This honestly was always my dream job. I was an awkward 12-year-old when I first started my YouTube channel, and of course, it’s grown and changed a lot over the years, but one thing never changed: I was determined to do whatever it takes to make this work for me. Now, I know a lot of y’all are working towards being a full-time creator as well - but at the moment, you’re most likely a full-time something else. And unfortunately, it’s not viable for most people to up and leave their job to focus on making content full-time. And look, I would not advise that, actually. It’s probably not going to be the most responsible move. So instead, you need to find ways to balance being a full-time whatever AND creating content, and creating enough content, consistently enough, that you grow an audience that can support you as a full-time creator. I’ll be honest; I’ve never actually worked a “corporate job,” as an adult - but I do know what it’s like to balance content creation with other work. I started really focusing on creating content when I was a full-time student - I was doing a more-than-full course load, working a part-time job, doing extracurriculars, and making multiple YouTube videos per week. (They weren’t necessarily good videos, but hey - I was trying) When coming out of university, I worked as a freelancer doing videography for weddings and even real estate. No matter what I was doing, in my spare time, I was working on building my own content creation business. Eventually, I grew my freelance work into an agency, Creatorly Media - with a team that works with our clients. So even now - I’m a small business owner, and a content creator - and now, I’ve started another brand on the side (my van life vlog channel) in addition to my YouTube channel, podcast, and Instagram. All of this is to say - while I’ve technically never balanced an “adult full-time job” with being a content creator - I’ve certainly had times in my life where I have a lot of different things going on, and I’ve learned ways to prioritize content creation in the midst of all that. Over the years, while working on this, I developed a few strategies that I think will help you grow as a content creator while balancing a full-time job. So let’s get into it!

I really started experimenting with digital products in 2022 - before that, I really hadn’t ventured into the space. However, my digital product strategy wasn’t very - well, strategic. I sort of was just making products here and there and seeing what stuck. But over the last year, throughout 2023, I learned a lot about how if you just simplify your offering and make sure that it will be actually useful to your community, you will see a change in sales. Today I am excited to share how I went from $0 in digital product income in 2021, to $80,000+ in the last two years in digital product sales, and how you can implement the same strategies to make digital products a part of your income streams as a creator.

That's pretty much what happened to my Instagram in 2023. I thought to myself, "If I can hit 50K followers by the end of the year, that would be great." Just for context, I started with around 35K followers at the beginning of 2023. But once I stopped putting pressure on growing, that's when I saw the most growth. It all started with trying something a little different, and honestly, this one thing shifted my entire Instagram strategy. So, today, I want to walk you through this strategy and how it helped me reach 100K followers before the end of the year.

Despite the various motivations behind why we want to become creators, I would say most of us agree that we also need to bring in an income. When we see all of these other creators out there bringing in six figures of revenue each year, it's hard not to want the same.

However, I hit a certain age when I knew exactly what I wanted to be when I grew up: a content creator. I didn’t know what that would look like for me, and I have changed directions with my content a lot over the 12+ years I have been creating, but one thing never changed: my desire to be a content creator. There are so many content creators out there talking about how to become one and providing a wealth of information on how to grow. It's awesome; I am one of those people, and I wish I would’ve had access to these types of creators when I was first starting out. But I didn’t, and I figured it out the hard way. The problem with having so many different pieces of advice out there is that you may find yourself doing things because somebody told you to, not because it feels right or is even working for you. So, in today’s episode, I want to chat about some mindset shifts that can truly turn your content creation journey into your own.
