Building A Clear Authentic Brand- Hiring & Retention Strategies
Building a Clear Authentic Brand is a practical, faith-led business podcast for business owners in people-driven service industries who want clarity and alignment in their business.
Hosted by Amy Dardis, hiring strategist and co-founder of Clear Authentic Brands, this show is built around three things: people, purpose, and process.

- Hiring strategy and building a repeatable hiring process
- Interviews that reveal role fit, character, and real patterns
- Retention and reducing turnover through alignment
- Culture, values, standards, and non-negotiables
- Leadership, communication, and accountability rhythms
- Onboarding and orientation that set people up to win
