    S9 Ep21: Building Trust In The Creator Economy - Compliance, Certification And Safer Influencer Marketing Ft. Murphy Hopkins-Hubbard

    In this episode of Influence Global, Gordon speaks with Murphy Hopkins Hubbard, CEO and founder of Stamp, about one of the biggest challenges in the creator economy: trust, compliance and creator protection. Murphy shares her background in social impact, finance and enterprise, and explains how that experience led her to build Stamp — a certification and toolkit designed to help creators, brands and agencies navigate influencer marketing more responsibly. The conversation explores the pressures creators face when operating largely alone, from online abuse and cancellation risk to the lack of legal, PR and compliance support that traditional media professionals often have behind them. Murphy outlines how Stamp helps solve these issues through a three-part process: self-assessment, bite-sized education through “Stamp School”, and in-depth auditing of creators’ content and conduct. Rather than relying only on vanity metrics, Stamp aims to provide a more objective and nuanced view of whether a creator is brand-safe, compliant and aligned with the values they present online. Gordon and Murphy also discuss the growing risks in regulated sectors such as finance, health, gambling and nutrition, where unqualified creators can cause real harm by sharing misleading advice. They debate the balance between enforcement and support, agreeing that while rules matter, creators also need easier access to the right guidance and tools. The episode highlights why trust infrastructure will become increasingly important as the influencer marketing industry matures — and why compliance, accountability and authenticity must become part of the creator ecosystem by default.

    S9 Ep20: Doctor Creators Share Their Amazing Journey Ft. Dr. Lydie & Dr. Hazal

    Gordon is joined by London-based duo Dr. Lydie and Dr. Hazal — doctors, founders and twenty-something entrepreneurs—who met in 2017 while applying to medical school. Coming from low socioeconomic, state-school backgrounds, they bonded over the inequalities in access to guidance and decided to document their journey to help others navigate both getting into medical school and sustaining the demanding five-year degree. They share how that honest, “show the full picture” approach built a loyal community and translated into a successful creator business, including brand partnerships with names like Dell, Post Office (a trip to Turkey) and Philips. The conversation explores the upsides and pressures of social media, with their reminder that “the grass is greener wherever you water it” and the importance of digital detoxes for mental health. Hazel and Lydia also discuss getting into property investing early through disciplined saving and relentless learning. Finally, they look ahead: growing their podcast into a network for ambitious women, expanding property portfolios, and experimenting unapologetically throughout their twenties.

Instead, the focus is shifting towards engagement quality, audience relevance and long-term value. Gordon and Sega also explore the importance of authenticity and trust in creator relationships. They discuss why one-off campaigns are becoming less effective and how sustained partnerships between brands and creators can deliver stronger results and deeper community connections. Transparency, fair compensation and ethical use of data are highlighted as essential foundations for future growth.The episode concludes with a forward-looking view of the influencer marketing landscape, emphasising the need for smarter analytics, global best practices and a more sustainable, community-led approach as the creator economy continues to mature.
