This month Alex Hackett (@Miniswoosh) and Meg Parry (@MegTeksir) attended Sneakerness, Meg went to Off-Print and Alex did the Hackney 5K (Half-Marathon Up Next!). The girls discuss the idea of cultivating and creating IRL community through events such as these and give a lengthy review on Sneaker Freaker’s new book (Spoiler Alert: it’s amazing). This episode, we’re also joined by a special guest — former social media manager of Naked Copenhagen and current social editor for The Face Magazine — Voni Robi. We discuss following your career literally around the world, how important it is to be nice to everyone you meet, the very unglamorous sides of the industry, and generally just what it’s like having a career in social media outside of being an “influencer”. Plot Twist: we all decide that if someone’s not active on social media, it’s a good sign that they’re probably actually just too busy living their best life! Guest suggestions or questions?
