Yarden Carroll - Hey Neighbor 102

In this episode, we sit down with Yarden Carroll, the force behind Crowned Creative, a brand strategy studio helping bold thinkers turn brilliance into bankable business. Yarden is a mother, creative powerhouse, systems thinker, and former engineer with four degrees (yes, four!) who brings heart, hustle, and a bit of rebellion to everything she touches.

From navigating ADHD and rebuilding after personal setbacks to creating frameworks that help coaches, consultants, and creatives package their genius—Yarden drops gem after gem. We talk about visibility, authenticity, storytelling that converts, and why she believes being the “best-kept secret” isn’t a flex.

Whether you’re an entrepreneur, a mission-driven leader, or someone still finding your voice, this episode will challenge and inspire you to stop hiding and start showing up boldly.

🔑 In this episode:
• How Yarden went from burned out and buried in Facebook ad debt… to building a thriving business through organic content
• What the REGAL and IMPACT frameworks are—and how they help creatives and nonprofits package their value
• Why “being seen” is essential, and how Yarden helps hidden geniuses own their brilliance
• What ADHD diagnosis at 39 taught her about turning a challenge into a superpower
• Why your personal story and emotional connection still matter more than any AI-generated content ever will
