Summary
My guest today is Sara Tasker. Photographer, writer, business coach and author. She left her NHS day job six years ago to take a leap into the unknown to turn her passion for the Internet into a business. Now, three years on, she's been awarded runner up for Natwest’s Creative Entrepreneur of the Year Award, and won Content of the Year in the Cosmopolitan Influencer Awards in April 2018. Her work has been featured in The Guardian, The Independent, Buzzfeed, Stylist Magazine, Mother & Baby and on BBC Radio 4.
She has a podcast called Hashtag Authentic, and now she also has a book with the same name, out now, with so many incredible pieces of advice on how grow and build your own online platform with specific tips on Instagram.
She lives in rural Yorkshire with her husband and her daughter, Orla. Her website (meandorla.co.uk) is her online journal; a record of thoughts, revelations, recipes, shopping lists and opinion pieces.
