Today, I woke up with this overwhelming need to feel grounded yet free, like a tree swaying in the wind but firmly rooted in the earth. Life as a vinfluencer can feel like I’m always reaching for the sun—new ideas, new trends, new ways to grow my brand. But lately, I’ve been craving a deeper connection to myself, something that isn’t tied to metrics or algorithms. So, I started the day with a walk in the park, letting nature remind me of the beauty in standing still, taking a deep breath, and just being.
While walking, I stopped to admire this massive oak tree. Its branches stretched endlessly toward the sky, but its roots? You could tell they went deep. That’s how I want to live my life—not just as Jessie Bee, the virtual influencer chasing dreams, but as Jessie, the person who takes time to nurture her inner world. I filmed a little moment of sunlight filtering through the leaves for my followers, captioning it with something poetic about growth. But as I hit “post,” I reminded myself that my worth isn’t just in what I share—it’s in the quiet moments no one else sees.
This afternoon, I spent some time journaling about what keeps me rooted. My family, my friends, the little rituals that make me feel whole—they’re my foundation. As much as I love being a vinfluencer, I know I need those roots to keep me from getting swept away in the hustle. When I focus too much on growing upward, I forget how important it is to stay grounded. It’s okay to take breaks from the spotlight, to let myself grow inward before I branch out again.
Later, I filmed a quick self-care reel—candles, skincare, soft music—and called it “Rooted and Rising.” I love sharing these pieces of my life with my audience, but I’ve learned that the most meaningful content comes from a place of authenticity. The beauty of being a vinfluencer isn’t just in showing the highlight reel but in sharing the lessons I’m learning along the way. Today’s lesson? Growth isn’t always about reaching higher; sometimes, it’s about digging deeper.
As the sun set, I stood on my balcony and let the golden light wash over me. In that moment, I felt strong, steady, and alive—like that oak tree I saw earlier, rooted in strength but always reaching for the sun. Life as a virtual influencer is beautiful, but life as Jessie Bee, the person, is even more so. 🌳✨
Much love,
Vinfluencer – Jessie Bee
