I’m really wanting to use this as an opportunity to start from scratch and re invent my social media persona or personality. I’ve been interested in content creating for a while but I don’t know what angle to go. No lie, I’m very intimidated by the internet… everyone gets offended by every little thing. I don’t want to exploit my children or my marriage. I don’t like the idea of constantly recording something. I enjoy living in the moment too much for that. I kinda wanna start leaning my content towards my journey as a novice, self taught nail tech but I’m afraid that I may not commit to this journey. I’m unsure but the only way to get something accomplished is to TRY. I’m gonna be big on breaking barriers and stepping outside my comfort zone šŸ¤žšŸ½ #newtolemon8šŸ’– #rant #vent #contentcreator #contentideas

... Read moreStarting fresh on social media can be both exhilarating and intimidating. As I embark on my adventurous path as a novice nail tech, I will share challenges and insights on how to maintain authenticity while exploring new content ideas. In today’s digital world, where many feel overwhelmed by societal pressures and expectations, embracing your unique journey is essential. It’s important to curate a space that reflects your true self. Here are some tips: 1. **Find Your Niche**: Explore various angles to discover what resonates with you. For instance, document your learning process as a nail technician, sharing failures and triumphs alike. This can inspire others in the same boat. 2. **Engage Authentically**: Build a community by sharing your thoughts and experiences honestly. Emphasize interaction rather than simply broadcasting content. This fosters connection and makes your platform feel welcoming. 3. **Balance Privacy and Sharing**: While creating content, be mindful of what personal aspects you wish to share. The internet is vast, yet creating boundaries can help maintain a healthy relationship with your online persona. 4. **Embrace Growth**: Understand that your content may evolve, and that’s okay. Allow your interests to shift as you grow, giving yourself permission to change directions if needed. This flexibility is key to long-term engagement. 5. **Overcome Fear of Judgment**: It’s natural to fear negativity online. However, focusing on your passion can help minimize the impact of any external opinions. Ultimately, the journey of becoming a content creator is about self-discovery and authenticity. Embrace each step, allowing your unique voice to shine through, and remember that trying is the first step to achieving greatness.

Don’t do this if you’re wanting to grow ur glutes
āŒ Do not push back when doing a Bulgarian split squat like the first clip because you are actually working more on your quads. ✨ In the second clip, I’m hinging at my hips forward and I’m moving straight down. That is going to set my glutes on fire and make them grow! šŸ‘ For a glute targeted

A hand holds a purple reading journal with '2024 reading log' on the cover, decorated with aesthetic stickers. The image introduces the start of a new reading journal.
An open reading journal displays a decorated title page with various stickers, illustrations, and the handwritten text 'astarael's reading journal 2024-'.
A reading journal spread shows a star-based rating system on the left page and a 'BOOKS READ' tracker with outlined book spines on the right, designed for motivation.
I've been wanting to do this for so long~ šŸ“–
one of my main goals for this year was to read more books, but a couple months went by and I didn't read at all! I knew I needed to get out of this slump... so I decided to take advantage of my weird obsession with journaling and documenting things and I started my very own reading journal!
