The Season After Hustle: Intuitive Branding & Feminine Leadership in Business with Luna Battalia
Watch & Subscribe on YouTube @marladiann
Women entrepreneurs, see if this feels familiar.
You’ve built the business.
It runs. It generates revenue.
It makes the impact you desire.
And now… you’re asking a deeper question. Who am I becoming next?
In Episode 99 of Follow Your Joy, I’m joined by Luna Battalia — Leadership Mentor, Founder of Caru Creative, and creator of Animist Branding™ — a psychology-driven approach to branding rooted in intuition, intimacy, and feminine leadership.
Luna works with mature women at the intersection of personal evolution and professional legacy. Her clients are no longer chasing growth metrics — they are building bodies of work that matter.
Inside this episode, we explore:
• What happens when ambition softens into wonder
• Why scaling isn’t always the answer
• How to relate to your business as a living entity — not just a revenue machine
• The psychology behind powerful brand messaging
• How to “listen between the lines” to uncover your true voice
• Why Luna retired a successful podcast — and what that decision unlocked
• The difference between identifying as your brand vs. tending to it
Luna shares her Business as Entity™ philosophy — a shift from controlling your business to being in relationship with it.
Because when your brand is treated as something living, breathing, evolving…
The pressure dissolves.
The clarity sharpens.
The message deepens.
This conversation is aligned beautifully with my La Vita e Bella brand for women entrepreneurs in their 40s, 50s and beyond who have built stability — and are now ready to lead from intuition, essence, and legacy.

hi, i’m your host
Marla Diann!
I’ve been transforming creative entrepreneurs’ lives for over 27 years through two businesses. As a success coach and business strategist, I am passionate about helping entrepreneurs collapse the time frame of achieving their desires and goals.
It’s time to make joy your inner GPS for life and business decisions rather than lean on your logic and reason, first.
You’ll not only be following what is most authentic to you and for you, but you will live the beautiful life meant just for you.
