S2: Glamour Mag editor Samantha Barry on imposter syndrome, working with Anna Wintour & New York life.
The Number with Darren KennedyShow Notes
My guest today is Samantha Barry, the editor-in-chief of Glamour, one of the biggest female- focused media titles in the US.
Born and raised in Cork, Ireland, Samantha became the first editor-in-chief of a Conde Nast publication to have never previously worked in print media when she was appointed editor-in-chief by Anna Wintour. Under her leadership, Glamour has reached record breaking monthly audiences and grown their video content hugely with Barry recently interviewing the US First Lady, Dr Jill Biden. Prior to joining Glamour Barry served as executive producer for social and emerging media at CNN Worldwide. Under her leadership at CNN, the network became the most followed news organization in the world.
In this conversation we talked about her incredible career, imposter syndrome, being an immigrant & putting down roots in New York and getting her start on late night news reading shifts in RTE. Samantha is a leading light in global media and I couldn't be more thrilled that she's chatted to me on The Number.
Enjoy!
Darren.

Tyler Henry, star of the Netflix series Life after Death with Tyler Henry, is known as America’s most watched medium. He first came to public attention on the E! Entertainment’s hit show Hollywood Medium with Tyler Henry but his journey with clairvoyance began when he was just 10 years old. It was then that he started to receive ‘intuitive mental images’ and foretold his grandmother’s death at the time. Word of Tyler’s gift began to spread locally, and he even began sometimes ‘reading’ his own classmates in his small California hometown. In this chat with Darren, Tyler talks about the importance of striking whilst the iron is hot, resilience, what it was like for him coming out and of course, what lies beyond the physical world. It was a fascinating conversation and I hope you enjoy it. Love, Darren. Follow Darren for all the latest podcast news and updates.
