27 years old Hungarian woman. Full time mother of a one year old baby, comedian, youtuber, blogger, podcaster, and author of a book called “How to be perfect” (translated from Hungarian). A book about self love, confidence, and many more topics mostly for women.
1. Tell us about your background and journey.
I am a Hungarian woman, but grew up in Italy. I’ve travelled a lot in my life. It wasn’t always easy. I don’t come from a healthy, wealthy, strong and loving family. I’ve learned a lot in my life and consider myself very wise thanks to some situations I’ve been through.
I’ve now finally reached a point in my life where I feel complete. I found myself and my purpose and continue to bring a smile to people’s faces and help many other women to find their own paths.
2. Describe your writing process, from concept to publishing. How do you stay motivated?
3. What type of networking do you think is better to enhance your traffic to the blog?
2. Describe your writing process, from concept to publishing. How do you stay motivated?
If I think about how I wrote my book, the question “How do you stay motivated?” actually gave me the idea to publish my own book. People always ask me this question, because they don’t understand how it can be possible that I’m always staying positive, and happy. So I thought “Why not write a book about it?”
I spoke about it before on my youtube channel, and people loved it, so I thought “Let’s make it into something big!” And there I was with a three month old baby on my side, writing a few pages every single night, when everyone was already sleeping, except me. That’s when I had the time to write down my thoughts.
And I never over complicate it, when it comes to speaking my mind. I’m just honest, that’s the key. The love and support from the people who follow me is a big push. I don’t try to fit in anyone’s box, I’m just being myself, and still hundreds of thousands of people love and support me.
They say I motivate them, and that’s my motivation.
3. What type of networking do you think is better to enhance your traffic to the blog?
I’m not the best person to ask this from, because I never really followed how the traffic is on my blog. All I knew is more and more people started to follow me. I think it’s because I mixed so many contents, from funny videos to telling horror stories, that I attracted every kind of person, any age, any gender, and any background.
Feelings bring people together. Everyone has feelings despite our gender, skin color, or financial status. I give people feelings. Sometimes I make them laugh, sometimes I make them cry, sometimes I boost their adrenaline. I think this works like a magnet.
4. How do you manage time to run your blog efficiently?
At the moment, very poorly. It was so easy, when I didn’t have to worry about anything else, but me. Now, I’ve been keeping it low since I have a baby. It was hard at the beginning, because people were waiting for me to upload new content, and it was a big pressure on my shoulders.
I understood since, that I can’t force anything. So what I do now is going in different directions. I started with the book, because I was able to write it quietly at night. And it was a huge success! Then came the podcast, because talking on a podcast is way easier with a baby in my hand, than recording a video.
I can pause anytime I want, and there’s no need to edit it after. But I know I post way less, than I did before becoming a mother. I will be back to running my pages the way I did before, soon as I’m ready. Until then, it is what it is.
5. Is Vlogging and YouTube content creation a financially sustainable career?
Yes!!! Even though an American Youtuber, or in fact any other Youtuber that speaks English in their videos earns a lot more than me, because my videos are all in Hungarian, I can still say that it’s a very good source of income, and there’s no need to invest any money in it in fact.

You need a phone or a camera, and some personality. I earn more than many doctors in my country, and I have no degree, never went to University. I think it’s sad in a way, because they studied their *** off, and here I am making videos with an iPhone. But it’s an interesting way to look at it.
So yes, it’s definitely something beneficial, if you take the right steps along the way of becoming more and more popular online.
6. How do you come up with video ideas?
Easy, I just speak about whatever I’m interested in. Those are the things I can speak about with passion. That’s why I say you have to be true to yourself and honest. Faking won’t take you long, and showing a different persona online neither.

Being yourself and putting out content that reflects you and your personality will attract people who are alike, and of course they are going to love what you do. For example, if you love old Hollywood movies, you can talk about your favorite movies, fashion, actors, you can look up unknown facts about those movies, and so on.
But you certainly don’t have to make a Youtube channel about today’s celebrity gossip just ‘cause it might attract more views. Do you, and stay consistent!
7. What is your long term plan/ future plans ?
My main job is going to be being a mother, that comes before everything else. I consider myself very lucky, because I have a loving husband, who is the main earner in our home, so I don’t depend financially on my projects.

Still, I wouldn’t be satisfied with being a stay at home mom, and nothing else, even if it’s a hard job by itself. So I’m constantly making up new ideas in my mind, and I make the best of them come to life.
One thing I’m not going to do is let all these people who follow me on all these social media platforms go to waste. Having a name that’s well known all over my country opens the door for me to many business opportunities.
My next project is my own jewelry line, which I’m already working on.
8. Which is your favorite book and why?
My own book “How to be perfect?” ('Hogyan legyél tökéletes?' in Hungarian) is my favorite book. You know why? Because it’s a book that helped me and healed me while I was writing it. It’s a book that also helped so many girls and women, and I was surprised to see that men loved it too. I received videos from husbands who surprised their spouses with my book, and their wives cried when they opened the present.
Can you imagine that feeling I had watching videos like this? Not to mention all the positive feedback, all the “Thank you” messages, all the stories of how I helped my readers see things in a different way after reading my book. All the success stories of women who got enough courage to start a new business, a new life, a new journey after reading my advice. I can say that I am very proud of myself. It’s a good feeling.
