Her love for creating has pushed her to create Hannah Phillips Media, where she has created value for the Pittsburgh Thunderbirds, the United States Tennis Association, as well as Praxis to name a few. She is also the co-founder and Chief Creative Officer for Piper Creatives, a marketing agency that provides strategy, delivery, and analysis of content creation to help other businesses leverage the power of podcasts, blogs, and LinkedIn to grow their brands. Hannah lives with the mindset “the goal isn’t to live forever, it is to create something that will.” Her every action is fueled to build a legacy…she is truly an inspiring individual, so I invite you to listen in as we reflect on her journey to learn how to utilize your passions and goals to build something much bigger than yourself and leave a legacy.

Just work on doing things for you and developing skills while doing it. In this episode of Nat Chat, I’m joined by Hannah Phillips. Hannah started her own media company while still in high school which began with photography. Not long after, it quickly grew into branding and social media management, as well.

She did end up going through Praxis, which was discussed in my episodes with Zak Slayback and Aaron Watson. Through it all, she’s been able to develop her skills in photography, media, and social media marketing, and grow this business that’s supporting her, despite her only being 20 years old. Hannah is an excellent person to learn from for those of you with a creative ability or for those that just want to get into something entrepreneurial.
