HELLO! Lovely to see you here, fellow misfit. I’d like to take a moment to walk you through my journey from blogger to photographer to marketing consultant and now to a combination of all three. Some might call it a hat trick, I call it multi-passionate. I have been creating […]

What is This “Misfit Creatives” Thing?
If you read my post from last week, you know that I am starting to create a bunch of content under this “Misfit Creatives” term. Why? And what does it even mean?! A few of my friends had the same question, so sit tight. I’ll explain. The “why” tree has […]
If You’re Sick of Instagram, Read This
As we step into 2022 (which is absolutely BANANA LAND), I had to drop in and share my feelings on social media. I do this almost every year and one thing remains the same: it’s always changing. See what I did there?? Word play is fun. If you’re a small […]

This is one of those moments that feels very self-indulgent and dramatic, but then I stop and think: aren’t all bloggers a little self-indulgent and dramatic? I have been toying with the idea of changing my handle to just my name for literally over a year now, and there’s a […]
Coffee: The Panic Attack Whisperer
I know this is very upsetting, but hear me out. Because I love coffee, so if I’m saying this, you know there’s a reason. Last week, I attended a friend’s wedding in Jersey with friends I grew up with (some of whom I hadn’t seen since pre-pandemic) and had a […]
Clubhouse and Social Media Burnout
If you’re not familiar with Clubhouse, I suggest giving it a Google. It’s supposed to be the next big thing, and I’ve been on it since November. That’s not a flex, I just happen to have a friend who has been on it for a while and she invited me […]

When you’re going through a specific life event or trauma where you experience loss in some form, sometimes you’re angry and sometimes you’re sad. I know what you’re thinking: thanks for the groundbreaking info. But give […]
