Keeping motivated after months of emailing, a sink or swim moment and career pivots with Courtney Smith

Join me as I interview Courtney Smith, Stylist, Creative Director, Presenter and all-round style maven. Speaking with Courtney was an absolute joy, it's hard not to feel motivated by her journey and determination since her fashion shows aged 7. In this episode, Courtney discusses how she went from months of sending emails with no replies, to a cancelled screen test which led to an incredible career opportunity. She’s taken risks, pivoted and always strived to be the best version of herself. I can’t wait for you to hear all the wisdom she shares, which I know is going to help you in your journey.
