About Raw & Rebellious

Hey there! I’m Sarah Smyth - founder, creative mind, and head gal behind Raw & Rebellious. I started R&R in 2016 from the floor of my college apartment as a fun, scrappy way to make some extra cash. For the first five years, handmade jewelry was the heart of the business. But after moving to Colorado and reconnecting with nature, I found a new side of myself - one drawn to creativity, connection, and living fully in alignment. That shift inspired me to expand and evolve the brand alongside my own growth. I’m a passionate, curious, all-in kind of person- a true enneagram 7. I live for spontaneous adventures, mid week ski days, sleeping under the stars, deep conversations, and the magic of building authentic commcommunity. I’ve fallen in love with art, photography, spirituality, travel, the outdoors, mindfulness, and all the little things that make life feel full. And because R&R has always been an extension of me, it’s only natural that it’s evolved, too. Raw & Rebellious has become more than just a brand - it’s a way of life. A space for creativity, self-expression, and authentic connection. What started with jewelry has now grown into something much bigger: apparel, hats, custom merch, prints, shoes, collaborations, a podcast, a YouTube channel, hosted retreats and international trips. We’ve launched things like Rebellious Ski Club, Surf Club, DBU, print collections, western wear - and we’re just getting started.Read their story
