Today I am welcoming Julie from Girl on the Move. Julie has such an inspiring blog. She has some great fitness posts as well as cupcakes! Those 2 subjects alone are enough to make me love Julie for life. Julie is also a fellow co-founder of Blogstaycation 2014. For those of you who aren't familiar, stay tuned cause rumor has it we may be putting together a Winter Blogstaycation...
Q: What do you love most about blogging?
Julie: Hands down,
the thing I love most about blogging is the connections I've made with
other people. I've met people at blog conferences, during Twitter
chats, and through my blogging tribe and some of them have become really
good friends. I love that I can travel to different parts of the
country and have lunch with someone I met because of my blog!
Q: What is your big dream for your blog?
Julie:
Oh my goodness, I have several big dreams for my blog! One is that I
would absolutely love to host a cupcake show on Food Network...but
that's like a very big pipe dream! Probably a little bit more
realistically, I hope that my blog opens up the opportunity for speaking
engagements. I am a former teacher and even though I'm no longer in a
middle school classroom I still love teaching and would love the
opportunity to speak about blogging, social media or organization.
Q: What do you hope your blog means to your readers?
Julie:
Ultimately, I want my blog to be a source of inspiration. An
encouragement to live life to the fullest. Right now I blog mostly
about fitness, travel, cupcakes, and blogging so I hope that my readers
are inspired in those areas. However, in the future I might introduce
new topics...but always with the intent of inspiring readers to try new
things and really live a full life!
Q: What is one thing you wish your readers knew about you?
Julie:
I am an outgoing introvert. Seems strange I know, but it's true!
Basically, I love meeting new people, connecting with others, and being
socially...but I ultimately recharge my energy by being at
home...cooking, reading, watching a movie and basically just relaxing
without lots of people around.
Q: What is your best piece of advice for a new college graduate?
Julie:
Task risks and dream big. You don't have to find a job in your chosen
career right this minute and then stick to it for the next 40 years.
It's okay to try something out and explore other opportunities. And
then take risks and try new opportunities.
Thank you Julie! Great questions. I love getting to know fellow bloggers and this just gave me a bigger picture of what you are working on!
Stay tuned for the finale of this series happening Monday and Tuesday! Be prepared so you can share 5 questions and answers of your own!
Have a great rest of your day!
