Before the content, there’s YOU!

Influencer Insights Newsletter #107

Hey hey 👋

Let’s talk about something that doesn’t get enough attention in the creator world: your mindset.

You can have the best lighting, killer captions, and trending sounds—but if your energy is off, people feel it.

And if you’re not feeling you, it’s hard to show up in a way that connects with your audience.

So this week, we’re going inward. Because real influence?

It starts before you even hit “record.”

What do you think about our newsletter⁉️

We're always looking to improve and your suggestions, criticisms, and ideas are essential to this process.

Earn your own respect

You ever finish a task and think, “Damn, I did that”?

That’s the feeling. Self-respect doesn’t come from compliments—it comes from doing the hard thing, even when no one’s watching.

✅ Challenge for today:

Pick one thing you’ve been avoiding (posting a Reel, pitching a brand, reaching out to a new collab)—and do it today. Just one. Then give yourself props.

Shift your focus

Here’s a mindset hack from Tony Robbins:

You don’t experience life, you experience what you focus on.

If you’re stuck thinking about low views, missed deals, or “why isn’t this working?”… guess what you’re gonna feel? 👀

Flip it.

✅ Try this:

Before you scroll or post, ask:

What’s working right now?

What am I proud of today?

Even small wins count. ESPECIALLY small wins.

Morning “priming” (aka set the vibe)

Your energy online reflects your energy offline.

Tony does this thing called “priming” every morning, and no, it’s not skincare.

✅ Try this in the AM (takes 5 mins):

• Think of 3 things you’re grateful for (really feel them)

• Send love/good energy to someone in your life (or your audience!)

• Visualize crushing 1 goal like it already happened

(Picture that brand collab email landing in your inbox 😏)

This centers you before the day starts pulling you in 50 directions.

Be pulled, not pushed

You don’t need to hustle 24/7 to succeed. That energy burns out fast.

Instead of pushing yourself out of fear (“I need to grow or I’ll fail!”), get pulled by something you actually care about.

✅ Ask yourself:

Who am I doing this for?

What lights me up about this work?

When your “why” is strong, showing up gets a whole lot easier.
