In this episode of Bippity Boppity Business, Rita Richa sits down with Lana Wear, founder and CEO of Homewear Designs, real estate flipper, home stager, MBA, and self-confessed Lowe's danger zone, for a conversation that will completely rewire how you think about your brand.
Lana's world is physical spaces. She transforms homes in New York City, the Hamptons, and St. Pete, but the principles she lives by apply to every entrepreneur trying to build something that feels intentional, magnetic, and unmistakably theirs. This episode bridges the gap between interior design and brand identity in a way you didn't know you needed, and once you hear it, you can't unhear it.
Using Disney's most iconic resorts as case studies, the Contemporary, the Grand Floridian, the Caribbean Beach, Lana breaks down exactly why some spaces make you feel something the moment you walk in, and how you can engineer that same feeling in your brand, your content, your office, and your online presence.
