Social Media is a Lottery Ticket: Lessons from Natalie Gee of Gee Beauty

In this episode of the Creator Method Podcast, Gary sits down with Natalie Gee, the co-founder of Gee Beauty, a multi-generational, female-founded lifestyle and beauty brand that has grown from a single Toronto studio into a global name with flagship locations in Miami and retail distribution across Nordstrom, Neiman Marcus, and beyond. In this conversation, Natalie opens up about growing up in an entrepreneurial household, watching her parents build businesses from nothing, and how that early exposure shaped her work ethic and creativity. She shares the story of launching Gee Beauty with her mother and sisters, their bold leap into Miami’s ultra-competitive luxury market, and the challenges and lessons learned while expanding from family business to international brand. But Natalie’s journey is also deeply personal. She reveals how she overcame her initial fear of being on camera, why she calls social media a “guaranteed lottery ticket,” and how consistency transformed her from hesitant beginner to confident content creator. She speaks candidly about balancing entrepreneurship with motherhood, her partnership with her wife Rachel, and why authenticity and storytelling remain at the core of her brand and personal platform. Discover how Natalie leverages family, community, and content to scale a beauty empire, why she believes content creation is the new language of human communication, and how embracing imperfection can be the secret to growth. From entrepreneurship and content strategy to personal resilience and reinvention, Natalie’s story is both inspiring and practical for creators at every stage.
