Building a creative career is incredibly difficult.
Over the past decade, I’ve worked tirelessly to establish myself, navigating the highs and lows of making money online. My journey has included running an agency, working with over 200 clients, and experimenting with every major social media platform out there—from YouTube, TikTok, and Instagram to X (formerly Twitter) and LinkedIn.
I want to be real with you about this journey.
These last 10 years have been filled with struggles and hardships. Trying to build an audience online is no easy task. It requires resources like cameras, gear, tools, and apps, all of which can be overwhelming and costly. Success doesn't come overnight, and it’s crucial to recognize and embrace the challenges that come with this path.
Despite the myriad of obstacles, I have no doubt in my mind that persistence pays off. I firmly believe that if you keep going—keep pushing, keep creating, keep experimenting—it will eventually work out. I’m currently experiencing the struggle and hardship firsthand as I try to figure these things out.
