In this episode, Rachel is going deep into the hidden challenges facing apparel brand CEOs—and the critical mistakes that can sabotage even the most promising businesses. Drawing from years of firsthand experience at Unmarked Street and working with dozens of clients, Rachel shares real stories (with names changed) of three distinct CEO types: the over-scaler, the financially unstable, and the relentless micromanager.

You’ll learn what red flags to watch for in your own leadership style, how scaling too fast, neglecting finances, or holding on too tightly can derail your brand—and most importantly, how to step fully into the CEO role you were meant for. Whether you’re an emerging designer or an established founder, this episode is a hard dose of reality, but so needed to keep your business sustainable, profitable, and growing.

- How scaling too fast confuses customers and crushes cash flow.

- Why financial management is THE make-or-break for apparel brands.

- The high cost of micromanagement and employee turnover.
