Episode 51: What a Family of explorers taught me about being seen, with Philippa Ross

Ever struggled to explain what you actually do in one sentence? Or felt like your story wasn't "interesting enough" to share? In this episode, my guest Philippa Ross and I dissect the messy middle of authentic visibility, the part where you question the labels, navigate the pressure to be polished, and wonder if anyone’s even listening. Philippa’s own personal journey includes everything from podcasting and personal development to a family history rooted in literal polar exploration. We examine what it really takes to build a brand with depth, communicate with clarity, and show up when it feels uncomfortable. From the emotional impact of negative feedback and the importance of separating personal feelings from professional criticism, we’re covering the real stuff behind the glossy content. There’s some incredible personal stories in this one that you won’t want to miss!   NOTES: You can find out more about Philippa here Download 50 ways to get free publicity Visit The Brand Story House website Follow Amanda on Instagram Check out The PR Academy for your 7 day free trial!
