There’s a lot of speculation around influencer management, and creators have plenty of questions. In this episode, I’m answering the ones you sent in!

In light of Bieberchella and all the brands bringing creators to the festival, I wanted to share tips and tricks on how creators can position themselves to get invited to brand trips. The key word here is relationships and why building them really matters. This episode is for creators who want to attend more brand trips and understand the reality behind how it all works.

In this episode, I dive deeper into a topic I often talk about, management. I break down what to look for, what to avoid, and why choosing the right management is so critical. Management matters more than you think. The wrong manager is not just unhelpful, they can actively hold you back, damage your progress, and set your career off course.

Violet Witchel began going viral on TikTok during the pandemic and quickly discovered the long term impact social media would have on her life. Six years later, she has built a loyal audience that shows up for her in real life at pop ups, and she is now in the process of writing a cookbook set to release in January 2027. What started as simply sharing what she loved in culinary school completely changed her path.

In this episode, Violet and I dive into her growth, her perspective on the industry, and the strategy behind building a lasting brand. We talk about the importance of relationships in this industry, what has actually worked for her, and what is next. This conversation covers everything you want to know about Violet’s journey, along with real insights into social media strategy that often go unspoken.

Abby’s story is one of my favorites in a long time. After graduating, she jumped from job to job in New York, trying to figure out where she fit. Along the way, she faced being underpaid, underestimated, and thrown into some pretty wild situations.

But every step pushed her closer to where she was meant to be.

Those experiences became the foundation for what she’s building now as the founder of Abbode. In this episode, we dive into her journey from uncertainty to launching her own store, everything she learned along the way, and what’s coming next.
