Hey World 👋 In this solo episode of Small Creator Big World, I (Becky) talk about why I left journalism for content creation - and why I think other journalists should consider the switch too.
We get into why so many journalists are jumping into podcasts, newsletters, and YouTube, what you gain (and lose) when you leave a newsroom, and why owning your audience matters more than being attached to a big media brand.
If you’re a journalist thinking about your future, or a creator who cares about doing good, credible work on the internet, this one’s for you.
