Hi! Yep, that’s me, Jane — a real human. I create my blog content myself, without GenAI.
Most of my content is available for free because this is the blog monetization model that works best for me.
So I don’t have much for you to buy, if anything. (I really hate blatant selling.)
Supporting my blog for free
Because I have display ads on my blog, more traffic = more income. Sharing my blog with other people is a great way to say thank-you without spending money on your part!
Share posts you like on social media, via email, on Pinterest — wherever you like to connect with people.
Other ways to support my blog
- Affiliate links: When you buy something through one of my affiliate links, I earn a commission. (View affiliate-based content for products I use in my life and biz.)
- Buy me a Ko-Fi: Thank me directly by sending me a tip.
- Buy one of my paid offers: There aren’t many, but this is a way to directly support my blog.
How I choose what to recommend
(No junk. No spam. No selling out.)
Affiliate marketing helps support this blog — but I’m pickier than a picky pad about what makes the cut.
What you can expect
- Real talk only. I don’t recommend anything I wouldn’t genuinely use, love or feel good about sharing.
- No gimmicky “must-haves”. If something feels spammy, overly trendy or like it exists just to sell, it’s a no from me.
- Photos from my real life. I use my own pictures whenever possible. If I show it, I’ve likely used it. There may be instances where I share a pic and the background features something I haven’t used. I try to be careful about not doing that.
My own buying habits
You’ll find I do not actively recommend you buy all the things. That’s because I don’t, either.
I lean into conscious consumption, meaning I buy based on my values, needs and wants — but not to have everything.
I’m neither a maximalist nor a minimalist. I’m simply me. My life is lively.
