Think you need to be an extrovert, a supermodel or have 10 years of experience to get quoted in the media? Think again.
In this empowering episode of the Media Savvy Podcast, I’m busting 5 of the most common myths that hold brilliant, talented people back from becoming media contributors, podcast guests, brand partners, and go-to experts.
We’ll cover:
- Why introverts thrive in media
- How to show up—even if you don’t want to show your face on camera
- Why perfection is the enemy of progress
- How to stand out in a saturated space
- And why YOU (yes, you) can (and should) pitch yourself—without a publicist, agent or manager
Plus, I’ll share real-life stories from my media journey and clients I’ve coached, along with practical tips you can use right now to take your next step.
If this episode lights a fire in you, let’s talk. Book a discovery call and let’s uncover how to build your media brand and your bank account—on your terms. My contact info is in the show notes or DM me on Instagram @BTDmedia.
Tune in, take notes, and let’s turn your voice into visibility.
And by the way—you’re looking mighty media savvy today.

Are You A Charlotte?
In 1997, actress Kristin Davis’ life was forever changed when she took on the role of Charlotte York in Sex and the City. As we watched Carrie, Samantha, Miranda and Charlotte navigate relationships in NYC, the show helped push once unacceptable conversation topics out of the shadows and altered the narrative around women and sex. We all saw ourselves in them as they searched for fulfillment in life, sex and friendships. Now, Kristin Davis wants to connect with you, the fans, and share untold stories and all the behind the scenes. Together, with Kristin and special guests, what will begin with Sex and the City will evolve into talks about themes that are still so relevant today. "Are you a Charlotte?" is much more than just rewatching this beloved show, it brings the past and the present together as we talk with heart, humor and of course some optimism.
