Join me as I interview Gina Jackson, travel writer, content creator, and the author of two books: 'British Boutique Hotels' and 'London Hotels'. If you're familiar with Gina's blog and Instagram, you'll understand when I say I want to dive into every one of the beautiful photos she shares. During this episode, Gina discusses how consistency and creating her own opportunities have led to some incredible career moments, including becoming an author. This conversation is a lesson in not being afraid to put yourself out there and asking yourself what is the worse that can happen - I really hope it gives you some encouragement on your journey to pursue something you've been thinking about for a while.
