I thought I would share some things about myself that you may or may not know, just so you can learn a bit more about me- the person behind my small business and this lil community I'm building!!
So here's 10 facts about me!
-
The basics- I'm Emily (Em) from Surrey in the UK.
-
I have a degree in Music and Live Events management but whilst at uni I decided that I wanted to keep music/concerts as a hobby rather than have a career in it.
-
I'm really into fitness, I even started doing a personal training course until the company I was doing it with went bust so I had to stop! The heaviest I've lifted was a 100kg deadlift and an over 100kg (but I can't remember the exact amount) hip thrust!
-
I am very into my music and going to concerts (see above) and I was even supposed to be going to over 40 concerts in 2020!
-
I started painting denim jackets because I REALLY wanted a Captain Marvel (yes I'm a Marvel fan!) jacket and no where was selling any that I liked or could afford so I thought f* this I can do it myself! Guess it didn't turn out too bad- it resulted in my whole small business!!
-
Staying on the theme of jackets, I have painted 5sos, Yungblud, Liam Payne, Louis Tomlinson and Imagine Dragons inspired denim jackets for myself, all of whom have seen them in person and loved them! I can't sell jackets with their content on unfortunately though, because of copyright!
-
I'm naturally blonde but, as you may have seen, I currently have pink hair!
-
I love love love making new internet friends and over the years have made friends through instagram in the fitness community, through twitter in multiple music fandoms and now through tiktok in the small business community! (Yes internet friends ARE real friends!!)
-
In 2021 I was finally able to quit my part time job as a waitress and focus on my small business full time!! Since then I have taken up another part time job to help me out a bit but I enjoy it much more than my waitressing job!!!
-
As I know personally how it feels to struggle with your mental health, I love to help other people as much as I can which is why I love to share postitivity, inspiration and tips on my social media platforms! I want to help as many people as I can which is why I created my 'find your true self' guide and my gift guide! Nobody should feel like they have no one they can talk to, or feel like they aren't good enough! I am always here for anyone who needs someone to talk to and I promise you, you are good enough and everything will work out how it is supposed to!!
I hope you enjoyed getting to know me a bit more! You can always message me on instagram if you have any questions, you want someone to chat to or if you want to get to know me more!!
