Pip Stewart on Creating a Lifestyle Career, and Making Social Media Work for You.
Ever wondered how to become a so-called “influencer”? The secret is storytelling.
In this episode, Ash interviews his friend and co-host, Pip Stewart.
Pip has cycled halfway around the world, embarked on a world-first kayak journey through the Amazon and survived a flesh-eating parasite. She talks about how she accidentally fell into a career in travel journalism, how one massive adventure changed her life, and why she sees social media as the route to editorial independence.
In this episode, discover:
Why you need to embrace being shit.
If it’s important to get a journalism degree.
Why hustle is key.
Why social media is so powerful (and how to avoid its dark side).
How Pip got a job as Red Bull’s Adventure Editor.
How to get noticed in a crowded media world.
How to create a lifestyle career that works for you.
Why you should take online relationships offline.
How to deal with your ego.
How to become an influencer.
