Spent a few days in LA for CreatorIQ Connect — a two-day conference all about the future of the creator economy.

Biggest takeaway? Follower count is out. Fit is in. Brands care more about authenticity, storytelling, and real alignment than just numbers.

Truly a dream experience meeting incredible brands, creators, and one of my favorite beauty founders, Danessa Myricks.
