Bree Swezey
Authentic Edge Design + Co.
Brianne “Bree” Swezey is a graphic designer and marketing strategist who helps entrepreneurs in the health, wellness, and life coaching spaces design a brand and a business they love. Her current and past clients have called her everything from a lifesaver to a Godsend. But her personal favorite? Wingwoman.
She’s your wingwoman sent by the universe to help you turn your dreams into action and your vision into an ah-mazing brand. Bree will hold your hand (and be the wind beneath your wings) every step of the way, connecting you with her network of web developers, copywriters and social media managers so you have everything you need to grow your business. Her journey to entrepreneurship may not be so different from yours. She always liked her job as a graphic designer and art director. For 15 years, Bree led brilliant teams and created award-winning designs. Being selected one of Tampa Bay’s rising stars is still one of the most memorable moments in her career.
But deep down, she knew she wanted more. More flexibility for her busy mom-of-two life. More control over her schedule and creative process. More purpose in helping others succeed. Bree figured she’d get to it “some day.” After all, she is still young and healthy — plenty of time to chase her dreams, right? Then her perfectly healthy mom, best friend, and “Nana” to Bree’s two young boys, was diagnosed with liver cancer. Bree’s mom lost her battle in 2015.
A lot of people describe loss by saying their world was “turned upside down.” She didn’t really understand what that truly meant until then. To this day, her world is not 100% right-side up, and it probably never will be. Losing her mother made Bree realize that we actually don’t have all the time in the world, and that made her question and reevaluate everything.
So she made a choice. No more waiting. No regrets. And no more building someone else’s dream. Bree made “some day” today. Was it scary? You bet your yoga pants it was. Has she regretted it for one second? Not a chance. She didn’t have all the answers when she first started, but she’s found my footing along the way. And she can help you do it too.
