If you’ve ever struggled with knowing your worth, or how much to charge, or how much work you should be doing for free, you’ll wanna give this one a listen.

In this episode, we tackle the hot topic of Instagram verification and ask the question: "Should you get verified by Instagram?"

In recent years, Instagram verification has become somewhat of a social media status symbol. The elusive blue checkmark next to a user's handle is often seen as a mark of authenticity, influence, and credibility. And now, Meta has just released a subscription so almost anyone can be verified and enjoy the blue tick next to their name.

But is it really worth the hype? That's what we aim to find out.

Join our guest, a social media expert, as we delve into the pros and cons of getting verified on Instagram. We'll discuss the various requirements and criteria for verification, such as having a significant following, being a public figure or celebrity, and having the right account. We'll also explore the benefits of being verified, such as increased visibility, trustworthiness, and potential for brand collaborations.

But it's not all glitz and glamour. We'll also delve into the downsides of seeking verification, including the potential negative impact.
