Ep 19: MICRO-MOMENTS with Georgia Frances King

A LOT TO SAY PODCAST

Georgia Frances King joins to talk both about her career journey (of which there is a stark delineation between a lifestyle career and a technology career) as well as talk through the experiences she has witnessed in 2020 from her front row seat in New York City as the USA experiences a time of great upheaval and struggle.

Georgia talks about the micro-moments we experience, the perception of media outlets by a media professional, helping people craft their stories by honing their ideas and of course, embracing your inner nerd! From Editor at Kinfolk to Ideas Editor at Quartz to Literary Agent and more, its a cool chat charting the winding series of experiences earned and the stories accumulated along the way.

A few points in the chit-chat:

1. A year of living through bushfires, social movements, lockdowns, political upheaval, quarantines and what else?
2. The year that was and its impact on New York neighbourhoods
3. Micro-moment memories from throughout 2020
4. Perception of media from a media professional
5. Helping people craft their stories by writing books and hone their ideas
6. Achieving balance in life (and maybe an obsession with spreadsheets)
7. Where to find the motivation in a high energy engagement role (that gets exhausting)
8. Getting stuck into the linear career path explanation…
9. The feeling of being on a stage, up in lights
10. A dichotomy/ connection between career leaps
11. Embracing the inner nerd
12. Unthethering ourselves from the expectations of the future and being with ourselves in the present
