Heyyyy, today is Presiii’s birthday. Let me just say, it has been a crazy good year! Today make it a year since I launched this lifestyle and health blog; so Happy Blogiversary to Presiii. Looking back, I was at work pretty much all day on December 31st but my blog coach encouraged that I launch it before 2018 and I went for it since I got about everything under control at the time. 

My blog has evolved day by day, even though it can be a challenge to stay on top of all social media platforms when I am working 20-30+ hours overtime a week. Anyway, I first thought about blogging in 2016. I have watched people doing it, I have done my little research but never really got the gut to start or not knowing exactly where to start. I even took quite a few headshots and fun pictures for my ”potential blog” but never started until I saw a Facebook post from iam.priiincesss.com last year saying ” you spend times on social media anyway, why not do something beneficial”! That was it…! Couple weeks later, iampriiincesss also shared a post about Blog 101  and I jumped right to it; had my virtual meeting with her and followed all the steps until the blog was ready by December 31st, 2017

Fast forward a year later; I still have a lot of learning to do, I also have an intense position at work and barely have time but I make it work. My first aha moment was increasing my Pinterest from 700 to 18.9k monthly views and reaching about up to 2k/monthly from the blog Facebook page. My goal for the upcoming year is to monetize this blog in any way possible and I am super excited. Overall, this space is where I write about lifestyle, health, and inspirational stories; pretty much everything that comes with these categories and I hope this is a genuine source of inspiration for you. This is a forum I share my (now) love of writing because it was impossible for me to write over a thousand words just for fun, and my love of meeting new people of course.

Now talking about the love of meeting new people; I have had the chance to interview or collab with some awesome individuals for the blog. They are part of my growth because they were willing to do our Q&As, do guest posts or participate in any ways possible without hesitation. For that, I have reshared all the collabs from the blog throughout the month of December. However, if you missed any of them, the links are just right below as well as a video of them.
