Embracing Your Inner Creator
Nov 08, 2024Spoiler Alert: You Don’t Need to Be an Influencer to Make an Impact
In our crazy digital world, the title of "influencer" is often a badge of honor and worth... but what if I told you that being a creator holds its own unique power? That's right, you don't need millions (or even thousands) of followers or the perfect Instagram feed to make a significant impact in the beauty industry—or any field, for that matter.
The True Essence of Being a Creator is about expression, innovation, and connection. It's about sharing your knowledge, showcasing your skills, and touching lives, one piece of content at a time.
Every video you edit, every tutorial you film, and every piece of advice you share contributes to a larger community. It's not about the glamour of the influencer lifestyle but about the genuine value you bring to your audience, however niche it may be. (Shoutout to all my consultation peeps).
So many of us, especially when starting out, fall victim to the Big Bad Wolf that is imposter syndrome. This psychological phenomenon, where we doubt our accomplishments and fear being exposed as a "fraud," can be paralyzing. Especially among those of us who feel they aren’t "influencer" enough to warrant success or recognition. I know I've experienced this a few times in my career (both behind the chair and the mic).
But here’s the truth: your value as a creator isn’t defined by your follower count but by the authenticity and quality of your content. Think about the creators you follow and why they resonate with you. I would almost gaurantee it's not because they're perfect... but because they're relatable.
And each piece of content you create is a testament to your dedication and a step towards overcoming those doubts.
Confidence doesn’t come overnight. It builds as you share your work, receive feedback, and see the tangible effects of your contributions. Remember, every expert was once a beginner, and every influencer started with a single follower. The key is to start and to keep going, consistently.
