Social Media Changes
[24:45]
She thinks that social media is getting a little bit harder. She gets frustrated with Instagram because she is making sure to get a certain amount of likes to please the companies she’s working with. She feels like constantly trying to push out content just because it’s sponsored. She added that it feels more like making sure people are engaging rather than creating content that she likes. She also said that she is sometimes too focused on the numbers.
