Laura Brown - Editor in Chief of InStyle Magazine on Producing a Magazine and Being Your Best Self

Laura Brown is the Editor in Chief of InStyle, one of the world's most successful fashion media brands. I've been, stalking, I mean following her on IG for quite some time. I simply adore how authentically herself she is and it made me curious to know what is it like to produce a new magazine issue month after month, year after year. So, in my true caca form, I slide into Laura's DMs and low and behold, she said yes.  You may be wondering what the fancy Editor in Chief of a top international publication doing on a podcast about producers?  Turns out the ethos behind producing a magazine is very congruent with producing a film.  The emotional labor, team effort, and creativity needed to pull off an issue each month is nothing short of a miracle. Sort of like the miracle required to make a film. Laura spent 11 years at Harpers Bazaar before being appointed to this role in August of 2016. She is responsible for InStyle's voice and helming a brand that reaches 30-plus million women. She also leads development of the 'InStyle Badass Women' platform and hosts InStyle's weekly podcast 'Ladies First' Does she sleep? How much wine does she consume? How did she find time to squeeze me in? All great questions I don't have the answers to... But, what I can give you is her lovely insights into leading life and work with joy, making sure you are going into a profession for the right reasons, and how being yourself is your greatest weapon.  Enjoy the laughs & lessons.
