There is no better feeling than starting something new. So many emotions are bottled up into one thing – fear, excitement, anxiety, hope… and once you actually build up the courage to start whatever new thing you’re planning on, it’s like you just went through a transformation!
This blog has been my creative outlet for the past 3 years. I started The Page Avenue after taking a blogging course by Sophia Lee and was so inspired by what she was doing that I wanted to create something of my own. I purchased a website kit, bought my domain, and GOT TO WORK. My middle name is Page, so it was an ode to myself and curating an “avenue” online where I could help the girlies be inspired. At the time, I was living in 30A, Florida during a short-term rental stay, which was my first-try at beach life. Sophia’s advice was to keep the blog quiet, and market privately because managing it on top of social media was a lot of work. I took that advice and have been secretly managing this blog for 3 years while doing pinterest and SEO marketing behind the scenes. To other people, it may seem like “why would you start a blog, aren’t those outdated” or “cool, you do a blog, not a real job”…. and to each of those things I say try being me for a day and you’ll see!! I’ve reached hundreds of thousands of women on The Page Avenue and have hit milestones I never thought I could achieve – like reaching 1M people in a month on Pinterest, getting brand collaborations, working with people I admire and look up to, etc.. TPA has been my passion project, my first child essentially!
My vision for The Page Avenue has always been to expand and grow. I’m so excited to keep fueling my passions on the blog, and finally quit keeping this a secret! On top of that, I will also be releasing new forms of content as an extension of TPA, on my new podcast, Beyond The Page!! We’ll cover topics to help you live your best life – on and offline. From career, to wellness, to relationships, and self-growth, we will cover it all! It still doesn’t feel like real life that I am starting this new beginning but I couldn’t be more excited! I have found some incredible women who have podcasts of their own to come on and chit chat and help inspire you even further – beyond the pages of the internet.
Stay tuned for episode 1 that is dropping tomorrow where I’ll be breaking down the vision for the show!
Love you all and thank you for supporting this journey of mine for 3+ years!
