27 days ago24:12

24:12

Andi pulls back the curtain on what she’d do to build a cult-status brand in just 90 days — the kind of brand people brag about discovering first, screenshot for their vision boards, and obsessively share with their group chats. Spoiler: it’s exactly what she’s doing with Casa Noon right now. Before diving into the 3-part roadmap, Andi also shares what’s happening behind the scenes — from buying her dream home in LA (fingers crossed!) to signing off on her first beauty product — and introduces the 7 Day CEO Reset Challenge, starting May 12 inside OOO Club. ✨ This episode is for the founder who’s ready to: - Build a magnetic brand that sells on vibe as much as value - Stop guessing what your audience wants and start creating for her actual life - Reset your energy, systems, and strategy before summer hits Andi shares: 🌿 A behind-the-scenes life update (spoiler: big shifts, dream house vibes, and cosmic alignment with ChatGPT clients) 🧠 The exact 3-month roadmap to build an obsession-worthy brand: Month 1: Obsess over the person, not the product — emotional clarity > demographics Month 2: Build the product and the world around it — vibe, tone, packaging, and rituals matter Month 3: Launch loud, then listen louder — feedback is data, screenshots are gold Plus — all the juicy details on the 7 Day CEO Reset Challenge kicking off May 12 inside OOO Club Links & Mentions: Join the 7 Day CEO Reset Challenge in OOO Club Visual Brand Style Masterclass (free!)

She shares powerful real-world stories from her early fashion incubator days, the creation of her beauty brand Casa Noon , and the behind-the-scenes moments with multi-passionate founders who went on to land CFDA Awards, make the 30 Under 30 list, and scale six & seven figure brands — all before they had the following, funding, or press.
