Okay, besties — this one’s a little spicy. Today I’m joined by my producer Marie from Your Girl Media and Culture Cult Show and we’re calling out the big ol’ ego problem in the creator space: choosing clout over alignment. If you’ve ever been ghosted, judged by your follower count, or felt stuck pitching your services as a travel creator, UGC creator, or content creator, this episode is for you.

We get into:

• Why follower count ≠ real opportunity (spoiler: it’s all about alignment).
• The red flags to look out for when pitching UGC services.
• The art of how to pitch so you actually get a response.
• Why networking is just making friends (yes, it’s that simple).
• Shifting from desperation to fun when you’re building your content creation business.

You’ll walk away with practical pitching tips, mindset shifts for content creators, and a reminder that genuine connections will take you further than any vanity metric ever will.

If you’ve ever felt the pressure to create 47 different income streams just to “make it,” this episode is for you. As a travel creator or travel influencer, you’ve probably heard all the advice—sell courses, start affiliate marketing, launch digital products, do brand partnerships. But here’s the truth: more doesn’t always mean better.

Today, I’m breaking down what actually works when it comes to building multiple streams of income as a content creator—without burning yourself out.

What You’ll Learn in This Episode:

• Why too many income streams can actually hurt your business.
• The three types of income streams that complement each other perfectly for travel creators.
• How to know when you’re ready to add a new income stream.
• Why “less but better” is the secret to sustainable passive income.
• How to choose offers that serve your audience AND fit your long-term vision.

Key Takeaways for Travel Influencers + Content Creators:
👉 Your core offer is your foundation—master it first before adding anything else.
👉 Not all income streams are created equal. Focus on ones that align with your skills and your audience.
👉 Passive income is amazing, but only when it’s built on top of something sustainable.
👉 Shiny object syndrome is real—say no to monetization paths that don’t serve your long-term goals.

Call to Action:
If you’re ready to build multiple income streams as a travel influencer or content creator—but want to do it in a way that feels sustainable and smart—this episode will give you the clarity you’ve been craving.

Hey creators—let’s get real for a second. Just because you’ve built a big audience doesn’t mean you’ve built a business. I know, that’s a little spicy to say out loud, but it’s the truth. And in this episode, I’m breaking down exactly why focusing only on audience growth will leave you burned out, broke, and wondering why those brand deals never seem to come your way.

As a travel creator and content strategist, I see this all the time: talented content creators chasing follower counts instead of setting up systems that actually generate revenue. Having 100K followers doesn’t matter if you don’t know what you’re selling, who you’re selling it to, or how your business makes money when you’re not glued to Instagram or TikTok.

Inside this episode, we’ll cover:

• The big lie about “just grow your audience and the money will follow.”
• The real difference between an audience and a content business.
• Why “going viral” doesn’t guarantee income (and what does).
• The business systems you must have in place if you want to stop chasing followers and start creating freedom.

f you’re tired of feeding the content machine without seeing results, this is your reminder to shift your focus from vanity metrics to sustainable business growth.
