Okay, besties — this one’s a little spicy. Today I’m joined by my producer Marie from Your Girl Media and Culture Cult Show and we’re calling out the big ol’ ego problem in the creator space: choosing clout over alignment. If you’ve ever been ghosted, judged by your follower count, or felt stuck pitching your services as a travel creator, UGC creator, or content creator, this episode is for you.We get into:Why follower count ≠ real opportunity (spoiler: it’s all about alignment).The red flags to look out for when pitching UGC services.The art of how to pitch so you actually get a response.Why networking is just making friends (yes, it’s that simple).Shifting from desperation to fun when you’re building your content creation business.You’ll walk away with practical pitching tips, mindset shifts for content creators, and a reminder that genuine connections will take you further than any vanity metric ever will.Connect with Marie:Follow her biz: @yourgirlmediaFollow her digital nomad life: @culturecultshowWebsite: www.yourgirlmedia.comCheck out her show: Culture Cult Show Let’s connect: I’m building something I’ve never seen before for creators — a community just for travel creators who are ready to scale beyond the basics.
