There’s this whole narrative about moving in silence—like success only counts if nobody sees you coming. But let’s be real friend, in today’s world, you gotta make a little noise to catch traction. The right kind of noise.
Lately, I’ve been posting IG stories just to post. No grand strategy, no perfect content calendar, no overthinking. Just me, living my little life. And ironically, that’s what’s been drawing the most engagement. Instagram is literally trying to monetize my content and throwing brand collaborations my way, all because I’m doing what I love—talking about how much I don’t like creating content. The algorithm is eating up my authenticity, and honestly, I get it.
The goal has always been consistency, but I’m not planning my life around it anymore. I’ve stopped worrying about “sticking to a niche” or keeping up with trends that don’t even feel like me. I’m just here, existing out loud. Moving quietly, but not in silence.
Because silence doesn’t get you seen. Being you does. And let’s be real—if there’s a bag attached, I can get a little creative. Those dollars will definitely get my creative juices flowing again.
