There’s a moment every woman consultant hits.

She’s built the brand.
She’s booked the clients.
She’s “made it.”

But when she looks in the mirror, it doesn’t reflect who she really is—or where she’s going.

Kristin Belden knows that moment well.

When she joined me on The Luxe Leap podcast, she wasn’t just sharing wins. She was peeling back the layers of a brand evolution rooted in truth, not trend.

Kristin is a strategic advisor for women at the helm of transformation—leaders who are managing seismic organizational shifts while still showing up as moms, mentors, and movement-makers.

But the version of her brand that existed before? It wasn’t wrong. It just wasn’t ready for the level of resonance she was stepping into.

She called herself a “growth strategist,” but it landed flat. People assumed she did go-to-market planning or managed sales ops. She didn’t. Not even close.

So she did what powerful women do.

She redefined herself—not to fit the mold, but to finally break it.

What emerged was a new category: evolution strategist. Someone who guides women leaders through complex seasons of change by tuning into the unseen layers—the beliefs, fears, and team dynamics that never make it to the org chart.

Because evolution isn’t about optics. It’s about identity.

Luxe Lesson:
You can’t own your category if you’re still borrowing your language.

As Kristin discovered, the words we use in our brand are either bridges—or blockades.

Women consultants don’t get to play the same branding game as everyone else. We’re not just selling solutions. We’re stewarding transformation. And that requires language with more precision and more power.

Kristin’s rebrand didn’t just shift her message. It recalibrated her momentum.

She started attracting the right clients.
She clarified her true value.
And she stepped into a version of her business that finally felt as strategic as she is.

Not because she changed her offer.
But because she changed her expression.

For the woman building her consultancy with intention, elegance, and edge—

It’s time to stop describing what you do.
And start declaring who you are.

Hear Kristin’s full Luxe Leap for the full story behind her evolution—and the branding breakthrough that changed everything.

Because your brand isn’t just what you sell.
It’s what you stand for.

And when you stand in your truth, the right clients rise to meet you.
