Simple Design Fixes That Level Up Your Business with Stacy Aguilar

Design isn’t just about making things look good—it’s about making your business work better.

In this episode, I’m joined by brand and web designer Stacy Aguilar, who breaks down exactly how small business owners can use design as a tool for growth, clarity, and confidence. We talk about simple design fixes that make a big difference, why consistency is crucial (especially for conversions), and how to approach branding without the overwhelm.

If you've ever felt like your design was holding you back—or just not doing your business justice—this one’s for you. Stacy shares both the mindset shifts and tactical advice that help creative entrepreneurs step into their authority and build brands that work as hard as they do.

What we covered in this episode:

✅ The real role design plays in business success (hint: it’s strategic!)

✅ What “taking up space” means and how design helps you do it

✅ Simple design tweaks you can make today—without a total overhaul

✅ How to DIY your brand effectively (and when to hire it out)

✅ And much, much more
