All smiles and a heart full of color today, because I’m celebrating that The Mindful Mermaid Blog has finally made it to over 10,000 page views a month! I’m so grateful to not only see hard work breed success, but also for each and every one of you that are helping me grow this passion project into a platform. 💙💙💙
As some of you may recall, I started this blog without a real end goal, other than wanting to document my post-grad journey abroad and share my tips and tricks for conscious travel and lifestyle. But it wasn’t until this year that I decided that my end goal was to grow this blog into a business.
But don’t let those dreamy Instagram photos fool you. There’s been many 12 hour days managing blogging AND freelance work. Some days (okay weeks) where I would wear the same thing every day from the comfort of my makeshift home. And yeah, sometimes I really want to just give up and return to a comfortable 9-5.
Who knew that being your own writer, web developer, photographer, content creator, and social media manager would be so much work??😅😫😅😫
But just the moments I want to give up, I get a heart-felt e-mail or comment from one of you, reminding me why I started The Mindful Mermaid in the first place!
Thank you all for the supporting me to stick with this, as now many doors are beginning to open up that I never really knew existed.
This is the start to more milestones along the way. Many more exciting projects, stories, tips and tricks to come, so stay tuned on mindfulmermaid.com!
