    Touching Grass with Eugene Healey
    Feb 18 2026

    Welcome to Touch Grass, a mini series where we explore the implications of being chronically online with the creatives who can’t escape it.




    In this episode, host Lauren Meisner interviews Eugene Healey, a global brand strategist, key-note speaker, and online creator who grew his following from 0 to 400K in under a year. Eugene and Lauren chat about his career journey from academia to marketing, the power of creating opinion-based content online, dealing with criticism, and (of course) Lauren's favourite topic, Vanderpump Rules.
