The following podcast is a DR Media Production.

Welcome back to the Life with Mariana Podcast. I'm your host Mariana Hewitt.

In this episode we've got Cass Demiko, influencer and co-founder of the Jolaryline Forum.

Her Instagram feed is so inspiring and her pieces have been worn by some of your favorite

celebrities. Cass shares her tips for aspiring influencers, how to get reposted on Instagram,

and the first steps in starting a Jolary brand.

Cass, thank you so much for joining us today. Hi, I'm so excited to be on.

I'm so excited. So we actually met, I don't know if it was two years ago now on a revolve trip.

Yes. Those two summers ago. And I just remember, I had never met you before.

And I was just like, wow, her style is so cool. She's so fit. Like, who is this girl?

And it's funny on revolve trips because I think people think like you all hang out with each other,

but unless you actually speak to other people, you can be on the same trip with people and not

even really get to know them. So I was like, the one in your Instagram and I was like, she's so

cool. And that's how I started following you. Amazing. Yeah. And I have to give you props that you've

always been so beyond supportive and just so genuine, which I don't think is that common in the

space, like you've always just been so kind and supportive and nice and always willing to help,

which I think is so important in this industry. Thank you. Well, that's really why I wanted to

start this podcast because I feel like I've set your great network of friends and like, I love to

help other people. And so hopefully in this episode today, people will leave with a little bit more

help for whatever it is they're trying to do. So first, I want to talk about you being an influencer,

and then you turn business owner because I think there's a lot of people who either want to do one

or the other. So before you started your career as an influencer, you were working as a buyer?
