 4: On Evolving and Launching a High-Ticket Mastermind

Programs are living, breathing things. And sometimes, that means letting one chapter end so something new can take root.

In this episode of The Midnight Edit, I take you behind the scenes of how I closed a successful group program and evolved it into Masterpiece, my high-ticket mastermind and private coaching hybrid.

This is a candid look at the strategic and relational decisions behind designing a high-level offer that’s built for depth, sustainability, and real transformation.

Inside the episode:

• The signs it was time to retire my previous program
• The two specific lenses that guided the design of Masterpiece
• The intentional architecture behind its structure, intimacy, and outcomes
• How and why I priced it the way I did

If you’ve ever wondered what it actually takes to evolve into a high-ticket mastermind without burning out your audience or yourself, this episode offers a grounded, behind-the-scenes roadmap.

Ep 3: On Finally Saying “I Can’t Do It Anymore”

“I just can’t do it anymore.”

The moment those words left my mouth, I felt relief and panic at the same time.

For years, my business had been built around being the go-to person for transformational program and curriculum design. Letting that identity and body of work go felt unthinkable. But staying attached to it felt even worse.

In this episode of The Midnight Edit, I share what it actually looked like to admit something was complete, and how I began evolving my work without rushing clarity or forcing a clean break.

Inside this episode:

• How I knew it was time to retire one of my core offers
• The deeper intersection of strategy and self-expression my work is moving toward
• Why this shift felt inevitable and, honestly, a little cosmic
• The real, non-Instagram-perfect timeline of making big changes in your body of work

If you’ve been feeling the pull toward something bigger but are afraid of what you might lose in the process, consider this your permission slip to explore it.

• My mastermind–private coaching hybrid experience, Masterpiece
• The 2026 France retreat

Ep 2: On Outgrowing What Once Fit

It’s scary AF when you realize you’ve outgrown your business, your audience, or the message that once felt like home.

It’s even scarier when you admit it out loud and start acting on it.

In this episode of The Midnight Edit, I pull back the curtain on what it actually looks like to outgrow a business without betraying your past work, burning everything down, or forcing clarity before it’s ready.

This episode explores:

• Why this kind of evolution is inevitable for creative, soul-driven entrepreneurs
• The real cost of ignoring the quiet whisper that says this isn’t it anymore
• How to honor everything you’ve built while making space for what’s next
• Why expansion doesn’t require destruction

If you’ve been feeling the pull toward something bigger, deeper, and more aligned and it also feels terrifying, this conversation is for you.

Ep 1: On Persephone and Pomegranates

2024 was my Year of Terrible. A true Tower year.
Everything that wasn’t built on solid ground came crumbling down, and no matter how much I tried, I couldn’t force my way out of it.

In this first episode of The Midnight Edit, I share how the myth of Persephone helped me understand my own underworld season as an entrepreneur and business owner, and what it taught me about surrender, timing, and navigating periods of deep evolution in business.

This episode is for you if you’re in a quieter, heavier, or more disorienting season and wondering how to keep trusting the process without rushing your way back to the surface.

Inside the episode:

• Reflections on Persephone and how her myth supported me through a difficult business season
• Why we need to normalize underworld phases in entrepreneurship and growth
• What surrender actually looks like when a business is evolving
• Why rushing your spring only delays it
