In response to recent announcement, in which it named 'Mocha Mousse' the 2025 Colour of the Year, we've pulled this special episode from our previous show: 'joy, colour, impact and dogs'...
In a nutshell, my opinion on about glorifying this delicious shade of brown is: yes please, especially if it takes us further away from our obsession with grey.
This topic gets me super fired-up because grey is powerful trend that most people think is fabulous, but is actually just not good for us. Neutral is not as aspirational as we make it out to be: grey-white-beige spaces are not the recipe for a joy first life.
In this episode we'll explore:
- Where our obsession with neutral colours comes from
- The shadow side of neutral - and the darker places it can lead
- The connections between our fears and our reliance on white, black and grey
- The role picking a lane, and taking a stand play in a strong and authentic brand
- How taking risks and embracing colour (your colours) can lead to more joy and self-expression.
