Brit is joined by brand expert, educator, podcaster, and author Julie Solomon. She’s the ultimate powerhouse woman who recently published her first book called Get What You Want: How to Go From Unseen to Unstoppable. Julie was one of the first influencers to use her PR background to monetize her social media and pitch herself to major brands. We talk about how she’s learned to hone in on her bold decision making skills and break out of the ‘stuck’ mentality. We discuss how to be vulnerable online while still respecting your own boundaries, and the importance of finding a medium that makes you feel safe and heard. Julie also pulls back the curtain on the writing process for her book and shares what she hopes readers will get out of it.
