Hey remember me? Well I’m backkk! In December I decided to take a hiatus from blogging. I have been consistently blogging since 2008 and this is my first time taking an extended break. There were a few reasons why I decided to take some time off. One was that I found myself stressing over dumb stuff like Instagram’s latest algorithm, when to post, when not to post, how many likes I was getting, etc. Blogging just wasn’t fun for me anymore. I really needed to step back and re-evaluate everything to see if I still wanted to continue this influencer life. I didn’t think it would take five months but I’m glad that I was able to take my time and do things on my terms.

One of the first things I knew I had to do was change my name. “Skinny Hipster” has been my identity since I first started and I am no longer that person. I have been fighting this change for about three years now and it’s time. Letting go of the Skinny Hipster moniker is emotional for me because that’s my baby and I never imagined having to change it. But it’s time to start afresh, time to start having fun with blogging again. I understand that I still have a lot to learn, but I’m loving who I’m becoming.
