So much great advice!

I’m a editor and content strategist working in higher ed, and there are *so* many themes discussed on this show that I’m able to apply to my work—particularly advice on knowing your audience and maintaining brand identity across platforms. Jenny offers an authentic and kind perspective on the intricacies of this unique work; listening to her feels like I’m listening my professional big sister.
