About this listen

I was offered a paid brand deal — and I said no.

Not because I hate working with brands.Not because I’m trying to look virtuous.But because I was asked to say I loved something I hadn’t tested or used in my real workflow.

In this episode of The Loud Lens, I talk honestly about standards in online creation, the difference between influencers and real ambassadors, and why trust matters more than short-term campaigns.

This isn’t a brand-bashing episode. It’s a conversation about credibility, long-term partnerships, and why honesty makes better marketing — for creators and brands.

If you’re a creator feeling pressured to perform enthusiasm, or a brand looking for partners people actually believe, this one’s for you.
