We live in the digital age. The age where people have a unique ability to brand themselves and control their image in a way we've never had before. Something as trivial as the instagram bio can define what you want to be in this world, and even help you get there. This is particularly revolutionary for women in the spotlight. Recently, Kim Kardashian posted her nude selfie, which caused a sea headlines and responses immediately, some supportive, others harshly critical. Rowan Blanchard commented on this on her twitter, and said it best:
I think we should be grateful, particularly as women, that we have some power to control our image, and are given a platform to have a voice.
As my exams come to an end, I'm thinking about the direction I want to take my blog, my career and all that goes with it. I have many interests and passions, many of which I've rejected from sharing on my blog on the basis that conventional wisdom suggests it is better to focus on one or two key things. This has also coincided with a recent, rather cliché, existential crisis of what I want to do with my career, even though I still have a few years of education to go. Yes, I'm thinking about it, and there are so many different paths and directions I could take that I'm wondering what choices I can make now and what impact they will have.
Living in this age, I have a platform to share my interests, engage with others and develop my digital identity. But what do I do if I haven't really figured out my self yet, let alone my brand?
