How To Create A Soulful Brand in 5 Steps.
A FREE 5 STEP WORKBOOK TO CAPTURING THE SOUL OF YOUR BRAND AND CAPTIVATING YOUR AUDIENCE.
You cannot manufacture soulfulness in your brand: you feel it. I created a workbook exploring 5 key areas that I believe are essential to unearthing and capturing the soul of your brand. When a brand embodies its soul, it captivates its community and builds with clarity of intention and identity. It is the cornerstone of a successful brand. This workbook invites you to dive deep into your brand and gain clarity and inspiration in the process.
Enjoy!
Compelling and soulful branding visuals that tell your brand story and captivate your audience.
I work with small business owners inspired by slow living, myth and mystic to create compelling, illustrative branding that captures their business ethos and story with intention and authenticity.
NOTED PAST CLIENTS & COLLABORATIONS

MY INSPIRATIONS FOR WORK & LIFE
Slow Living is the ethos of living with a spacious mind and lifestyle that allows for connection with the earth, our inner worlds, and wider communities. I truly belief that if we can integrate the practises of slow living (be that inner wellness and spiritual healing, or conscious business and consumption) and integrate more intention, presence and peace into our lives we can contribute towards a world that serves all with compassion and respect.
The mythologies and folklore of our collective past resonates with us all on a subliminal level, connecting ourselves with the past and also with the future. For me, reconnecting with ancient imagery and stories and weaving them respectfully into my work are a way of infusing the modern day with depth, meaning and mysticism that transcends the confines of 21st century living, and resonates for years to come, speaking to us all on a subliminal level.
I was brought up in a way that encouraged integration of spirit, spirituality and self awareness into my life. I seek to conduct myself in a mindful, intentional way that uplifts and celebrates the more esoteric and alternative forms in life; be that the people I work with or how I conduct my work day and dealings in business. I see my work as an expression of myself, my unspoken observations and inherent creativity; thus a conduit for spirit and actualisation.

BRANDING
…When I first met Clara we instantly connected through a beautiful, deep conversation. Her work is a direct reflection of the mysticism she embodies and is creatively so connected to, therefore she couldn’t have been more aligned to create the brand imagery for Path of the Lioness. Clara could really feel my mission and she deeply cared about every step, which made this whole creative process super sacred and this was incredibly important for me, as my brand is a temple I am inviting people into, so it was essential for me that this whole journey felt connected, aligned and fun, and it so was and it was so exciting seeing it all come together. Clara has created something so magnificent because every time I look at it I feel inspired and am reminded of how amazing my brand is.
Just in Love with what she created for me. Thank you so much beautiful Clara.

'From the first point of contact with Clara, I knew she was going to create something special for my brand. Clara kept me updated during the process, asking me for my input and feedback throughout.
The final result was better than I could have ever imagined, and I felt supported with how to deliver it successfully.'

BRANDING / ILLUSTRATION
Clara has a true gift for understanding what lies beneath the surface of a brand, then bringing that story to life through her beautifully unique illustrative language. Clara's design process and communication is an art in itself - seamless and crystal clear, it is an absolute pleasure to be guided through the various stages. Working with Clara, I felt in such safe hands. I was blown away by her depth of understanding and genuine vibrancy for what she does. She is an absolute joy and I would work with her time and time again.
