As Told by Zink

I've been seeing the trending topic of Influencer fatigue and people asking 'are we over Influencers?' I've also had media outlets reach out to me for quotes given my 10+ years of experience with Influencers and PR. I have a lot to say regarding this topic  - let's get into it!

I've been seeing Pua healing through her sound bath classes at all of LA's hot spots [Remedy Place, Equinox, etc] and had to get her on the podcast! I wanted to hear her story and pick her brain on sound bath benefits as I have been wanting to share more ways of holistic healing with my audience, friends, circle etc! We had such a fun, light hearted and spiritual conversation laughing the whole time. Pua's energy is beautiful and you immediately want to be her best friend! Pua shares how she broke her back through competing in gymnastics her whole life [all the way to UCLA!] and went the holistic route of healing through visualization. She then intuitively went into practicing sound bath healing to help others! Pua is an entrepreneur through and through and the sky's the limit with her! She shares her future plans of opening a sanctuary and how she plans to get there through connections, building, practice, expanding and of course visualization ;)

We also chat eye gazing, mental health, getting to know yourself again after life changes, finding life purpose and manifesting soulmates.

Excited for you to hear this one!

Hello, hello! I haven't had a solo episode in awhile. I felt like this was the perfect opportunity to share insight into the social media landscape / Influencer marketing so far this year! As you all know, social media is a rapidly growing space and it's always changing up on us! I discuss what brands are looking for, how to ensure you can consistently evolve / stay relevant and I give some insider tea into what I'm seeing so far this year!

Met Dom Cianciotto, the Director of Community + Experiences @ Plunge to discuss all things ice plunging, cold therapy, mental health and changing your life through positive habits. Sometimes we find ourselves in the lowest part of the journey and Dom shares how to stay positive by shifting your mindset and understanding that it's not happening to you, but for you. Dom's life and perspective changed after having open heart surgery at only 33. 

If you've been in a funk feeling that you can't seem to find clarity or struggling with mental health, this is the episode for you! We also chat LA hot spots, sober friend dates and Dom shares how to do an Erewhon vibe check!

My client Nikki Rossi was visiting LA from London, so you know we had to get her on the pod! Such a fun chat surrounding fashion, content shoots, curating your social media following and tips for starting out as a creator!

I've gone to a few of Motion LA's events and absolutely loved it! The community, the energy, the brand partners and of course the group fitness class that always kicks my butt. It was so great to sit down with Sasha Solonin, the mastermind behind the organization and hear how he started Motion LA, evolved the business, maintained on top in a now saturated space in LA and how it's like starting a business with your friends! We also dive into wellness, discuss fun sober dates and fitness hobbies outside of the gym!

There's a small voice inside of you, sometimes even faint telling you what direction to go and what choices to make. Some people listen and some people ignore it. The difference between these two sets of people is that the first set never settled, embodies happiness, are fulfilled and beyond successful in every way imaginable. They are exactly where they are supposed to be. The second set chose familiarity and comfort -- never truly feeling satisfied and at peace. Stop controlling every aspect of your life and instead let destiny guide you.

Walking through my current favorites and new purchases! I share what I've been loving and implementing into my rituals. We'll also go through all of the new products/items I've bought this month and will of course give honest reviews once tried. Enjoy!

It's easy to want to copy someone who is doing their craft well, but if you do that you're essentially stealing their hard work, vision and ideas. Faking it & cloning in hopes of having their success. 

If you can't create your own content, business, brand, designs [etc] then you shouldn't be in the space. If you need to copy people, then you don't have the talent to do what they do, so find something that actually suits you and your natural talents. We need to keep promoting originality and calling out imposters! Everyone can win in their own right - remember that.
