On My Mind

As we approach the new year, I can’t help but feel the excitement of a fresh start—a blank slate filled with possibilities, opportunities, and challenges waiting to be conquered. For 2025, I’ve set my sights high, but I’m ready to embrace the journey with consistency, creativity, and purpose.

This year, I’m diving headfirst into the world of User-Generated Content (UGC). I’ve always loved creating and sharing content that feels authentic and relatable, and UGC offers the perfect platform to channel my creativity while collaborating with amazing brands. It’s more than just creating pretty visuals or catchy captions; it’s about helping brands tell their stories in ways that resonate with their audience. I’m thrilled to explore this growing space, and my ultimate goal is to build a sustainable side hustle (or maybe even full time job!) that reflects my passion and skills.

But UGC isn’t just about making content—it’s about building something bigger. I want to establish a strong personal brand across social media, showing up consistently and authentically. My focus is on sharing valuable insights, connecting with like-minded creators, and inspiring others to pursue their goals. Whether it’s through TikTok, Instagram, or here on my blog, I’m committed to showing up every day and putting in the work.

Consistency is my guiding word for 2025. It’s easy to get caught up in the excitement of starting something new, but the real challenge lies in staying the course. That’s why I’ve created a clear content strategy for both On My Mind and my social media platforms. From blog posts to TikToks, I’ve planned content that reflects my vision and keeps me accountable. This includes daily posts, updates on my UGC journey, and tips for anyone looking to start their own creative side hustle.

Building my personal brand isn’t just about showcasing my work; it’s about building a community. I hope to connect with people who share my values, whether they’re brands, fellow creators, or followers. I want On My Mind to be a space that inspires, educates, and entertains, covering topics from travel and love to work and creativity. My dream is to expand this platform into a thriving hub that supports and uplifts others.

Of course, no journey is without its challenges. Stepping out of my comfort zone to pursue UGC and focus on my personal brand comes with uncertainties. Will people resonate with my content? Will I be able to maintain consistency? These questions cause hesitation and doubt, but I’m choosing to embrace the unknown and push forward with confidence.

2025 is the year of showing up, trying new things, and learning along the way. It’s about growth—both personal and professional. I’m so excited to see where this journey takes me, and I’m even more excited to bring you along for the ride. Let’s make this year one to remember, together.

Here’s to a year of creativity, connection, and showing up.
