Putting a booth on the PAX floor for Twitch somehow feels like the biggest achievement of my career. Something I’d dreamed of doing for years, and now it’s here.
I really hope y’all like it 💜

I spend a lot of my (unpaid) free time recommending ANZ creators to businesses and brands, and will I stop? No. I want to see this industry succeed and I have to use all this knowledge in my head somehow.

For the love of god please do not listen to anyone who tells you that you could have done something to prevent being laid off. Especially *checks notes* having a personal brand. Excuse my language but they can fuck all the way off.

Saying ‘this isn’t NZ’ is kind of like when people make excuses for others like, ‘but you know, they’re usually a good person they didn’t mean it like that.’
This has happened. It is us. We can wish it hadn’t, but that’s not where we’re at.

I just caught myself thinking, "wow I am lucky I have only been bullied by men in this industry."
Lucky. To ONLY be bullied. That is messed up.

Did y’all know the COO of Twitch is a kiwi woman? I didn’t. And now I am equal parts inspired and overwhelmed.
I’m having a crisis that my big dreams maybe /are/ possible, and wondering /how/ to achieve things that large.

A profoundly simple tip for creators... ya'll gotta learn to be good with email.
I know it's a meme at this point that creators don't email etc, but the entire biz world is going to prioritise you if you can learn to manage ya email! It will be worth your time. I promise.

A friendly reminder that if you like the things people are doing, tell them!
People* are their own worst critics and it's really easy to get caught up in any negativity that you see. It is like the best breath of fresh air to hear someone appreciates what you do!

It is always nice to know you made an impact on people with your work. I appreciate the kind words!
However this job is so far from done. & to be honest my work supporting underrepresented groups doesn't stop because they stop paying me, it never did 🖤 always here if I can help
We want to take a moment to thank @hellomisspotter and @Vondle for the work they have done over the last few years for us mob and other First Nations communities
They’ve helped open spaces for us we never could have dreamed of and we are eternally grateful 💜

It feels so, so amazing 💜
