This week, we’re joined by the founders of Cabot & Main for a very honest conversation about leaving corporate life and building something of your own.

We get into the messy middle of entrepreneurship:

✱ quitting the stable paycheck

✱ redefining success

✱ building a business with your friend

✱ and whether entrepreneurship actually gives you more freedom… or just different problems

This episode feels like sitting at dinner with women who are finally saying the quiet parts out loud.

This week, we’re joined by the creative brain behind MiMo’s entire brand identity: Gracie of The Frog Studio. The woman responsible for the asterisk tattoo permanently living on all three of our bodies now. Casual.

We talk about what branding actually is and why prioritizing strategy and creativity matters more than ever in a world where everything is starting to look the same.

We also get into one of Gracie’s hottest takes: if you’re relying on AI for creativity, you’ve already missed the mark.

If your business feels visually meh, disconnected, forgettable, or unclear… this episode is for you.

This episode starts with getting fired from our 9–5s… and ends with building MiMo.

Cheyenne and Lauren get real about the day everything blew up, what corporate instability taught us, and how getting pushed out became the thing that finally pushed us forward.

We talk fear, finances, identity spirals, burnout, betting on yourself, and what entrepreneurship actually looks like behind the “quit your job” highlight reels.

Spoiler alert: we were terrified… but also relieved. No more toxic bosses or pouring energy into jobs that drained us. For the first time, we could fully bet on MiMo and finally believe in ourselves the way everyone else already did.

If you’ve ever wondered whether your breaking point might secretly be your turning point, this one’s for you.
