Top 45 Ontario Lifestyle Influencers??? Wait what??!! Because honestly, I did not expect this at all! Being included on the list feels incredibly surreal and deeply meaningful to me.
It was the last day of 2025, and for some reason, I could not fall asleep. At exactly 2:34 AM, my phone lit up with an email notification. And this is funny because I usually do not check my emails. I am actually really bad at it. 😭
But something about that moment felt different. Without thinking, my hands just tapped the notification. And there it was. An email saying that I was selected as one of the…
Top 45 Ontario Lifestyle Influencers
I remember staring at my screen in disbelief, rereading the words over and over again, half awake and half emotional. It felt unreal. I know it is not a big official industry award or anything like that, but it still meant so much to me. Like one of those quiet moments where everything suddenly feels aligned, even when you were not expecting anything at all.
That unexpected email turned a restless night into a memory I will never forget.
I ACTUALLY PLACED 38TH AS A LIFESTYLE INFLUENCER!!! 😮😮
Almost 10 Years of Creating, Growing, and Learning
I started creating content back in 2016, long before I ever thought about titles, lists, or achievements. Back then, it was never about growth or numbers. It was about sharing moments, things I loved, little joys, and pieces of my everyday life.
If I am being completely honest, this journey has not been linear. There were seasons when I was consistent and seasons when I disappeared. There were moments of doubt, burnout, comparison, and questioning if this was even worth continuing.
And yet, here I am. Part of the Top 45 Ontario Lifestyle Influencers 🥹
A Fresh Start in Toronto
Moving to Toronto 2 years ago felt like a reset in so many ways. Living on my own for the first time taught me so much about independence, growth, and trusting myself, something I shared more deeply in my blog about my experience of living alone for the first time.
New environment, new energy, new inspirations. I became more active again just this year, not because I felt pressured, but because I genuinely wanted to document my days, my thoughts, and my experiences.
Truthfully, I was not even that consistent. I did not have a strict posting schedule or a perfectly planned strategy. But I tried. I showed up when I could. I shared when it felt right.
This recognition reminded me that showing up imperfectly still matters.

Gratitude Over Everything
Being included on this list feels like a quiet affirmation. A reminder that even the small moments, the casual posts, the honest captions, and the imperfect consistency can still reach people in ways we do not always see.
I am so grateful to everyone who has supported me, engaged with my content, sent kind messages, or simply stayed along for the journey. This is not just a personal win. It feels like a shared moment.
If you want to follow along more closely, my Instagram is where I share most of my day-to-day moments and is actually the account that helped me get on this list. Trust me, more exciting things are coming ✨
This Is Just the Beginning
This recognition motivates me to keep creating in a way that feels authentic, sustainable, and real. I want my content to continue being a safe space, a comforting scroll, and a reminder that you do not have to have everything figured out to be worthy of being seen.
To anyone who is creating quietly, inconsistently, or without certainty, this is your sign to keep going.
Thank you for being here. Thank you for growing with me. And thank you for reminding me why I started in the first place.
