Things Every Creator Goes Through (And How to Get Through Them) with Jordyn Rush

Many creators simply don’t know what they’re getting into when they get into this industry. Not growing quickly, low engagement rates, constant imposter syndrome, trying to “niche down”, the frequent rejection from brands we’ve been working hard to impress - these are all struggles that creators everywhere deal with incredibly frequently.

With a background in both sales and marketing, Jordyn has been able to take her social media career full-time in 2 years.
