Everyone loves to hate on influencers but they have no idea what it takes to be one.
However, it isn’t all hate that creators receive.
Its about time they do.
1.I definitely wasnt ready for all the salacious DMs.

“My answer: Men.
I hope to God their continued procreation ends soon and swiftly, or those children get help.
And Id say it to their face.

“I get asked about my body and genitals daily.
13.People constantly think they know things about you.
For example, one website said Im a professional boxer, lol.
Some websites say Im 24 years old, and some say Im 30.
Or when I post a male in my content they assume Im dating them.
They may also be unsure of how to price their work and profit in their business.
“Being asked to create content for free.
Interview Megan Rapinoe about pay equity at a pay equity conference?
Travel to Milwaukee with my team and let a government Speaker take over my account for the day?
You name it, a company has asked me to do that for free.”
16.The amount of angry energy for just about anything.
Im a DIY content creator, who knew how inflammatory thrift flips could be.
So, I was invited and uninvited on the same day lol.”
- Amber Wallin from@burr_iamon IG
But it’s not all bad.
There are unbelievable GOOD things that they’ve experienced too.
19.I once got to stay at an ice hotel in Sweden, all by myself.
An entire palace carved out of ice, in the middle of nowhere.
I was equal parts thrilled and terrified.

“One of the most surreal experiences is getting recognized in the most unexpected places around the world.
She said I was distinctly recognizable because I was the one who inspired her to take her cat outside.
It’s Audrey from Instagram!'
It’s wild to think about how small the world can feel through these connections.”
21.DMs are my favorite part of social media because of the personal connections I get to make.
As an astrologer I have the privilege of being connected to people in a deep way.
I get messages from folks sharing their deepest struggles and accomplishments.
23.The cool connections you make from people youd otherwise never have the opportunity to connect with.
The content you’re watching and reading comes from content creators and influencers.
Without them, you’d be really bored.
So, thank them the next time they post.
Or at least leave them alone if you have nothing nice to say.
