Mic or Camera Shy? Media without the Spotlight Part I
Description
Mic Shy? Camera Shy? No Problem: Why Media Isn’t Just About the Spotlight - Part I
When people think about “working with the media,” they picture TV lights, live interviews, or influencers pointing at captions on TikTok. But the truth? That’s only a small slice of what media is about.
In this episode, I take you behind the curtain of my own recent conference experience — where I wasn’t representing a brand, I was the brand. I’ll share what I learned from standing at my own booth, talking with dozens of dietitians and health professionals who admitted they weren’t pursuing media… not because they didn’t want to, but because they were afraid.
Inside this episode you’ll hear:
Why fear of being seen holds so many experts back
Why you don’t need a ring light, a blowout, or a million followers to be media savvy
How media is about more than being on stage — it’s about getting your message heard in ways that fit you
If you’ve ever whispered to yourself, “media isn’t for me,” this episode is here to prove otherwise.
Tune in to Part 2 next, where I’ll share the powerful off-camera media roles that could be your perfect fit.
