Leana Deeb built an audience of 10M followers in 14 months. Then, she made the kind of pivot most creators are terrified of: she deleted everything.
In this episode, Leana - creator, podcast host, and entrepreneur - talks about why she walked away from the identity everyone knew her for, how starting with a blank slate was the greatest thing that has ever happened to her career, and how staying true to her faith grew her audience instead of shrinking it.
Jun and Leana also get into the parts people don’t see: watching your numbers drop, mastering detachment, staying disciplined when life gets heavy, becoming “the niche”, and the pressure of becoming successful young while taking care of your family.
This one is for the creators who know they’re ready for a shift but are too scared of what they might lose.
