Finding Balance and Staying Authentic with Carly Flynn

In this episode of the Beyond Broadcast Podcast, I speak with Carly Flynn, a journalist, broadcaster and TV presenter from New Zealand.

Known for her work on Nightline, Sunrise, 3News as well as her presenting roles with TV3’s Target, Choice TV's Cook the Books and The Healthy Food Guide.

Carly’s career journey has seen her pivot into various roles and display resilience in the unpredictable world of media.

Throughout the conversation, she emphasizes the value of camaraderie in the newsroom and the evolving landscape of journalism today.

We also touch on the pressures of public perception and the oddity of journalists being pseudo celebrities in New Zealand and the impact of viewer habits on news presentation.

She also opened up about the challenges that the industry can have on mental health and the importance of empowering and mentoring the next generation of journalists.
