Ep. 7: Branding Without the Burnout – Real Talk with Taysha

In this episode of Kayotic, I sit down with branding expert and creative entrepreneur Taysha to unpack what really makes a brand stand out—and it’s not just the aesthetics. We’re talking strategy, messaging, personal vs business branding, and the mindset shifts that come with evolving your identity as a creative or entrepreneur.

Taysha shares her own rebrand journey, the trap of perfectionism, and how creator moms can navigate content, offers, and business without losing themselves in the process. Whether you're a multi-passionate hustler or a mom figuring out your next move, this episode is full of real advice and relatable chaos (the good kind).

We cover:

• When to start thinking about branding
• Signs it’s time for a rebrand
• How to find your voice (and stick to it)
• Whether or not you really need to niche
• Finding the balance between strategy and vibes
• What consistency looks like in real life (not just on Instagram)

✨ Grab your coffee (or wine), hit play, and let’s talk brand identity—with a little chaos on the side.

This episode is for you if:

• You're a creative or entrepreneur feeling stuck or overwhelmed by your branding
• You’ve outgrown your current brand and don’t know where to start with a rebrand
• You struggle with showing up consistently online (without faking it)
• You want real, honest advice from women balancing business, motherhood, and identity shifts
