"Gardening in a lot of ways is like social media. You're constantly learning and experimenting and every year is so different. Every year you get a little bit better but every year you're thrown a lot of curveballs." Jennifer Strecker
In this conversation, I catch up with prior co-worker, friend, and social media professional, Jennifer Strecker who has led a successful and colorful career in social media with a Fortune 500 bank!
My level of fandom for Jennifer becomes very clear in the first few minutes of this episode and she's earned every ounce of it.
Jennifer generously shares her insights from her social media career journey, talks about how her team has grown and is growing to accommodate the changing social media industry, how she battles moments of imposter syndrome when it comes to being involved in high-stakes/high-profile projects, and also shares advice for those seeking a career in social media.
If you're curious about a taste of working in corporate social media, this conversation will be right up your alley.
It's jam packed with quotable moments, cheesy metaphors and applicable takeaways for any level of social media practitioners.

CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist
It’s 1996 in rural North Carolina, and an oddball crew makes history when they pull off America’s third largest cash heist. But it’s all downhill from there. Join host Johnny Knoxville as he unspools a wild and woolly tale about a group of regular ‘ol folks who risked it all for a chance at a better life. CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist answers the question: what would you do with 17.3 million dollars? The answer includes diamond rings, mansions, velvet Elvis paintings, plus a run for the border, murder-for-hire-plots, and FBI busts.
