Amplifying Marginalized Voices & Telling Untold Stories with Cher Hale

Welcome to today's show! We're thrilled to introduce our guest, Cher Hale, the founder and director of Ginkgo PR, an agency dedicated to using public relations to create a more equitable media landscape. Cher, a Taiwanese Black American woman, is passionate about amplifying the voices of historically excluded authors and entrepreneurs and is committed to amplifying the voices of those from marginalized communities in the media.

Cher shares her personal journey and the inspiration behind founding Ginkgo PR and how this deeply influenced her mission to support those who lack a platform or privilege in sharing their authentic stories. We also dive into her unique cultural background and how it influences her approach to public relations and storytelling.

Join us as we talk about the current media landscape, what trends Cher is seeing such as the rise of independent magazines,  the power of podcast guesting, and how to stand out by telling authentic, real stories that people need to hear. Cher is a true trailblazer in the media space and we are so excited for you to listen to this episode.
