S2E02. Brand Building, Media Magic & PR Secrets with Katie Braden

Let's Get Ugly by Trishna and Disha Daswaney

Episode notes

Katie takes us through her journey from juggling multiple jobs to building a successful freelance PR career over the past decade. We get into the rise of boutique agencies, the shift toward authenticity in influencer marketing, and how social media is reshaping the industry. Plus, we take a trip down memory lane to one of our Kohl Kreatives workshops in a high-security prison—an unforgettable experience where we got to share our work with Katie firsthand.
