Jackie Frank – from beautician to publishing icon at 21

Making the leap from beautician to Founding Editor of a global magazine at 21 isn’t a typical career path for most, but it was the start of a life of reinvention for publishing icon Jackie Frank. Jackie sits down with host Elle Ferguson to share how she made the decision to publish powerful and confronting stories that hadn't been seen before in the pages of a glossy magazine like marie clare, how she helped pioneer paid maternity leave in Australia and why she walked away from an iconic magazine and into the world of digital to create Be Frank Group. *Spoiler Alert* This episode contains stories of lobbyists campaigning to remove Jackie as Editor, why she put her New York dreams on hold to take the lead at marie clare and advice about the importance of staying curious, authentic and moving with the world as it rapidly changes!
