Jacob Stanley, the nomad who went from beauty educator to media personality

Podcast aficionados will know Jacob Stanley as the co-host of Just The Gist with Rosie Waterland. But before his media life, he was the Head of Learning and Development at the beauty juggernaut Mecca, traveling the world for makeup.

For the past year and a half, he’s been podcasting on the road as he chasing his travel bug nomadically around Australia. He talks to Jamila Rizvi from the canopies of a Far North Queensland rainforest about his adaptable travel, the beauty industry, losing loved ones and parenthood.
