Building a Brand People Want To Come Back To with Rachel Leslie from Laer Studio
Sep 10, 2026
What actually makes a brand memorable? And how do you tell your story without sounding like everyone else?
In this episode of The Rave Social Podcast, Jaiden sits down with Rachel Leslie, founder and editor-in-chief of Layer Studio, to talk all things brand storytelling, copywriting, creativity, and growing a business. Rachel shares what she learned from working with brands like Nike, Away, Zola, and Goop Kitchen, and why the strongest brands are the ones that truly know who they are and what they stand for.
They get into why storytelling isn’t just your About page or a perfectly crafted Instagram caption, how to make your writing more specific and relatable, the biggest mistakes business owners make when writing their own copy, and why reading your work out loud can completely change the way it lands. They also talk about using AI without losing your personality, finding creative inspiration through travel, transitioning from solo business owner to agency leader, and the never-ending process of figuring out how much of yourself belongs in your brand.
Plus, Rachel shares the reminder every entrepreneur probably needs to hear: you’re right where you’re supposed to be.
