In this episode, Lydia sits down with Carolyn Baqué. Born in France and fluent in the language of sports PR, Carolyn is the co-founder of 22 Agency, a new image PR firm representing athletes with strategy and soul.

With over a decade of experience across media and sport, Carolyn helps players become more than performers, but her journey didn’t start here. She once dreamt of being a TV journalist… until she realized that dream wasn’t truly hers. That moment of clarity led to a powerful redirection, one that brought her to working in PR for the World Cup and some of the top names in rugby.

In this episode, Carolyn shares: 

• What it’s really like working in sports PR (and why she loves it)
• How to pivot when your “dream job” turns out not to be your dream
• The story of how the PR world found her ...through a famous athlete and THE World Cup
• Her silent Vipassana retreat in New Zealand—and how it helped her reconnect to herself, presence, and purpose

Plus, travel stories, thoughts on intuition, and what it means to build a brand with passion.
