The Unapologetic Designer Podcast

If you’ve heard hundreds of designer success stories but still find yourself thinking, “That’s great for them, but that could never be me,” this episode is for you.I’m talking with a subconscious reprogramming specialist (licensed hypnotherapist) about why seeing proof that something is possible isn’t always enough to change what you believe is possible for you. We get into the subconscious beliefs shaping how you price, sell, show up, and make decisions and why those beliefs can keep running the show even when, logically, you know better.Then, she takes us through an exercise that allows you to access the subconscious beliefs underneath those patterns and begin creating a different picture of what’s possible. So if you know success exists, but some part of you still doesn’t quite believe it can be yours…tune in for the full episode. The Creative RewireJoin Social Butterfly Club (Marketing Membership For Designers)⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Apply For Design Biz Academy⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠

In this episode, Izzy breaks down how she applied our exact framework including one incredibly simple shift: adding just 10 seconds to the end of her content to actually ask for the sale.That small change helped one Instagram Reel generate 37 inquiries!With branding services starting at $6,000, she’s already turned that momentum into a $10K project with more opportunities still coming in.Join Social Butterfly Club (Marketing Membership For Designers)⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Apply For Design Biz Academy⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Izzy's ReelCoach Kenzi's Breakdown #graphicdesignpodcast #designbusiness #brandingpodcast #fordesigners #designtips #freelancingtips #brandingcourse #branddesigner  

Marielle shares her experience inside DBA, why she says it was unlike any course she has ever taken, and the shifts that changed not only the way she approached her business, but her life.She opens up about where she was before DBA, what changed for her throughout the program, and what happened after graduation... including booking a $7,500 client who paid in full less than a month later. We talk about the strategy, support, confidence, and mindset shifts that helped her begin showing up differently in her business, charging at a higher level, and seeing bigger opportunities as something that could actually be possible for her.If $7,500 projects or $10K months still feel like something other designers get to have (but not you), this episode will give you a powerful look at what can change when your strategy and your belief in what’s possible begin to catch up with each other.Join Social Butterfly Club (Marketing Membership For Designers)⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Apply For Design Biz Academy⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Follow Marielle & Michelle#graphicdesignpodcast #designbusiness #brandingpodcast #fordesigners #designtips #freelancedesign 

Jannan already had clients, experience, and the skills to do the work but she was missing the confidence to charge at the level she was capable of delivering.In this episode, Jannan shares what was keeping her from seeing herself as someone who could confidently sell a $12K project, what shifted during her DBA experience, and what happened when she finally started showing up, positioning herself, and selling at that level.Join Social Butterfly Club (Marketing Membership For Designers)⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Apply For Design Biz Academy⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Follow Jannan#graphicdesignpodcast #designbusiness #brandingpodcast #fordesigners #designtips #freelancedesign 

Katie never thought she’d work for herself but when her job became so difficult that staying was no longer an option, she knew something had to change. In this DBA student interview, we’re talking about what happened when Katie took the leap, joined DBA, and started building a design business of her own even before she fully saw herself as an entrepreneur.She shares the uncertainty that came with leaving her job, what shifted once she had the right support and strategy, and how she went on to book a $22,000 project. If you’ve been telling yourself you’re “not the kind of person who could start a business,” this conversation might change what you think is possible.Join Social Butterfly Club (Marketing Membership For Designers)⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Apply For Design Biz Academy⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Follow Katie
