I failed at going viral in my 11 years of creating.
To some, that's a failure.
To me, that taught me where to pivot, where to go hard on (and where not to).

What changed wasn’t the outcomes, but the definition of success itself. It stopped being about attention and started being about sustainability, autonomy, and building something that could support the way I actually want to live. 

Quiet progress. Long-term thinking. Work that matters even when no one is watching.

Success doesn’t have to be loud to be real. You get to decide what counts.

What are some ways you can celebrate your mini achievements in your content creator journey? comment below and i'll celebrate each one of it with you + engage with some of your posts!

As we cross into the new year, I wanted to take a moment to reflect on some quiet milestones from the past year, one of which was going on national radio, something I never imagined myself doing for the last 11 years of running Bel Around The World!!!

Whenever I tell people I'm not putting myself out there enough and I'm afraid of judgment (yes I get real nightmares about it) and I get stage fright, and that's why I "never make it", they find it incredulous. 

Moments like this remind me that growth isn’t always loud. Sometimes it’s simply realising how far you’ve come, even when self-doubt hasn’t fully disappeared. I’ll be sharing more reflections as we step into the new year,  and maybe along the way, you'll realise just how far you've come along too 🙃

For all my dreamers/creators, if you'd like to learn how to be interviewed by national radio stations, click the link in bio on @nobscreators.

And if you'd like to hear the full interview, comment "CNA" below!

Sometimes the biggest changes start with a question you can't quite ignore.

For me, it wasn't about having a perfect plan. It was about being honest enough to admit that the path I was on no longer felt like mine.

The answers can only come along the way.

Let's go on journey along together @belaroundtheworld_.

Couldn’t have asked for a better season. 🤙

Despite the infection on the knee and the 6 stitches by the eye, this makes everything worth it. Thank you for the 1.5 months Lombok!!!! 🏄‍♀️

How fortunate is it to find something you enjoy doing so much you (almost) don’t need anything else 🥹

Heaven shining on us this day, so wanted to memorialise this magic 🌈

1. If I'd never tried skiing and torn my ACL from a nasty fall, I would've never felt how freeing it is to glide into a never-ending white abyss.

2. If I'd never dated the "wrong" guys, how would I have known what love can truly feel (and not feel) like?

3. If I'd never spontaneously invited my "surf instructor" on a trip with me to Mexico, I wouldn't have done a full year of travels around Latin America, and discovered a region that stole my heart.

4. If I'd never quit my job to work in a small town called Fox Glacier in NZ, how would I have known the peace and healing that living in nature can offer?

5. If I'd never fostered a pregnant cat in Peru and witnessed her birth, how would I have known I was capable of such overflowing, unequivocal love?

If I never did the things that scared me, how would I have known what an amazing life this world could possibly offer?

What if you're just one scary decision away from living the life you've always imagined?

Follow @belaroundtheworld_ if you'd like a glimpse of what that might look like.

Sometimes things look fine on paper, but don’t feel right within you.

You’re doing what you’re supposed to do.
Nothing is clearly wrong.
But something feels off.

Starting again usually doesn’t come with clarity.
It might mean you move before you feel ready, and figure things out along the way.

It might not make sense to other people.
Sometimes it won’t even fully make sense to you yet.

But that doesn’t mean it’s the wrong direction.

If you're navigating an unclear path and ready to make a change, let's chat. Link in bio ✨

Solo travel changed more than where I went.

It changed what I value.

Things that used to feel important started to matter less, keeping up, looking successful, following timelines that didn’t really suit me.

Other things started to matter more, peace of mind, freedom, time well spent, and making choices that actually feel right.

Sometimes being in a different environment helps you see your own life more clearly.

You don’t always come back with big answers.
Sometimes you just come back knowing yourself a bit better.
