Practice Mindfulness

One of the things that Jacquelyn Umof always makes sure to practice is mindfulness. Even though she accomplished so much early on in her career, she was always concerned with what was happening next. She never felt like she was truly present - and that is a recipe for never feeling happy or fulfilled. 

Never Lose Sight of Your WHY

Even with 475,000 followers on Instagram, Jacquelyn still loves to see her readers inspired by what she posts. This is a great lesson for all influencers who feel stuck in a rut or not sure of their next steps - you can always travel back to why you began in the first place.

Stay True to Your Brand

"I have never posted about a product I didn't believe in", says Jacquelyn. Even though a brand she didn't love offered her a TON of money - she didn't take it. Moves like this are what keep her feed authentic.

When it comes to multiple sponsorships? "I believe in not saturating my feed with product," she says. Promoting a select few products that you truly believe in is the key to a successful feed.  

Stand Out from the Crowd

With Instagram on the rise and more and more influencers joining the market, how does Jacquelyn stand out from the crowd? She thinks: "Would I want to follow me?". It's all about sharing your story vulnerably - Jacquelyn never shies away from sharing her journey or creating content she believes in.
