ICYMI: This week, Jane sits down with Eugene Healey, brand strategist, educator, and creator who has helped the likes of Google, Spotify, and Red Bull cut through the noise and actually stick in people's minds.

If you're still running the old influencer playbook, throwing product at lifestyle stars and hoping for the best, it's not going to cut it anymore. Eugene breaks down exactly why everything has changed, how to find and partner with creators who educate, entertain, and own niche communities, and what it actually takes to make your brand impossible to ignore.

Plus: how to set up your brand identity so your audience knows exactly who you are the second they land on your page, and why building consistent brand assets from day one is the difference between content that disappears and content that compounds.

The brands winning right now are playing by a completely different rulebook.

This week on The Lazy CEO Podcast, Jane sits down with Natassia Nicolao, founder of Conserving Beauty, the Australian skincare brand she built on a Bachelor of Science, a proprietary dissolving technology, and a refusal to take no for an answer. Natassia identified a genuine gap in the market: people with acne-prone and sensitive skin being failed by traditional beauty. She built clinically proven, water-free solutions around them, secured a world-first technology by out-pitching a major beauty conglomerate, and scaled to an eight-figure valuation with backing from top venture capital and shelf space across Australia and into the UK.

In this episode, they dive into:
What product development and packaging iteration actually looks like in practice, and the costly mistakes worth avoiding.
Why your customers are your best growth strategists, and how to build systems to actually hear them.
How she beat a major beauty conglomerate to secure the technology behind her first product, and why a compelling story will always outperform a spreadsheet.
