Sam Feher, Cosmo editor and Insta influencer, spills her secrets to success

Get ready for brunch with me and Sam Feher (@samanthafeher) as we chat about career building, fashion and adulting - over a few glasses of sauvignon blanc, of course. The 22-year-old graduated from Elon University in Dec. 2018 with a degree in journalism. Now she’s Jessica Pels’, the editor-in-chief of Cosmo, assistant and has 3 side hustles. Nope, that’s not a typo.

 

In this hour-long episode, Sam shares her thoughts on the importance of networking (13:00), her first NYFW experience with Caitlyn Jenner and Aya Kanai (15:00), how giving up a day drink resulted in landing her dream job at Cosmo (18:00, 26:00) and the very real struggle of scoring a summer internship (23:00).

 

On top of her full-time job, Sam is a content creator on Instagram (34:00). Her claim to Insta-fame kickstarted when @totalfratmove reposted one of her pictures. Fast forward three years, Sam found herself making over $20,000 during her senior year through Instagram. She also owns a super cute online boutique called @eatbrunchclub (39:00) and is a brand consultant for a company that supports emerging fashion designers (43:00).

 

How does she do it all while maintaining a social and love life? Sam spills her secrets to success (46:00).
