In this episode, Mike chats with Regan Shorter, a talented content creator and storyteller, to explore her journey from a small town in Oklahoma to collaborating with brands like Joby, Adobe Lightroom, and Lingoda. Regan shares how she transitioned from photography to user-generated content (UGC), creating authentic ads that resonate without needing a massive social media following.

They dive into what UGC is, why it’s so impactful in today’s digital world, and how Regan has turned her creative spark into a sustainable career—one that allows her to be location-independent and true to herself. From her time living abroad in France to a surprise moment when her photo ended up on the wall of B&H in New York, Regan’s story is full of inspiring insights for creatives at any stage.

If you’ve ever wondered how to work with brands, make a career out of your passion, or overcome the fear of putting yourself out there, this episode is packed with wisdom, tips, and encouragement.
