On this week's episode of the Blogged Podcast, we sit down with Stephanie Lewis to talk about her journey in founding HerCampus and the InfluenceHer collective. She shares insight into her journey as a young entrepreneur, some tips she's learned along the way and some ways young influencers can set themselves up for a successful career. We talk about the importance of getting plugged into a community, why you should have a long-term focus and what that means in the influencer space.

Stephanie has grown Her Campus to over 90 million monthly multi-platform content views, with chapters at 300+ colleges worldwide.  Stephanie also spearheads Her Campus's additional user-facing initiatives, including 22 Under 22, the InfluenceHer Collective and High School Ambassador Program, and oversaw Her Campus's first book, The Her Campus Guide to College Life which was a back-to-school bestseller at Barnes & Noble. She has been named to Inc.’s 30 Under 30, Businessweek’s 25 Under 25, EY Entrepreneurial Winning Women, and Glamour’s 20 Amazing Young Women.  Stephanie is a 2010 graduate of Harvard University, where she majored in psychology, minored in economics, and was a member of Delta Gamma.  Some of her favorite things include doing barre classes, running, bargain shopping, hanging ut with her rescue puppy Yeti, and vacationing in Maine with her husband, Jason.

The InfluenceHer Collective is a curated network of blogs and vlogs written by young women on fashion, beauty, cooking, fitness, design, lifestyle, and more.  The Collective provides a community for influencers to share ideas and inspiration with one another and receive editorial and sponsorship opportunities from Her Campus and their partners.  It also provides brands with the chance to reach 2,600+ digital, millennial influencers and their audiences through sponsored blog content, social media campaigns, and more.
