Georgia Rickard on influencing, without being an 'influencer'

In this week's episode, co-hosts Rachel and Lynne chat with Georgia Rickard, an award-winning journalist turned content strategist.

the importance of building a personal brand
the challenges of making oneself visible online,
and the evolving landscape of freelancing with the rise of AI

She also talks about how and why she set up Georgia's Media Circle, and her upcoming event, Brand Camp, which is designed to help creatives build and monetise their personal brands. It's all about the value of authenticity, confidence, and adapting to new industry trends.
