Attended my first #CreativeShootout. Brilliant concept, agencies pitch to win a real funded campaign to promote a charity. Congrats @boldspace.bsky.social you smashed it! Tonnes of resonance, cut-through & impact discussed!

The standard of entries for the 2025 Campaign #InspiringWomenAwards is outrageous. Our female peers are making moves and churning out high standard work! Great to be in the room with industry legends/fellow judges. March ceremony here we come! #Awards #CampaignMagazine

#PeopleLikeUs unlocked! It was my first chance to attend and it was as a speaker, on PLU's 5th Birthday no less. Sheeraz Gulsher had built a network of immense value. My fellow speakers spoke on meaningful campaigns and deeply personal topics. 10/10

Strategist career advice from the #GetShitDone panel Ayo Fagbemi: Before you make the jump from the agency, ask the question if you can do the work you want to do where you are, & if there are collaborators & @zoescaman.bsky.social reads: Fandom formula, Mad med, furious women & The motherload

The Christmas season opened with a bang last night at the #WomeninPR pre-xmas party. It was so uplifting to hug, natter and compare notes with comms faces old & new. Including some of my favourite former bosses and peers.

Just recorded a UK podcast 🎙 perhaps my mum might finally understand what I do! 😂 Spoke to Ebony Gayle for #GemsInComms from #PRCA, reflecting on industry progress & wild early advice like "speak posh to clients" 🙄 it reignited my love for comms: Give it a listen www.linkedin.com/posts/ellada...
