We had the good fortune of connecting with Ceanti Aldridge and we’ve shared our conversation below.

Hi Ceanti, maybe we can start at the very start – the idea – how did you come up with the idea for your business?
Since middle school, I always knew I wanted to be some type of a designer. It was a fashion designer then and then in college, an interior designer. But throughout those earlier desires, I was always playing around with graphic design, making programs for my church, cards for my mom, posters for my sorority, etc. I also tinkered around with making websites for myself. So graphic design has always been a part of what I’ve done, I just started to take it more seriously.

Now I offer brand design, web design, and social media strategy because I want to help women create pretty and profitable, credible and creative brands they love across the digital space.

Let’s talk shop? Tell us more about your career, what can you share with our community?
My business is Audacious Ceanti Creative Studio. Audacious because I’ve been on a journey to overcome fear and self-set limitations so I can live the life I believe God designed for me. And that’s what sets me apart. Looking back at me growing up, going full time into business for myself is not something I should be doing. Shy, timid, rule-follower, I was the opposite of what they say you need to be to be able to do this, but I decided to do it anyway!

That’s why I am passionate about working with women who KNOW they’re called to do something and have been putting it off because of fear but finally decided to go for it. I want to help them establish themselves online through brand identity, websites, and social media marketing so they show up as the audacious bosses they already know they are!

I am all about helping women see and lean into what’s already unique and amazing about them, and showcasing that through the design of their brand.

For me, this is more than just business and making money, it’s about being a part of someone’s journey to become who they really are.

Any places to eat or things to do that you can share with our readers? If they have a friend visiting town, what are some spots they could take them to?
They should hit up Lake Hefner for a nice walk about the lake and downtown to check out some new things popping up.

And definitely go to Off the Hook Seafood & More for the best seafood in the city. Next Braum’s for the best ice cream! Then maybe back to Lake Hefner to burn off those calories haha.

The Shoutout series is all about recognizing that our success and where we are in life is at least somewhat thanks to the efforts, support, mentorship, love and encouragement of others. So is there someone that you want to dedicate your shoutout to?
My mom! She has always supported me and has given me the space to be able to pursue my dream full time!
