In today's day and age it feels like for women there is a fork in the road. You can either throw yourself in the career lane, or as time ticks and the pressure of starting a family grows you can wonder down the relationship and in-turn fertility road, which is always unknown and never a certain outcome. If you sit in the middle and cross between the two paths, it can often feel like you are never executing either path, well enough. Taryn Williams is now an established and renowned CEO and successful entrepreneur of multiple companies, who has firmly established her place on the career path through sheer grit and determination and gone from strength to strength. Taryn's journey started out by being scouted for modelling at the age of 15, to then opening her own modelling agency WINK models at the age of 21 and turning it into an industry juggernaut that is known for inclusivity, diversity and equality for their models. Her focus then moved to founding companies such as the right.fit connecting brands directly to creators, and The Influencers Agency, selling the latter two companies in 2023, only to throw her energy into her next venture #Gifted - a business model that tackles the world of branded gifting and influencers content. Taryn's conquests in business have provided her security, admiration of her peers and career longevity. But the question begs about the path not taken in her personal journey. In previous interviews Taryn has been an open book, questioning why her worth is attached to her career success, what the journey has been like in freezing her eggs and her awareness and desire for more balance and commitment to being present in her personal life.    Rebecca Bull – Creator / Executive Producer / Co-Host Zoe Weir – Co-Creator / Co – Host Sophie Jackson – Producer  Social Media – Naughty Nancy Social Media Agency Website / Brand Design – Foster Creative Video Editor – Luke MorganSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

She received the President's Scholarship at Cal State Long Beach and began helping those who were formerly incarcerated find scholarships to go to college.Her story is compelling and she is bolding telling it with the hopes that companies will be more inclined to hire former felons.

In this episode, host Shahin Hoda chats with Taryn Williams, founder and CEO of WINK Models and theright.fit, about the development of influencer marketing in the B2B space. As the founder of two multi-million dollar businesses, Taryn is a passionate and visionary leader, utilising technology to drive greater connectivity and fair outcomes for models and influencers across the media, marketing and advertising industries. In 2007, at age 21 and with $30,000 in savings, Taryn launched WINK Models, her response to inefficiencies in working conditions for models plus a lack of flexibility and quality service offered to clients. Over a decade later, the agency continues to be one of Australia and Asia Pacific's most recognised, with more than 650 models on its books and turnover in the millions. With a focus on helping talent to gain more control over job selection and being fairly paid, theright.fit, is a marketplace connecting brands to creative talent and influencers.

During the height of the COVID-19 pandemic, parents, children, and educators navigated virtual learning while trying to balance unprecedented stress and uncertainty.Many children have returned to in-person school settings, but much of the anxiety remains.In this episode, we speak with Nike Anderson, a homeschooling expert, and Taryn Williams, a veteran of the public education system, as they give insights to help parents support their child's emotional wellness while balancing academic success.This discussion also explores the increase in home schooling among Black families and outlines how parents can determine the best learning environment for their child.CONTENT WARNINGS:Mention of suicide GUESTS: Nike Andersonwww.thehomeschoolgenius.comInstagram: @the_homeschool_genius Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/thenikeandersonTwitter: @NikeAnderson7LinkedIn: @Nike-AndersonPinterest: @TheNikeAndersonTaryn WilliamsFOR MORE INFORMATION Watch and subscribe on the she.confidential YouTube channel.Visit https://sheconfidential.com/ for additional episode details. Follow @she.confidential on Instagram and  FaceBookNOTEThe show is being rebranded from On Her Terms Defined to SheConfidential 

After working as a model and producer since the age of 15, Taryn Williams was frustrated by the inefficiencies in the industry, with late payment common practice and jobs few and far between. So at the age of 21, she founded WINK Models with the company policy to pay all models within seven days, and include diversity in the representation. The business was completely bootstrapped and WINK now has over 650 talent nationally. Taryn quickly realised how important technology was to directly connect creative talent with brands and agencies. So she created her second business – The Right Fit, a marketplace of over 9000 influencers, models, actors and photographers all in one place, to make booking a creative campaign easy and cost effective. I ask Taryn how both WINK and The Right Fit aim to revolutionise the creative industry, how this year has affected her businesses with an accelerated shift towards digital, and how they deliver value and convenience to both their creative talent and clients.

The Canadian band, Rush, had a song called Totem from Test for Echo. Two lines from that song influenced me. "Media Messiah's preying on my fears" and "pop culture prophets playing in my ear". There are two articles I read and want to give them credit. * Frontline fallout series, The Right Fit by Taryn Williams and Glossy Magazine. In this podcast I discuss going beyond what we see and feel. Try to understand you are being influenced to buy a product or an idea through entertainment. Instagram, youtube, tik to and the like have people convincing you to buy ideas and things they may not even believe it. For your health and happiness be diligent. Separate the idea that Kim Kardashian wearing or holding a product or idea is one that you want to hold. You be you boo-boo [Kevin hart].

Hard work, savvy, and flair, three words that are highly appropriate for this episode's guest, Taryn Williams. Taryn took us through her very interesting journey which, aside from founding two highly successful businesses (Wink Models / The Right Fit), included earning a pilot's licence at the age of 15!

Condoms… remember those things!? Okay, now that you remember them, do you know how they’re made or what the ingredients are? If you answered no, you’re not alone. I have been a condom advocate for a long time and have suffered through my fair share of condom shaming. I love having this platform so we can educate ourselves, our partners, and our friends while also debunking these meritless stigmas around condoms. This week I am joined by Taryn Williams, a PR specialist at @BCondoms . B Condom is the only black-owned and operated organic condom company. Join us as we talk about condom shaming, ingredients, consumer shifts, and so much more!

This is Episode 3 and our first episode for the year 2020. And I don’t think there is a better way to kick it off than with Taryn Williams, one of Australia’s most popular female entrepreneurs and digital influencers. Taryn is the epitome of ‘influence and personal branding done right’. She is a long standing client and supporter of The PR Hub, and someone I consider myself very fortunate to call a friend. At the age of fifteen, Taryn was scouted by a modelling agency, and began working on international assignments for the likes of Qantas, Virgin and other global brands. While modelling, she developed an interest in entrepreneurship, which inspired her to start her first business, Wink Models, in 2007, at the age of 21, with $30,000 of her own savings. In 2016 Taryn launched her second business, theright.fit, a two-sided marketplace connecting brands with creative talent and influencers. Not long after she successfully negotiated a significant investment round led by Airtree Ventures. Taryn is an in demand keynote speaker and as an ambassador and influencer she has worked with global brands including Max Factor, La Prairie, Lamborghini, Nancy Ganz, Franck Provost and the Art Series Hotel Group. She has received numerous awards including the 2018 Mumbrella Award for Innovation and B&T Women in Media - leader in tech. It has been a pleasure and an inspiration to watch Taryn build these two businesses from the ground up, and in this episode she reveals how they each required a completely different approach, from the DIY ethos of WINK to raising upfront capital for a high-growth tech startup. We also talk about how Taryn manages her own personal brand in relation to her businesses own identities, and why you should behave like you’re in ‘permanent beta’ Leave feedback or get in touch here:   Samantha Dybac Managing Director and founder The PR Hub www.theprhub.com.au/podcast https://www.instagram.com/influenceunlockedpodcast/ https://www.linkedin.com/in/samanthadybac/   Producer: Andrew Menczel http://www.piccolopodcasts.com.au/

AT THE INTERSECTION OF CONNECTION. This week I am joined by Martin Talvari. Martin is the innovative thinker behind some of the most successful world changing events; and is the founder of Brisbane's own MYRIAD. Martin was recommended to me by previous guest Taryn Williams and after some research I asked him to come on the show for many reasons. He has traveled, he as born in a Country that no longer exists as it was and he has a views the world from a lens not many others have a chance to see through. Martin's specific essay wuestion was: "From civil engineering to hosting the most innovative technology and investment events on the globe; how did a thirty-something Estonian use his enthusiasm, drive and curiosity to turn once imagined visions into the most extraordinary of realities?" We discussed when and where he was taught to think, why he chose Brisbane, Australia as the host destination for Myriad and some of his more developed thoughts on food, the purpose of connection and the impact of events.

THE PURSUIT OF WORLD DISRUPTION This week I have on the show the smart, stunning and all round epic human - Taryn Williams. Taryn is the definition of a game changer in the world of entrepreneurs and business. She speaks on the subjects with an ease of flow and wisdom of someone well beyond her years. Taryn started her first company, WINK Models, barely out of her teens and has now grown to become a powerhouse in the Australian Start Up Space. Not satisfied being stagnant, Taryn is 18 months into her second ALL IN venture, the industry disrupting two sided market place - THE RIGHT. FIT. Miss Williams provides listeners with a refreshingly ruthless aspect to what it takes to be an entrepreneur. We cover subjects from mentors, to hiring and firing, as well as plenty of insight into the inner thoughts and conversations Taryn has with herself that lead her to living this life of adrenaline seeking start-ups. Taryn's specific essay question was: "Entrepreneurship is tough. It takes a particular kind of human to even think of beginning their own company, and it takes a special tolerance for torture to want to start that business in the industry of Model and Talent management. You didn’t only do it once, but twice, starting The Right. Fit almost a decade after, and in what has been described as competition to, your first company WINK Models. As a serial entrepreneur, how do you decide the time is right to keep going, pivot, quit or start-afresh?" I left this conversation with a renewed energy to get out there and get it done. No doubt you will get plenty out of this podcast too. www: theright.fit | winkmodels.com.au | tarynwilliams.com.au IG: @tarynwilliams | @theright.fit | @winkmodels Li: Taryn Williams   www: wordswithoz.com IG: @wordswithoz   Enjoy the Show.   Show Notes 00.00 : 01.17 - Intro & Adverts 01.18 : 02.30 - WWO Intro 02.31 : 05.26 - Banter & Intros 05.27 : 08.55 - Breaking New Ground - Disrupting an Industry 08.56 : 10.06 - Taryn's Background 10.07 : 13.14 - Sourcing Help 13.15 : 17.00 - My First Born - Work vs. Family 17.01 : 19.46 - Realising 'I think different' 19.47 : 22.12 - Why do people back you? 22.13 : 24.50 - What drives Taryn? 24.51 : 26.38 - Will Taryn ever be 'done'? 26.39 : 28.31 - Daily Routines 28.32 : 32.06 - Essay Question 32.07 : 35.01 - finding balance... 35.02 : 35.32 - School Morning Mantra 35.31 : 37.57 - Balancing Social Media and Self Worth 37.58 : 40.40 - Inspiration 40.41 : 43.06 - Grit 43.07 : 45.56 - The Book 45.57 : 47.28 - Oz' Take Aways 47.29 : 47.54 - Taryn's Ambition 47.55 : 49.01 - Wrap Up & Thank you

Taryn Williams has never known normal. The entrepreneurial journey for the founder of WINK Models and The Right.Fit began with an unconventional childhood. Born in South Australia's Barossa Valley, Taryn moved and travelled frequently with parents who were progressive, highly supportive but provided few boundaries. It meant that Taryn developed into a highly responsible teenager, which put her in good stead as a 15 year old model trying to make her way in the fashion industry. Taryn says it is an industry that is far from glamourous. The demands can be brutal, and seeing how poorly that talent and clients were treated led her to start her own agency, WINK, at just 18. WINK has helped redefine the culture of the industry, prioritising health and wellness for models and providing a top quality experience for clients. Not content with just one fashion business, Taryn started TheRight.Fit, a talent marketplace for the fashion industry that opens up easy access to models, photographers, influencers, makeup artists, stylists and more. In less than a year, growth has been exponential. 2500 talent has already signed up, 850 clients have followed, there's a new office in New York and Bangkok is opening soon. Now running two companies in Sydney amongst entrepreneurs with "Peter Pan Syndrome" (no one wants to grow up), Taryn talks about swimming in the the deep end. In our interview, we also cover: - Challenges in entrepreneurship - The rise of influencer marketing - Preparing for growth in Asia - Breaking barriers for women in tech - Fashion tips - Much more!

"Place your health first. All other things can't happen if you're not in a strong place mentally and physically.” 
 - Taryn Williams, The Moment HQ Podcast Taryn Williams runs Wink Models and has done so successfully for the past 9 years (and she's only 30). She's also just launched her new disruptive tech venture theright.fit. It's quite common at the moment to hear about entrepreneurs coming out of the woodwork and rustling up the feathers within age-old industries, but how often do you find an entrepreneur that's disturbing the peace within not only their own industry, but also their own business?! Theright.fit, is making the traditional role of an agent or agency almost redundant - and Taryn runs her own agency. Catch 22, right? But Taryn sees it as exciting and looks at the glass half full over half empty. 

She sees this new platform for photographers, brands, influencers, models and other creatives as an opportunity for people to take their personal brand and career into their own hands. And because of this, more people in the creative industries are given the opportunity to pursue their craft and express themselves. Now Taryn's success has not come without a paying a few prices along the way. She's faced some serious health challenges, which forced her to stop and reflect on what her priorities in life were. Her honest insights around building her business and what she's learnt about burning the candle at both ends may just be the reminder you need to slow down. While she may be a successful and savvy businesswoman, she's managed to maintain a soft and humble nature about her business success, while also staying true to her vision and the change she wants to bring to the world. We chat about THE NON-NEGOTIABLES & WHAT'S REALLY IMPORTANT IN BUSINESS AND LIFE. Learn about: Owning your decision to pursue your dreams Why health is no.1 
 The non-negotiables How to decipher what your priorities are Making conscious decisions around work and personal life 
 Taryn's advice to start ups, entrepreneurs for managing business
