How long have you been blogging/vlogging/creating content?
I started my very first blog back in 2000. It was all HTML then and it was called an online diary! I started my vlogging channel in 2016.
Why did you decide to start your blog/vlog?
I like having a creative outlet. Be that with pictures, text or video. It's also really, really fun to do what I love!
Do you see this becoming a career or part of your career?
I absolutely want social media to be my full-time job eventually. Who wouldn't want to earn enough to call your dream your job?
What do you hope to achieve for your content in 2018 and what’s your big-picture goal?
Having my 4 children I have always been pregnant or been attached to a baby and haven't had the time or energy to work on my content as much as I would have liked. This year is the year that changes! I really want to push myself and pursue my dream.
What is your favourite social media channel & why?
Youtube is where most of my content is being created so I would say Youtube. But I also LOVE Instagram and can't go an hour without checking it.
What is your favourite tool or app that helps in your content creation?
Youtube Creator Studio
Who is your blogging/vlogging/content inspiration and why?
There are so many beautiful people on social media who I follow and admire every day. I currently never miss a vlog by Hayley Paige - she's an American mum vlogger who's absolutely smashing her content and growth by being truly authentic!
What do you like to do on weekends? Where can we find you hanging out?
I had my 4th baby 7 months ago so I currently spend 24/7 with her and the rest of the family... Mostly playing on the PS4.
If you could go anywhere in the world or experience any one thing, what would it be?
I would absolutely love going anywhere. After spending the first 18 years of my life in Sweden I then moved to England, where I've been since. I think my ultimate travel destination would be the Maldives. What a dream that would be!
What're your tips for staying motivated and/or organised in your work?
Just keep going. Even if you lack the motivation/inspiration or feel like everyone are against you, it will always turn. Know that you can do ANYTHING, and you can!
What is the one piece of advice you’d give other content creators & aspiring bloggers/vloggers?
Don't give up. If you give up, you'll never be successful. If you do your best you'll bloom and you'll find your way.
Fun/random fact about you (go on, surprise us!):
I'm Swedish born
I'm a certified Life Coach
I've never missed a The Sims game since it was released in 2000
I'm a massive gaming geek and would happily be up all night gaming
