We originally planned to elope in Italy just the two of us, but at the last minute, we changed our minds. We couldn’t imagine saying “I do” without our family, so we got married in Vancouver instead back in June...

But that didn’t stop us from having the best of both worlds!

A couple of months ago, we went to Italy and France for our honeymoon (those of you who followed along my 30 days of vlogging will know this!) and we decided to share our vows again, this time as husband and wife - just us two :)

We thought it might feel repetitive, but it actually hit so different!

This moment was one of the most special memories we’ve ever had, and we feel so grateful to share a small piece of it with you. ❤️

Someone sent me feedback about my content.

It wasn’t mean, but it hit hard.

Probably because there was truth in it.

The DM critiqued the content I’ve been creating for my new business, Superboba.

And after reading it, I just burst into tears. Full-on ugly crying.

But after sitting with it and wondering WHY it affected me so much, I realized that moment showed me how frustrating it really is to start over after you’ve already been known as “successful” in a different industry or niche.

How hard it is to rebuild your skills, your systems, and your confidence in a completely new space while still having an audience watching you figure it out.

Anyways, this happened a couple of days ago, and because I learned a lot about myself from it, I decided to film this super candid video breaking down my thoughts, feelings, and learnings.

You can watch here: https://youtu.be/ZaR18hgpfb4

It’s a real-talk, yap-style video of me candidly processing what I’ve been feeling lately and what’s been helping me navigate this season of transition and being “in between" businesses.

PS: Happy halloween! LOL

I vlogged every day for 30 days and honestly, it was one of the best things I’ve ever done as a creator!

Before this challenge, I felt so stuck.

I wasn’t posting consistently, I didn’t know what direction my content was going, and I kept overthinking what my “niche” should be.

So I decided to stop thinking and just start documenting.

For 30 days straight, I picked up the camera, filmed short-form vlogs, and shared whatever was happening in my real life.

No strategy, no pressure, just stories.

What surprised me most?

1. Filming every day actually made me less glued to social media
2. It reignited my creativity and helped me rediscover what I genuinely enjoy creating
3. I became faster at editing and less obsessed with “perfect timing” or “optimal posting hours”
4. I learned to see my content in seasons, not niches, which has changed everything for me

In this week’s video, I’m breaking it all down:

📸 Gear recommendations: from beginner-friendly setups to pro-level upgrades
🎥 Filming tips: how to capture engaging shots and stay consistent
🗒️ Scripting tips: how I write and record natural, story-driven voiceovers
✂️ Editing tutorial: my full process for cutting and polishing vlogs in CapCut

If you’ve been feeling uninspired lately, maybe this is your sign to try your own 7-day or 30-day vlogging challenge.

Start small and let the process teach you! Would you ever try something like this? 👀

On June 22, 2025, I married my best friend!

Leon and I met in high school. I was 14 and he was 17.

We had an intimate 15-person wedding with our closest family in the heart of Vancouver, BC.

This marks one of the most important and beautiful days of our lives, and I'm grateful to be sharing a piece of it with you!

Our wedding video is now live! Watch it here to see a small glimpse of our special day :)

The last 12 months have been a grind.

I was posting less, overthinking every piece of content, and feeling like my priorities were all over the place.

Then, about a month ago, I decided something had to change.

I didn’t burn everything down or completely reinvent my strategy.

Instead, I made a handful of small but intentional shifts to my mindset, business, and lifestyle, including he way I work, create, and structure my days.

The result?

I’m posting more content than I have in months, my physical product business is gaining momentum again, and I finally feel excited to sit down and work each day.

It wasn’t about hustling harder… it was about working differently.

And honestly, I wish I’d made these shifts sooner.

If you’ve been feeling stuck, overworked, or just uninspired, maybe this will spark some ideas for you too!

👉🏻 Breakdown of the 5 phases I've gone through in the last decade: Girl Boss → Complete Burnout → Soft Girl → Artist → Confused AF Founder

👉🏻 How marriage made me realize I was failing as both a wife AND business partner

👉🏻 The brutal wake-up call that led me to cancel 75% of my upcoming brand deals

👉🏻 Why I'm risking guaranteed YouTube income for a new business I'm building
