Embracing the Land of Misfits: My Journey to Purpose
​
Hi, my name is Esta. For as long as I can remember, I never quite fit into any conventional mold. Jokingly, I've often told friends that I belong in "The Land of Misfits." This sense of not belonging became a journey of self-discovery, where I unearthed my true strengths: intuition, insight, creativity, and a visionary outlook.
​
The corporate world, with its rigid routines and confined spaces, left me feeling mentally and physically trapped. My quest for purpose took me through diverse roles—from the serene ambiance of an art gallery to the intense environment of a private in-patient psychiatric facility, and even the dynamic world of retail. As a milieu counselor, I worked with adolescents and adults grappling with PTSD, using my knack for building trust and asking the right questions to help them move forward.
​
The turning point came when I partnered with a NYC nonprofit founder and spearheaded a groundbreaking initiative with E*Trade. Together, we built a nationwide career e-mentor network for underserved teens. This experience revealed to me the profound impact of global connectivity and the power of an inspiring voice.
​
For over two decades, I've immersed myself in niche industries, harnessing the transformative power of social media. I became a micro-influencer on Twitter, forging relationships with other influencers while continually learning and growing my brand.
​
Building meaningful relationships is my cornerstone. My passion for expression and creativity permeates every facet of my life, from photography to writing children's books. Today, I channel this passion into helping clients bring their brands to life, enabling them to stand out and thrive in an ever-evolving digital landscape.
My journey, consulting for a NYC nonprofit and E*Trade to build a nationwide career e-mentor network for teens, was transformative. This experience highlighted the profound impact of connection and the power of impactful messaging. It was my "a-ha" moment, where my purpose crystallized.
​
​As a Brand Messaging Architect, I collaborate with businesses to build messaging that stands apart, attracts new clients, and drives growth by connecting people to your brand.

I inspire businesses to uncover the heart of their messaging through creativity, innovation, and a commitment to quality, honesty, and transparency. This messaging truly connects people to your brand.

logo trivia
The "s.h.e." in my logo are my initials, reversed—Esta H. Singer. It made sense. I am a "she," and I do consulting. But there's more to it than just the letters.
​
I've always signed my name with a little "e." My friends from college called me "e.," and my niece and nephews lovingly call me "auntie e."
The little "e." has always felt comforting to me, almost like it's smiling. It's a small, personal touch that feels authentic and warm, reflecting my approach to both life and work. It's not just a logo; it's a little piece of me, a nod to my personal connections and the warmth I strive to bring to my professional relationships.​
