The Revival Of You
Hello Good Space Collective! Welcome to the revival of you! I am Janae Bryson! the founder of Auden & Company. Auden & Company is an innovative creative agency helping businesses reimagine their vision and tell bold stories! Today I am sharing my journey of manifestation, trials and tribulations of the woman who stands up here before you guys, today
Who here, believes in the power of manifestation or better known as law of attraction?
The philosophy of manifestation is based on the law of attraction. Which pretty much means that if you focus enough on a particular thought, positive or negative, you can attract that outcome. I have always believed in the power of manifestation and I actively use this philosophy in business when building my brands and encourage clients to use this philosophy in the format of cleverly structured brand clarity questions!
When you see manifestation within branding it is typically how a particular brand is perceived by those who interact with it! Even if your brand is not your namesake your personal will always show up!
Just as a humble brag on my expertise, I am going to break that down.

My Story
Now I am no stranger to embracing the high and lows of life. My authentic nature has allowed me to embrace the small victories and the big oops. I always say I am gracefully tripping through life's trials and tribulations. I have gone through a few chapters in my life where I thought to myself would I ever be able to revive who I am and become this woman I so clearly see in my head.
Have any of you experienced that. That sense of can you revive yourself after a hardship or path redirection & would like to share when you experienced that
I want to start at the beginning of my story & the circumstances that defined the foundation of me.
I was born as child number 4 to a mom who was addicted to drugs and a father who sold my mom those drugs. I was a ward of the state and I bounced around from foster homes, to my grandmother's home, to my biological mom’s home for years. The dysfunction I faced on a daily basis was tremendous and had me hoping for a change. I know I know, I am sure you are thinking dang, Janae that’s a little depressing. This conference is about the revival &connection! There’s a connection. I would lay in my grandmothers bed and I would visualize a happy family, family dinners, family vacations. I would take what I saw on Disney channel and I would focus on seeing myself in those scenarios. Talk about hyper fixation. I knew that not all families were like mine and any free time to daydream I did. When I was 11, my grandmother took my siblings and I to McDonald’s to meet with our adoptive parents and that was the start of a new chapter! Let me tell you, we had family dinner every night, we had fun summers, we went on family vacations and celebrated birthdays and holidays. We rallied around one another like a family does. My mom and I joke that I manifested my forever family!
That was the start of who I am and ever since I have been Gracefully Tripping Through Life’s Trials & Tribulations. As years went on I saw myself manifesting things for myself as I navigated the beautiful chaos we call life! Let’s call this the timeline of revival

Who I am Today & How Did I Become
Today I am founder of 2 companies & a non profit, a mentor to over 25 young creatives, and a mom to one sassy 1 year old.
I am authentic. I am resilient. I am an advocate. I am community centered.
Auden & Company was an essential part of coming out of one of the hardest few years of my early twenties. After a concussion, TBI, year and half off of school, and working my butt to realign my plan i stumbled across branding.
These values constantly show up in business or are the foundation of why I launched my businesses. I launched my internship program because I wanted to have an impact on young creatives. To Date I have mentored 25 young creatives. Which then led me to start our Non Profit, Auden Creative Network, which allows me to help young creatives advocate for their dreams.
When I launched Creatively Stocked, I wanted to be a creative solution for the lack of diversity WITHIN THE STOCK IMAGE MARKET & be an authentic voice for POC businesses
The moment I found out I was pregnant with Oliver, I started visualizing the intersection of business ownership and motherhood. When Oliver was born, I was terrified that I wouldn’t be able to manage what I built with motherhood. My resilience found a way to continue to do what I love while being present with motherhood.

Closure:
I was able to manifest a path that got me out of the generational pattern to become a business woman and a mom who can stay home & provide for her little one. Mentor to countless young women who can rely on my experiences to jump ahead. Manifestation is powered by visualization, supported by actions, and fueled by conscious reflection.
