Simply Introspective

Hello listeners! It's been a while, I know. With quarantine still going strong & the BLM taking center stage, my motivation to put out my own content was halted, for a good reason. I've had this episode recorded since the beginning of June, but I wanted to take the time to educate myself & become more aware of the injustices in America currently. Additionally, to cater to my own mental health & creative slump. I talk about the BLM movement from an influencer/collaborator standpoint & talk about the creators & brands that I discovered so you can support them too! I know I'm not the most educated & eloquent with these topics, but I still want to lift up Black creators & educate my following. I also discuss the current organizations that I want to continue the conversation in. I hope we can all keep up the momentum. Sign petitions, donate & educate! Also, wear your masks. Bye for now!

In the midst of the coronavirus, I give my two cents about keeping busy and productive, personal opinions on current events and try and give positive advice about going forward. If you have any questions or comments, shoot me a message on Instagram @emmaknickse! 

Today on the pod, I'm giving a few fun facts about who I am and what I want to see myself become in the next year. Going over my highs n lows, goals for this year, and reflecting briefly on 2019 and the many experiences it brought. 

Hi, I'm Emma Nickse. I'm a freshman at the University of Florida, and I've got some insight under my belt. This is an experimental episode, so we'll see where this takes me!
