Gersh Adds Mental Health Advocate and Podcaster Victoria Garrick Browne to Client Roster
Talent agency Gersh has taken on Victoria Garrick Browne, a former college athlete turned mental health advocate and podcaster. Browne, who has amassed over 2 million followers across platforms, is known for her TEDx Talk and non-profit The Hidden Opponent. She currently co-hosts the Inner Child podcast with Aubrey Wood.
Garrick Browne’s rise began with a 2017 TEDx talk that resonated widely, leading to a nonprofit dedicated to student-athlete mental health. Her platform has since grown to over 2 million followers, with appearances on major daytime shows. Her newest project, the Inner Child podcast, co-hosted with Aubrey Wood, blends candid conversation with a therapeutic tone. She remains represented by attorney Duncan Hedges alongside her new agency deal.
The signing places Gersh at the intersection of sports, mental health advocacy, and digital media. Browne’s background as a former Division I volleyball player gives her credibility in both athletic and wellness spaces, while her podcast expands her reach into long-form audio. Her existing nonprofit work and media visibility suggest she can leverage this representation for broader speaking, brand, and production opportunities.
This signing could signal growing mainstream acceptance of mental health advocacy within celebrity representation, particularly for figures who blend personal experience with digital influence. Browne’s audience—likely young athletes and wellness-focused followers—may see increased visibility for conversations about anxiety and body image. Her platform could also encourage other agencies to prioritize creators with purpose-driven content, potentially shifting how talent is evaluated beyond traditional entertainment metrics. However, the actual impact depends on the projects Gersh secures for her.
