You're getting me HYPED UP from the beginning. No more fence sitting for me. You're out here preaching friend! Has so many gems!  I love the intro, its clear and tells us what to expect to learn. Then began to encourage and I felt ready to press send on a email in my drafts to a brand.

Reading through "Level Up Your Influence" has helped give me the confidence to approach brands I love, use, and share about already about the possibility of working together. Heather gives great tips on how to prepare yourself, your blog, and your social media for partnerships. I love that she didn’t leave out the mental game when it came to transitioning to working with brands. If you are considering this transition, the guide as tons of tips to give you a great start.

When I first started blogging and posting on social media, I didn't even know it was possible to make money from it. Slowly I learned about sponsored posts and being an affiliate as well as UGC, and then I was pitched by my very first brand. I was terrified but also excited someone wanted to pay me! For awhile, I would get pitched by brands, but then I wanted more. I began going out on my own and doing the pitching. I also started getting bold and negotiating my contracts to get the money I knew I deserved. I learned how to say no, here are my rates, and I learned when and what to say in a pitch. Now I want to help YOU do the same thing and earn what you deserve. I can't wait to see your successes by using my guide!

Tiny home + lake views + s’mores = the perfect T Tiny home + lake views + s’mores = the perfect Tennessee weekend 🌲🔥🏡
We spent a few days at Natchez Trace (part of @thousandtrails), and it was exactly what we needed—peaceful, fun, and full of charm. #100daysofcamping 

We stayed in the cutest little tiny house (shoutout to “Sadie” from @petite.retreats!), and filled our time with:
✨ Lake strolls
⛳️ Mini golf showdowns
🏀 Basketball games
🔥 Campfire s’mores
🦆 duck feeding
…and plenty of unplugged moments together 💛

This spot truly has it all—whether you’re glamping, RVing, or just looking for a getaway that blends nature and comfort.

😎 90’s summer loading….. If you grew up in 😎 90’s summer loading…..

If you grew up in the 90’s like me, you know we had THE BEST summers. They were simple, but magical. Yes sometimes we got bored and fought with our friends, but the freedom and fun was so memorable. 

In today’s world of screen time and filling every second of the day with “fun” for our kids so they never have to be bored, it makes me sad that they won’t experience what we did. So I am trying to recreate a 90’s summer the best way I can.

Will we still travel? Of course, it’s my job. But when we are home, I’m not filling every second with fun. I’m making her figure it out. Read a book. Do some chores. Then just…go. Play. Be a ten year old while I work. Then in the evenings we can play some more, together, while I tell stories of all the crazy and fun things I did as a kid during those special 90’s summers. ☀️ 🩷
