Holy Shit, I Wrote a Book

I am rarely the smartest or most talented person in the room. Nor do I generally have the most creative or analytical mind amongst my clients and teammates. I don’t always say the right thing, use the right tone or think before acting. I lead by my gut and have pissed off more people than I can count. But I have heart. I care. I will outwork you and I try not to repeat mistakes. I bleed passion for what I do, who I represent, and who I stand next to.

What would you do with your life if you knew it was half over?
‍
It was the question that faced Jennie Smythe during a pivotal point in her early adult life. Becoming Girlilla answers that question and more, as this digital marketing trailblazer candidly shares her path to success, full of sometimes surprising and oftentimes laugh-out-loud moments.

Jennie’s career in music started with a job interview set up by a stripper in Los Angeles. Her experiences at Elektra, Disney’s Hollywood Records, YAHOO! Music and beyond evolved into a high-powered role as CEO of her own Nashville-based firm, Girlilla Marketing. Along the way, she navigated an industry that often underestimated her, fought through personal and professional hurdles, and rose to the top of her field.

Becoming Girlilla isn’t just about one woman’s resilience—it’s a call to embrace change, unleash potential, and make a positive impact in your world.
