Naturalista @simonemissick is everything! Feeling empowered to rock her natural hair gave her the confidence to be a #flawless#MistyKnight https://t.co/17IcGHgrCZ
@mabintou Nike just isn’t dominating the market anymore. Many of their signature shoe lines are terribly uncomfortable. I don’t even think Nike makes THE BEST running shoe. I’d assume their main revenue driver would the stronghold they maintain across professional athletics.
@tferriss Hi! I read and enjoy your newsletter weekly. I have a newsletter of my own. Any advice on how to pitch for brand partnerships, sponsorships or affiliate links that my readers can benefit from. I’m early stage and only have 90 subscribers but the list is growing fast!
To think, that little urge bubbling inside of you that even you don’t fully understand, can one day turn into something that other ppl can align themselves with, be impacted by, and participate in. THAT’S manifestation ya’ll.
Journaling helped me to visualize those values and goals, and turn them into plans. It also served as an encyclopedia of my own ideas that could reference anytime I veered off course… which happens
This is your sign to pursue the thing you want but don’t think you’ll get. I just got a free PREMIUM pass to 3-day conference in Miami Beach, FL with a crazy lineup of keynote speakers that I did not think I would get. I applied anyway. Now me and my team going to MIAMI!!!!!
The people who want to love you, will. The people who want to hate you will do that too. And the beautiful thing is that no matter what they do, you remain as you are. Unfazed.
Now, pivoting from micro influencer to entrepreneur is such a full circle moment because similar rules apply:
1) Share your story and you’ll connect with the right ppl.
2) Remain authentic; don’t try to be someone else.
3) Aim to help. The engagement and money will follow.
But at some point I KNEW I wanted to pivot because I didn’t see a future in reviewing different hair products each week on YouTube for pennies. Having the “job” of Influencer was nowhere near as acknowledged or as lucrative (in 2016) as it is today.
Leaning into the natural hair space presented many great opportunities, including my viral TED Talk, and some really great women who have now become close friends
