Summary

Episode 231: In this long-anticipated podcast meet-up, Natalie and content guru Jen Lauren finally sit down for a catch-up in NYC! They share their experiences and insights on the content creator life and the importance of authenticity. Jen, who once worked in PR, opens up about her journey from struggling financially as a freelancer to finding stability in a 9-5 job while still managing her own podcast and YouTube channel on the side. She provides valuable tips for promoting podcasts, drawn from her current role as a video editor at Dear Media where she works solely on "The Skinny Confidential Him and Her Podcast" with Lauryn and Michael Bosstick. The conversation takes a hilarious turn when Jen gets candid about the trouble she got into recently after giving a not-so-complimentary TikTok review of a popular workout class.
