You’ll hear what it actually looks like to show up in the messy middle — pitching investors for the first time, navigating unfamiliar beauty standards, and learning the difference between stability testing and (what Andi lovingly calls) mold stuff. It’s giving: radical transparency meets cult brand strategy.

This one is your weekly brand clarity download — the truth behind what makes an obsession-worthy brand today.
