Meet Corina Remer

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

Hi Corina, what habits do you feel helped you succeed?
My number one habit is meditation. I do 30 minutes every morning. This has been my source for dropping into a great flow state for the day, being grateful, setting intentions, asking questions, and receiving information (channeling with higher self/spirit). I can remain more focused, present, and calm when overwhelmed or challenges and anxiety may arise.

Creating a balanced daily work flow, which includes having a daily schedule and within that schedule making time for breaks, movement, nourishment, and at least 15 minutes to rest, be still, and be silent. (a baby disco nap if you will)

Staying holistically healthy is very important for me. This includes consistent physical, mental, and spiritual training and growth.

Making time for fun, pleasure, and social time!

Can you open up a bit about your work and career? We’re big fans and we’d love for our community to learn more about your work.
The vision for Mad Lemon’s art and branding was born from the vibrant art, music, and creative freedom I was immersed in while growing up in a spirited, 60s/70s-inspired community in the farmlands of Pennsylvania. I’ve always been drawn to original creation, the kind of rebellion that radiates soul and passion. I wanted to keep the spirit and philosophy of that era alive, but with a futuristic twist: bold, vibrant, and deeply personal.

Together with our in-house artist, Mimo (@themoodymimo), who naturally aligned with my vision, we created a visual identity that captures Mad Lemon’s wild, expressive energy. The stars truly aligned for us, and I’m incredibly proud of what we’ve created!

Mad Lemon is more than a drink, it is a celebration of art, freedom, and self-expression. Through our brand, I encourage others to show up boldly: to be weird, wild, loud, soft whatever feels authentic. I believe authenticity is magnetic. When you move from that place, others feel it. You light your torch, and others will find their way through your glow.

We believe in blending the line between art and life. Whether through music, dance, fashion, food, or time in nature, Mad Lemon invites people to live a spirited life and have fun doing it. We’re deeply rooted in our community and committed to supporting others in creating and sharing their dreams.

Professionally, I’m self-taught in art, design, and business. Launching a canned cocktail brand was a massive leap of faith—I knew the odds weren’t in our favor in this industry, but my desire was louder than my fear. I love a good challenge, and I believe growth comes from doing the hard things. This journey hasn’t been easy or comfortable—and it’s not supposed to be. When you ask the universe for a big vision, you must grow into someone who can hold it. That growth is where the gold is.

I’ve come to see myself as a warrior. The biggest battle is always within, and the greatest reward has been my evolution mentally, emotionally, and spiritually. That kind of growth can’t be taught; it must be lived.

The key is to keep going one day at a time. Show up even when it’s hard. Be consistent. Stay optimistic. Train your mind to see challenges as part of the fun. There are no rules in this game. Playful adaptation is the dance to learn as you move through it.

Ask for help, find mentors, lean on your community, and above all, return to yourself—your belief, vision, and voice. Speak boldly about your future, learn from your past, and love yourself through it all. That, to me, is the true success story.

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?
I want to give flowers to everyone who has crossed my path on this wild journey and has shared kind words, encouragement, and support for Mad Lemon. It has been challenging in the past for me to fully see and celebrate what I was accomplishing while running a business and bringing this vision to life (learning as I went) Like many, I’ve wrestled with my inner critic and impostor syndrome, but today, I am deeply grateful for how far I’ve come and how I can now move with more confidence, ease, and power. The endless encouragement, amazed reactions, and genuine excitement from others along this path have helped me see myself through a new lens. Whether it was someone complimenting the taste, admiring our branding, close friends & business partners watching me melt down and scooping me back up, or other creatives & business owners in the community offering to collaborate on photoshoots, events, or creative projects, each interaction has helped build a powerful sense of reflection and belonging. I’m moved by how the Lemonverse has woven a beautiful, supportive web of community, creativity, and shared joy. Thank you all for being part of the madness.
