Honestly, Iāve been so meh! š and Iām over it!
My lengthy buying career actually started out in PR and marketing!
Working with editors and teams from Vogue, Elle, Marie Claire back in the late 90s. Big names, celebs, TV shows ā we did it all sweetie, darling!
But that damn conditioning told me that a buyer role was āworthier because it was āactualā work.
Seriously?! š¤¦āāļø Looking back, I should have taken my dear art teachers advice and followed my joy!
Staying in that PR world I likely wouldāve earned the same & had way more fun š
I sadly mistook academic drive for happiness.
So I moved to buying. Poached after they spent that year watching me work! I was beside myself⦠Iād made it into the club.
Little did I know, it was the start of what almost fu***ng killed me! š
Years of buying for brands, for things I didnāt agree with.
For so-called fashion.
Trying to nail their branding, messaging, products ā all to make them as much money as possible.
I diluted myself. š§ Lost that passion for fashion, that love for Vogue.
The resultā¦my messaging here has been shocking! š³
Iāve been focused on everything except what truly matters: YOU!
I canāt reach you if Iām vague! š£ļø
Marketing is about speaking a language only specific people understand.
Try and connect with everyone, reach no one.
And frankly, I donāt even know what Iāve been doing. š¤·āāļø I guess going on the journey to find the old meā¦
Iām passionate (of course I am, Iām a Scorpio sun and rising) - which means Iām incredibly vocal about certain subjects, and I havenāt been showing that side of me at all š±
This is what this space is all about⦠real, raw and wholly authentic.
Itās what gives each of us the opportunity to shine and take our own piece of the pie - there IS room for us all.
Itās what I teach in my mentorship programme for aspiring online entrepreneurs š¤
So had better start practising what I preach and spent years learning, eh?!? š
Success here is created by you being you and following what lights you up šŖš¼
Letās get this show on the road!
No boss. No burnout. No more bu****it.
Love Kx
