She enlightens us on the power of working with different mediums because opening yourself up to opportunities in different paths can give you opportunities on your main path. We also discuss socials strategies because we know you want it! She helps us realize vanity metrics aren't as important as real, dedicated follower engagement and how powerful online connections can be.
