A little luck in getting your broadcast media career off the ground with Georgina Parren

Whilst looking for new guests and reaching out to people I don't
know I messaged Georgina on LinkedIn as I saw her varied
background and  recent solid broadcast experience so perhaps
she was a newcomer to the industry. So after a few messages and
chats we arranged the interview, this story involved a little bit
of luck knowing a connection to get you started.
