Lauren Olson is a web designer, brand consultant, and owner of Sage Designing based out of Portland, OR. She guides small business owners through everything from branding to strategy to media training. In addition to running her business, Lauren is a Youtuber with over four million views, a Big Sister in the Big Brothers Big Sisters Program, and an owner of a 6-pound dog named Thor.

Our conversation is fun and upbeat as we chat about her journey as a creative following her heart after a disappointing post-college work experience. Lauren gives us practical tips for becoming comfortable on live videos as well as discusses the art of storytelling on camera. Listen in as we chat about:

Preparing behind the camera Lighting and technology setup What kind of equipment to buy and what's just not worth it Know who you're talking to  Know what you're talking about and why your audience cares

Lauren reminds us when you're starting out, you can keep your videos simple, short, and to the point. There are tons of free content out there on the same subject that you're talking about but the difference is you. Focus on becoming comfortable and projecting like a pro! Don't worry about being polished- just focus on being you.
