When Laura Byrne won The Bachelor in 2016 she was surprised.
She also wasn’t a huge fan of Instagram. She had an account, @ladyandacat, that wasn’t doing much but it was the first year The Bachelor decided contestants should have their own Instagram accounts and she wasn’t prepared for what that would mean.
Before appearing on the show she had her own successful jewellery business, ToniMay. But after spending three months on one of Australia’s most popular TV show her business and profile boomed.
So how did she deal with her newfound fame and how does she make sure she keeps things real when she’s got a lot of people wanting to pay her a lot of money to post things?
Laura Byrne opens up to Tully Smyth about her journey into the crazy world of influencing...

Meet Emily and Lucy. They work at Mamamia and they live together in the inner city. They spend their days trying to work out how to turn the oven on, why their dating lives are such garbage fires, and why sometimes their tiny daily struggles seem just as insurmountable as the world’s biggest problems. Every week on The Undone they’ll be sharing dating stories and talking about the biggest issue in their world, because... nothing is simple in your 20s. 
And today on the show they're joined by Social Squad host Tully Smyth  Support the show: https://www.mamamia.com.au/mplus/ See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Introducing: Overshare - Three Women. Too Much Information

Before she was CEO of Krumbled foods and a heavyweight in the lifestyle influencer space, Keira Rumble was following her dreams of becoming a professional skier.
As a teen a serious skiing accident saw Keira go through painstaking recovery and battle health issues. And it was during this time she began to focus on a more holistic approach to her health and wellbeing.
From struggling with fertility, to building a successful business in the wholefood industry, Keira has shared all these moments with her hundreds of thousands of followers.
And it hasn’t been easy.
Keira opens up to Tully about how her childhood shaped her adult spirit, the effect a physically driven upbringing has had on her, and why transparency and authenticity are so important when it comes to speaking to your audience.

How Keira Rumble Went From Tragedy To Triumph

Lorinska Merrington started out as a teacher, specialising in early childhood development and integration for children with special needs.
These days the “Yummy Mummy,” with the best laugh in the business, is a television personality, MC, influencer and reality TV star.
She’s also taking on the coding giants of Silicon Valley with her own app, Bub, which is designed to be the ultimate companion for expectant mums.
With almost 700,000 followers and a feed full of glamorous photos she knows this life could disappear as quickly as it came.  So she works overtime to make sure that she can keep her kids fed, her mortgage paid, and her brand kicking goals.
She opens up to host Tully Smyth about the work that she put into her studies, the networking and the sacrifices she made to get to where she is today.
Plus she does it all with a damaged voice box! So if you’re wondering if she’s okay, we promise she is!

These days, Tegan is a model, presenter, influencer and health coach, who hosts “Girl Code” workshops educating young women about how to be smart online when building a brand.  She wants people to understand the lasting impact that sharing your life online can have on your friends, family and future job opportunities.
Tegan opens up to host Tully Smyth about the difficulties of being in the public eye, having to fight for her career choices, and learning the hard way how much is too much to share online.
