By Lois Pele It was a Monday afternoon this spring when I received a long awaited phone call from the social media influencer, Grace Liang. I was nervous to pick up the phone because I knew I was either going to get a positive response or a negative one. After picking up the phone and hearing the words “You’re hired” I texted my friend right away and told him that I have received the job! Before Grace reached out about her assistant position I was exploring other fields. Since I am currently in nursing school, I was looking for an opportunity in the hospital for the summer time but they…

The Importance of Learning Body Wisdom
By Natalie Berger (Grace’s assistant) Sunday evening, I got a phone call. I had recently applied for a position as a personal assistant to rising social media star Grace Liang, known for her chic sense of fashion and lifestyle blogging. I met her for the first time several months ago while I was hosting a podcast and was instantly enamored with her confidence, self-awareness, and can-do attitude. So often people preach “you can do anything you want if you set your mind to it,” but most of the time, those people are just digging into a bag of stock quotes to tell their friends when they are feeling down about…

Instagram is planning to Change its “Like” Feature – Everything that Influencers need to know
Since a lot of you might already know that Instagram is removing its “like” feature from the posts soon. Subsequently, Instagram developers have already started testing a beta version in Canada and the United States, which is affecting the sponsorship for some full-time social media influencers like me. Once the change will be made a permanent feature, viewers won’t be able to see the number of “likes” on a post. This can become an issue for the full-time influencers on social media, since, it is the number of likes and the number of engagements that the sponsors look at when investing in a social media influencer. Understandably there is…

Giving Away My Birthday To Someone Else || Fundraiser For Susan G. Komen 3-Day® Walk
Today I turn 45 years old. Looking back to the first half of my life, I have to say, I am a lucky person.

Two summers ago, I was called back to get my second mammogram because the doctor was concerned about the result of my first one. After the second one was done, I was sent to the waiting room for the result. That half hour I spent was probably the longest 30…
