Where do you pull inspiration? I’ve been asked Where do you pull inspiration?

I’ve been asked this question a lot recently and I actually made it a topic in my workshop.

Inspiration can come from anywhere.

For me, I love to see what’s going on in other niches outside of my own, such as photography or even menswear.

We’re so consumed by our own feeds or what the algorithm gives us that it’s hard to step outside of our norm with creative enlightenment. 

So if you’re in a pickle and need a change of scenery, take a look at other categories. Everyone has a unique approach or messaging.

Then ask yourself, “how can I make this my own?”

⁣How do you view success?⠀ ⠀ To me, it’s s ⁣How do you view success?⠀
⠀
To me, it’s stepping out of my comfort zone and building a life that I once thought was unattainable.⠀
⠀
My wife sent me a podcast this week with @jasminestar and @jennakutcher (two insanely talented entrepreneurs I look up to). The topic was about pivoting. ⠀
⠀
@jennakutcher said something that really stuck with me - it’s not that you need to know where you’re going but what you’re moving away from. ⠀
⠀
Whether you’re just starting out on your side hustle journey, in the process of building it, or at the point of going full time, there will always be moments of pivoting.⠀
⠀
I’ve tried out so many unique side hustles over the last 6 years lol from different forms of YouTube channels to a podcast! Every time something didn’t feel right, I’d let it go and move on to the next. ⠀
⠀
Overnight success is a made up term. Nothing happens overnight or in a month. It takes commitment and trust in yourself. ⠀
⠀
I always say “keep going” to my clients. It took me 6 years to get here (with multiple high and lows in the process).⠀
⠀
So trust the process and enjoy the journey… it’s worth it.⠀

100K followers?! Is this real life? A year ago I 100K followers?! Is this real life?

A year ago I was at 16K. 

I launched a new strategy at the beginning of July (I was at 60K) and I said to myself I will get to 70K in 4 weeks - then I ended up at 100K! 

So this was not pure luck, it was strategy. 

Don’t worry (you know I don’t gatekeep!) I will share this strategy soon!

To all my newcomers, I’m so happy you’re here! Here are a few things about me!

1. I’m a social media strategist and thought leader with over 10+ years experience in luxury fashion, beauty, and social media marketing. 

2. Im a member of the LGBTQ+ community and have the most amazing and supportive wife @vicmatthews06 

3. Saved up enough money and left my mentally draining fashion corporate job last April to pursue a dream of becoming my own boss

4. Launched my social media consulting business in June 2021. Since then, I have scaled to workshops and soon to be courses and memberships later this year!

5. I’m here to help small business owners, entrepreneurs, content creators grow their digital presence on social media and create the life they’ve always wanted

6. I live outside of NYC in NJ with my wife and 3 year old pup Nike. we’re finally re-planning our wedding (that was canceled during the pandemic) for summer 2023!

I also offer 1-on-1 services as well and you can find out more details through the link in my bio!

I’m so happy you found my corner of the internet! Get ready to feel inspired and motivated to create!

Love creating unique content with my wife 💕 @v Love creating unique content with my wife 💕

@vic.m.photos dusted off her old Polaroid from 2000 and we took it for a spin around NYC’s West Village!

I love her eye for small details. So many things I miss, she stops and takes a photo of it.

Also I’m so excited that I finally achieved the pole transition! I’ve been wanting to do this for YEARS lol

A lot of folks don’t mention this, but you need an extra hand creating this type of content. 

Full transparency, I had my photographer watch my tripod and made sure it was stable throughout the filming and clothes change. 

So if you want to create this, ask a friend for help! 

Thanks @megmccstudio for the assist!
