Sway Is 5! How Being A Part Of The SITS Girls and Sway group Have Changed My Life!

Although this is a sponsored post written on behalf of Sway Group. All opinions are my own, we were more than happy to celebrate with them!

Being a blogger has been a roller coaster of a journey, lol.  I think if you ask any professional blogger/influencer what the question they get asked most is, it would be “how do you make any money?” I started blogging in 2007 back when the idea of a blog was only common amongst tech geeks and nerds. In fact, back then I had to first explain what a blog is before I could ask people to check it out LOL.

The blogging/influencer marketing industry has grown quickly over the last decade and it’s transformed into something that many of us couldn’t even imagine.  I remember trying to explain to my parents that I wanted to blog full time, they were so disappointed LOL and worried. They couldn’t fathom the idea of me “blogging” and making a viable income. I was very fortunate to come into contact with amazing resources and influencer communities like the SITS Girls. The SITS Girls is an influencer community that empowers and educates bloggers and influencers in the art of blogging, vlogging, and building social influence. When I started my first blog in 2007, the name was horrible lol and the brand wasn’t very brandable… but through the proper education, research and support from the blogosphere I was able to grow and relaunch as Your Life After 25.

Sway Group, which is the influencer marketing business powered by the SITS Girls, actually gave me something to aspire to. When I first started out I didn’t have the stats to qualify. However, I knew that if I could provide my readers with quality content and continue learning from other bloggers and resources that the SITS Girls had to offer that I could one day attain the numbers need to be a part of Sway Group.

As an influencer I know that many bloggers don’t make it past the 1st year and even after that others struggle to turn their passion into a business.  I can honestly say that I feel so blessed to be able to do what I love full time and it’s because of working with such an awesome community and brand like Sway Group.

This year Your Life After 25 also turned 5 years old, every year that we’ve been in business we’ve been blessed with great opportunities. From doing The Blog Workshop an online Blogging conference to writing my cookbook The Pocket Sous Chef, my blogging journey has been a dream come true!

I’m super thankful for Sway Group allowing me to make the income to support my dreams and ambition, in fact I’m currently working on a sustainable fashion brand called Ife Medow which will launch next year. At the end of the day anything is possible and the sky isn’t the limit because there’s so much more beyond that. With that said we want to wish Sway Group a Happy 5th Anniversary!  May they continue to flourish for many more years to come!
