Brief

Holistic Leadership is the practice of Nav Sanghara — a CEO, leadership coach and keynote speaker with over 20 years' experience leading within complex systems, rooted in education and extending across sectors. Nav works with leaders navigating responsibility, transition and identity shifts, supporting them to lead with clarity, integrity and humanity. Nav came to us with a clear sense of purpose but no visual identity or digital presence to match it. The brand needed to reflect the depth and warmth of her work - something that felt grounded, credible and human, without the corporate gloss typical of the leadership development space. The website had to speak directly to leaders who are highly capable yet quietly running on empty, and signal that this is a different kind of offer.

Solution

We developed a brand identity and website that together communicate the seriousness and humanity of Nav's work. The visual identity draws on a warm, considered palette and custom logomark system, conveying the three pillars at the heart of her practice. Copywriting was crafted to speak candidly to the lived experience of senior leaders, moving away from generic coaching language toward something more reflective and direct. The website, translates this into a clean, spacious experience that lets Nav's voice and credibility lead - introducing her story, her services and the offering in a way that feels cohesive, trustworthy and distinctly her own.

A reel we created for a travel advisor got over 4 million views and brought in over 2,000 new followers in less than a week.

Here’s the psychology that made it work 👇

🤝 Three hooks working together: The visuals pulled you in before a word was read, the on-screen text gave you a reason to stay, the caption was controversial enough to spark debate. Most content has one hook. This had three.

👀 It sparked controversy: Telling people there’s a right and wrong way to eat in Italy gets opinions flowing. People agree, disagree, tag friends. That conversation is what pushed it to millions of people.

🌍 The authority was real: She wasn’t sharing tips she’d googled. She was born there. And people trust lived experience on a completely different level.

📌 It was built to be saved: Practical, time-stamped, immediately useful. The algorithm loves saves. So do humans.

💬 It ave people a reason to comment: The CTA ‘Comment a keyword, get a free Italy guide’ flooded the comments with interaction, and that signal told the algorithm this content was worth pushing to millions more.

And this wasn’t a one-off. We’ve made reels hitting hundreds of thousands of views, consistently.

But here’s the other part of the equation: she shows up. With her face. Regularly. She brings the insights, the lived experience, the local knowledge. We bring the strategy and the execution. People don’t just trust the content, they trust her. That familiarity and that partnership is what turns views into followers, and followers into enquiries.

Can I promise every reel hits millions? No. Nobody can. And I never would.

But content built around genuine expertise, a strong point of view and real human psychology will always travel further than content built around selling.

That’s what we build. 🎯

It’s our birthday! 🤍

1 year of running Sketchd Studio full time and I couldn’t be more grateful to each and every client that has made this possible 🫶🏻✨

Of course no road of business is easy and there’s been many ups and downs but I wouldn’t have it any other way!

We’ve connected with such inspiring founders, attended many events, been flown abroad to produce content, started a podcast, spoken on panels and co-hosted webinars as well as creating many brands, websites and social content for amazing clients all over the world.

Here’s to making our next year even bigger and better 🌠

Thank you all! 🤍

A reminder that you’re smashing it, despite what you may think 🤍

When I moved from Cape Town to London, I promised myself I’d take every opportunity that I wouldn’t have had in SA & @adobe MAX was definitely one of them! ✨

I attended the conference last week for the first time at @magazinelondon and left feeling more inspired than ever. Adobe launched so many new features and products that I can’t wait to start using 🫡

The theme of the event was how Ai can help designers have a better quality of life by improving their speed, quality of work and workflow and I’m so here for it 😮‍💨

They also launched amazing initiatives to help designers that are just starting out which I would of loved when I was a graduate!

Events like this always leave me feeling creatively inspired, and as someone who works from home & for myself, it’s always great to be surrounded by like-minded individuals ❤️

Very grateful I got to attend & I can’t wait for the next!
