05 ~ Launching playfully + sustainably

Brand Seasons

Hello and welcome to the Brand Seasons podcast with me, designer, mentor, and writer, Sarah Robertson.

If you're curious about how you can make launching a book, product or service more playful and sustainable, this episode is for you.

As well as delving into how we can resource ourselves for periods of activity, I reveal the plans for my upcoming crowdfunding campaign.

The campaign will fund the production of the Brand Seasons Playdeck, a physical card deck focused on branding and business, and the Brand Seasons Paper, a printed mini zine with articles, interviews and stories celebrating creativity and seasonality.

Join the launch waitlist to be the first to know when the project goes live in September.

In this episode, we cover:

• Making a launch simpler and less stressful
• The importance of community input and building a network
• Pacing ourselves and taking breaks to avoid burnout
• The power of slowing down and letting go
• Embracing the energy of summer

The communities and programmes mentioned include:

• The Best 90 Days Ever community and book by Hannah Isted
• Luminous Launching (currently in beta) with Rachel Waring
• Oracle Creator with Jo Klima

This season of the podcast is sponsored by Saorsa Psychology.

In Gaelic, Saorsa means 'freedom'—serving as a beacon for those eager to amplify their impact in the world, in a grounded and gentle way.

Freedom lies in being bold, and if you’re looking for deeper meaning, you can carve your own path with a combination of coaching and psychology, where you'll be guided through the wood, the trees and the spaces in between.
