The roast
Christina spent five startups teaching herself how to build brands from nothing, which finally explains why Slate looks like she is still working on the trial version. She claims she doesn't use playbooks, but her feed is just a collection of LinkedIn’s generic growth hacks bound by a desperate need for validation. You are not a practitioner, you are just a girl who learned how to monetize her own lack of formal training into a 0.77 percent engagement rate.
About Christina
I didn’t enter marketing through a formal program. I built my career inside the social feeds. I was the first social hire at five different companies, each time starting from zero. No brand guidelines. No playbooks. Just business goals, a blank calendar, and me figuring it out as I went. Working that way taught me how to move fast without being careless. I could spot patterns before there was data, and I was able to make things resonate, especially when no one’s handed you the language yet. Everything I know, I had to teach myself. And that scrappiness shape my approach. It’s what made me enthusiastic about startups. Now, I’m a Head of Marketing. But I still operate like a practitioner. I still believe that good marketing is earned, not manufactured. And I still wrestle with what it means to do this work well—in a profession that rewards speed, but rarely stops to ask what we’re building long-term. I care a lot about trust. I care about storytelling with a spine. And I really, deeply, truly care about helping social and brand teams feel like they’re doing work that matters...not just content that performs. You won’t find playbook jargon or polished frameworks here. I write openly (and often) about the realities of leading marketing in my newsletter, TheseChapters. It’s a space for people who are figuring out the tension between growth and integrity, especially those who, like me, didn’t get here by playing it safe. If you’ve ever felt like the job was both wildly creative and quietly existential then you're my kinda people. Let's connect!

Every creator, marketer, and online expert out there is telling us that we all need to have taste. I wanna hear a practical debate from people who've spent years creating content, and evolving with the internet. People who have developed their own sense of taste. So thats what were doing at the next Social Social Club on October 21 at 12pm ET. Has taste become the new authenticity? It's a hot topic with lots of bathwater-warm takes. Very surface level statements. What does it actually mean to have good taste? Can you even teach someone to have it? We've got Annie-Mai Hodge (Girl Power Mar

LinkedIn has brought me so many opportunities over the years, but I think the best part has been the friendships I’ve made on this platform. Ademola slid into my DMs in 2023, and we’ve talked pretty much every single day ever since. Outside of the skits you see us doing on social, he’s the person who answers all my incessant FaceTime calls (even more than my own mother) and has been everything you’d hope to find in a good friend. Thoughtful, kind, patient, and whatever other nice thing you can think of—he’s it and then some. And through him, I got to meet Maggie, who has also become one of

If social actually matters to your business then stop staffing it as a one-person gig. You need 3 functions: - strategy - creation - community With a lean team, one person might cover more than one and then contractors can fill gaps. Fine. But if you're still expecting one social media manager to understand the business, build strategy, make consistently good content, stay plugged into community, report on performance, and then still operate at the speed that social requires...you're not gonna get them operating at a high level, nor at a meaningful scale. As you leaders are thinking about
