Adele Maree - Becoming a Full Time Content Creator and Podcast Host, the Dark Side of Fame, the Power of Therapy, & Content Creation Strategy

What does it take to quit a safe corporate job and become a full-time content creator, and what does fame cost you? I sat down with Melbourne creator Adele Maree, host of the Your Safe Space podcast, who left her role as a business development manager in September 2022.

Adele shares how she grew to 70,000 TikTok followers by filming her breakup and healing, why she launched her podcast four weeks before she quit and how it went to number one on Spotify, and what happened when a stranger posted her home address on a TikTok live. We talk about the therapy that pulled her through panic attacks, the breathing and cold water tricks that helped, and the line from her psychologist that keeps her grounded.

She finishes with her rules for anyone starting out: show up, stay consistent, be yourself and treat a flop as data.
