Does The Price of Influencer Fame HAVE To Be Your Private Life?

This week, we’re joined by THE fabulous SimiMoonlight as she takes us through what it’s really like being a notable fashion and lifestyle content creator in a world with increasing parasocial relationships & less boundaries as you become more visible on the internet. An episode without our silliness doesn’t exist so obviously we talked about the big lady age that is 30+ and all it comes with, and the comedic relief that is Nollywood. We also tackle some really interesting dilemmas around twin-sibling relationships, broken trust in a very new marriage and what it’s like to dislike your in-laws. Of course we’re still reeling from the high of our New York show & we’d like to say a huge thanks to you guys for coming out.
