Entrepreneur Advice More about Brittany:
Prior to starting her business, Brittany Worthington was a professional dancer for Royal Caribbean Cruise Lines and knew nothing about creating content, writing captions or how often you are meant to "show up" on social media. But 3 years and over 50,000 followers later, she seemed to work it all out. As a Social Media Manager and Instagram Coach for Australian and International businesses, Brittany works with female-led service and expertise-based businesses of all sizes and has a mission to prove that successfully marketing yourself on Instagram, doesn't need to feel as painful as doing your bookkeeping. She's a myth-buster and will let you know which hacks aren't worth the hassle whilst passionately instilling confidence in you to show up as your most authentic self with sustainable systems and strategies to support you. After the successful launch of her signature program Conquer Your Content in 2022, Brittany now hosts an accessible and accountability-focused membership, Conquer Club, to support more women to show up, stand out and sell out with ease.

Welcome to my new podcast for designers looking to making a career out of their creative skills!
