International Day of Charity feels like a good excuse to give some love to an organization we love to support.

Last month, our Mavens volunteered at Dove’s Nest in Charlotte for the second time. Through HAVEN Heroes, we make space to get out of the office and support the people doing good work in our community.

Dove’s Nest provides no-cost residential recovery services for women and their children, creating a place for healing, support and a fresh start. We’re grateful we got to spend another day with them—and see the microwave we donated to the kitchen being used! We’re already looking forward to going back.

We gave ourselves a makeover. 💅

What if the secret to better leadership is… being a person? Wild concept, we know. 😏

On this episode of GSD with Jeni, Rocky Garza joins Jeni to talk about what happens when leaders ditch the polished performance and show up as their actual selves.

They get into why “getting it all done” is a myth, how self-awareness changes the way you lead and why your values should do more than look cute on a wall. If your leadership style could use a little less pressure and a lot more presence, this one’s for you.

A newsletter sign-up form might not seem like a game-changer, but how you show up in the small moments is often what defines your brand.

This one was functional but forgettable. It didn’t grab attention or make signing up feel worth it. So we rebuilt it the HAVEN way. Cleaner structure, clearer intent, on-brand visuals and showing off who they are.

If your brand touchpoints feel like they could use a refresh, get in touch with a Maven today!
