I'm thrilled to welcome Emma Cortes (@emmasedition) to the podcast today! After being laid off from her job in the aerospace industry last year, she became a full-time blogger and course creator. In the first half of 2021, she's already secured $100,000+ in brand partnerships. We talk about how she decided to pursue full-time blogging, why influencing is definitely a "real job," why she thinks it's important for women of color to be open about how much we're making, and more.
04:00: how her career first began
10:30: using business strategy as an influencer
14:00: being public about how much money she makes
26:00: being laid off from Boeing
33:00: her daily routine
