On this episode is Bella Jewell, who first came to me as a remote intern during the pandemic. She was soon getting paid work as part of the podcast team I created and moved on to freelance for the likes of Sky News, Euronews and various other large brands. Bella then came back to me for a Media Mentor session to look at how she could move from freelancing into a full-time role. On this episode we discuss how hard she found that transition and reflect back on how she maxmised her time as an intern with my news team to then get paid work.
