Rebecca Gunter is the founder of Stoned Fruit, a brand strategy and messaging studio for founder-led businesses whose message has stopped keeping up with the work.
A self-described Brandthropologist, Rebecca uses an anthropological lens to study the culture, language, proof, patterns, and founder truth inside a business, then turns what is true into language people can actually use.
Her work pushes against the false choice that founders must choose between sounding credible and sounding like themselves. Rebecca believes the strongest brands are both strategically sharp and unmistakably human. They explain themselves, repeat themselves, prove themselves, and carry themselves — without making the founder do all the translating.
In this episode of Renee Speaks, we sit down with Rebecca Gunter—transformative coach, brand therapist, and founder of Stoned Fruit. Rebecca helps fierce entrepreneurs clarify their positioning, strengthen their messaging, and build brands that feel authentic, aligned, and powerful.
With a gift for uncovering the “golden thread” in a founder’s story, she guides business owners to find the words that truly work—and use them to grow with clarity and confidence. Her approach blends deep coaching with practical brand strategy, helping entrepreneurs stand out in crowded markets without losing their voice.
In Positioned to Stand Out, Rebecca shares how founders can uncover their unique story, align their messaging, and create brands that resonate deeply—turning authenticity into a powerful growth advantage.
