What happens when a successful corporate career no longer fits the life you want to live?

In this episode of Unveiling Journeys, we sit down with Kim Speed, brand builder and founder of Purple Moon Creative, to explore her transition from global advertising agencies to entrepreneurship—and how branding became the bridge between freedom and financial sustainability.

After thriving as a creative director on major global brands, Kim was laid off during the recession. What initially felt like a setback became a turning point—one that allowed her to build a business aligned with her values, family, and desire for impact.

Kim shares how branding goes far beyond logos and websites—it’s about clarity, confidence, and connection. She also reveals how entrepreneurs can stop hiding behind their work and start building brands that naturally attract the right clients.
