WELLBEING AND PROFIT AREN'T JUST COMPATIBLE.
They're inseparable.
BOLT & BLOOM WAS BORN FROM A BRUTAL TRUTH:
The Business World Has Been Breaking Brilliant Women Under the Guise of "Professional Dedication” for Decades.
After watching mental illness tear through my family while battling burnout and anxiety myself, I couldn't ignore what I was witnessing across corporate America and the entrepreneurial landscape.
Female founders—the most purpose-driven, impact-obsessed, give-everything-they've-got leaders—were sacrificing their wellbeing for revenue and completely losing themselves in the process. And the world kept calling it success.
A PERSONAL LOSS FORCED ME TO TAKE AN UNEXPECTED PAUSE, AND IN THAT RAW STILLNESS, A REBELLIOUS QUESTION EMERGED:
What if Business Could Be Both Prosperous and Peaceful? and Dare We Even Ask?
What if we stopped glorifying the grind and started building brands that expand your life instead of consuming it?
What if clarity, not chaos, became your competitive advantage?
At Bolt & Bloom, we prove it’s possible.
Named after bardo — the Tibetan concept of transformation’s messy middle — we thrive in that sacred gap between endings and beginnings.
It’s where the old rules break and new realities take shape.
“For Female Founders, a Clear Brand is the Shortest Path to Your Highest Vision.”
— Emily Jayne Dean, Founder of Bolt & Bloom
OUR PHILOSOPHY
The greatest brands of our time don’t play by the rules.
They evolve. They shed. They reconnect. And they rise.
Your brand should expand your life — not consume it.
And I’d be honored to help you build one that does exactly that.

WHAT WE BELIEVE
Building a brand with Bolt & Bloom means partnering with a team that operates from a different set of principles - ones that honor both the mission and the human behind it.
These are the non-negotiables that shape every framework, every strategy session and every decision we make together:
-

Your wellbeing is the most effective business strategy.
We refuse to build brands on the backs of burned-out founders. Every framework, decision, brand strategy and marketing plan starts with this question: Does this serve your peace and your P&L? Both matter. Both are possible.

Simplicity is rebellion.
In a world that profits from your confusion, we weaponize clarity. We strip away the noise, cut through the cognitive overload, and give you the razor-sharp positioning you need that replaces overwhelm with conviction.

Founder-led brands need maps, not martyrs.
You built something meaningful, but you can't stay on the front lines forever. We design strategies so aligned that your team can represent your vision without you white-knuckling every decision.

Question the rules, not your worth.
We challenge conventional business wisdom with rebel energy grounded in results. The "business as usual" narrative wasn’t designed to serve your brand, so we're rewriting it with optimism, intention, and a healthy dose of accessible anarchy.

Evolution isn't failure.
The founders who rise don't silence the doubt or stay stuck in outdated positioning. They shed. They pivot. They build brands that meet them where they are, not where they started. Growth requires permission to change, and we're here to give you that permission and a plan to evolve.

Serve, don't sell.
We lead with heart-centered integrity and attraction marketing, always. Your brand should magnetize the right clients through aligned messaging, not manipulative tactics that erode trust. When your positioning is crystal clear and your values shine through, you don't have to chase clients. They come to you.
