Directing & Managing Egos

We are back!!!!  Welcome to Episode 5 of My TV Journey With Lola! In this episode, I’m joined by the incredible Karim Abouzeid — a visionary filmmaker who’s been directing and producing for over 26 years across the Middle East. From 11:11 (2022), which spent 32 days as the number one film on Netflix, to his latest project Dracu Ra (2024), Karim’s work continues to push creative boundaries across Egypt, the UAE, and Saudi Arabia. We talk all about bold storytelling, cinematic risk-taking, and the art of managing talent (and egos!) which, as Karim says, can sometimes feel like being a professional mum or dad. Tune in for a fun, honest, and insightful conversation with one of the region’s most dynamic filmmakers.

This week, we’re in London with the digital powerhouse herself — Esther!  With nearly a decade of experience in content strategy and influencer management, Esther has worked with some of the biggest brands in the game: Twitter, Meta, McCain, Booking.com, the Olympics, and Virgin Atlantic (just to name a few). From managing six-figure influencer budgets to hiring ex–Love Islanders, Esther pulls back the curtain on what really goes down in influencer managing. Ever wondered how much the average influencer makes? Listen to find out!  We also get into: * The pay gap between US vs. UK influencers * Brand demands that will make your jaw drop * Why diversity and authenticity matter more than ever If the internet had a backstage pass, Esther would be running the show.
