483. The Truth About Being an Influencer with Quigley

Quigley tries on roles like beautiful outfits. She’s a singer/performer, blogger, influencer, and creative director. Yet, even with all the accomplishments, glamorous gowns, and a blue tick on Instagram, there are times when Quigley doesn’t feel like she’s enough.  When those moments arise, she’s not afraid to lift the veil. If you thought influencers were all #ad posts and destination trips, this conversation will most definitely make you reassess that stance. There are ugly tears, fights, and f*** ups.  In this episode, Quigley opens up about her journey from American Idol to motherhood, reflecting on the moment she decided to go all-in on her career (and double her salary in the process) and why she leans into the big sister/mentor energy on social media. Plus, we get her behind-the-scenes takes on parenthood, sexuality as a mother, and talk about her new mission to help people connect on social media.  We also talk about: Surviving American Idol  The truth about being an influencer How Quigley found her gifts as a content creator  Social media boundaries and mental health Advice for creating content online  Pregnancy, motherhood, and sexuality  Sponsors: Get discount codes sent directly to your phone.
