This is where the influencer space gets a little… murky.

Because behind every “collab” or “campaign”
there’s often a small business taking a very real financial risk.

Sophie from .vottari took that risk.
And got left with $50K worth of stock when an influencer pulled out.

Then came in… and reminded us what influence is actually supposed to look like.

Impact.
Support.
Community.

Not just contracts and cash.

And yes…I supported it. Happily.

Like we don’t have enough going on right now…

Cost of living through the roof.
Petrol prices out of control.
A government that feels completely disconnected from everyday people.

All we’re asking for is a small win.
A moment.
A little sliver of joy.

And for Italians (and anyone with Italian heritage) this morning felt like it might be it.

We had hope.

And then… we got absolutely bitch slapped.

Italy.
Out of the World Cup. 😩🫣

Wait. It’s almost April. How?

We’ve been a little bit busy so far in 2026 and this reel is proof that we haven’t come up for air once (this isn’t even half of what we’ve done!)

Here’s where we’re at for reel shoots:
April — fully booked. Gone. Bye.
May — 1 spot left.
June — 2 spots.
July — 3 spots.

If you’ve been sitting on the fence wondering whether reels are for you, whether you’d even know what to do, need some hand holding, that’s what we’re here for!

We offer:
B roll shoots
Full reels shoots (Melb, Gold Coast & Brissie)
Reels creation from your own footage

Send me a DM to get the conversation started and let’s have some fun together.

Wait.

You mean I can have 40+ pieces of strategic, on-brand footage of me and my business…without committing to a full Reels shoot?

Yes. Yes you can.

It’s called B-Roll Bank and honestly? It’s the most underrated service we offer.

Imagine this:
You open a Dropbox folder and sitting there is a library of intentional, scroll-worthy clips of YOU.
You working.
Your team in action.
Detail shots.
Movement.
Personality.
Moments.

Not stock.
Not awkward behind-the-scenes chaos.
Not “quick, film something while my hair looks decent.”

We spend one focused hour capturing purposeful, strategic content, with a plan. Always with a plan.

Then we hand it all over. Organised. Ready. Waiting.

So when you need:
✨ Filler footage for a trending audio
✨ Vision shots for a launch
✨ Clips for a staff intro
✨ Overlay content for a talking Reel
✨ Something to post without reusing the same 3 videos again

You’re not scrambling.
You’re not setting up your tripod at 9pm.
You’re not thinking, “I have nothing to post.”

You just… open the folder.

And there it is, content on tap.

If you’re time-poor, budget-conscious, but still want your socials to look polished and intentional, this is your moment.

B-Roll Bank.
Low commitment.
High impact.
Zero panic filming.

DM me “BANK” and I’ll send you the details.

Last night wasn’t drama. It was disturbing.

I watch MAFS for the chaos like everyone else. I know editing plays a role. I know it’s heightened for TV. But editing cannot fabricate the words that came out of someone’s mouth.

And they were vile.

Calculated.
Personal.
Designed to humiliate.

You could feel the shift at the table. The discomfort. The second-hand embarrassment. The kind where everyone goes quiet because they know a line has been crossed.

And here’s the part that really gets me.

You can be a model.
You can be breathtakingly beautiful.
You can have the body, the face, the following.
And still be deeply insecure.

Because secure people don’t need to annihilate others to feel powerful.

What we watched wasn’t strength. It wasn’t “telling it how it is”. It wasn’t confidence. It was someone trying to shrink other women in order to feel bigger.

And this is the bigger issue.

We talk about women lacking confidence.
We run workshops on visibility and getting yourself out there. We tell women to back themselves.

But then we normalise this kind of behaviour as entertainment.

No wonder so many women are scared to speak up.
No wonder we soften our opinions.
No wonder we hesitate to show up online or in business.

When you see what happens to women who are visible, you learn very quickly that standing out can make you a target.

That’s not a confidence problem.
That’s a culture problem.

If you watched it last night, I genuinely want to know your thoughts.

Did it sit fine with you?
Or did it make your stomach turn too?

Let’s have the conversation.

17/02/2026

I was extremely restrained in this reel.
Proud of myself, honestly.

Because what I wanted to say… and what I actually said… are two very different things.

My blood? Boiling.

We all know about the obvious scams. The fake texts. The dodgy investment schemes. The emails from a “prince.”

But no one talks enough about the ones promising:

“Organic growth.”
“Targeted followers.”
“Explosive engagement.”

Translation:
Vanity metrics that won’t pay your bills.

And the worst part?
Small business owners hand over their money because they’re trying to do the right thing. They’re trying to grow.

If your content isn’t getting engagement, buying more followers won’t fix it. If your messaging isn’t clear, automation won’t fix it. If your strategy is non existent, no growth service on the planet will save you.

Inflated numbers look cute on a screenshot.
They don’t convert.

Have you ever considered using one of these services?
Have you used one before?
Do you know someone who has?

Tell me your experience in the comments. I want to hear it. Let’s actually talk about this.

This man didn’t just promote a movie…he emotionally manipulated us first!

Months of wholesome art teacher content.
An engagement.
A wedding in Rome.

We’re all getting excited like we’re actually invited.

And then the last reel drops.
He’s been jilted. She’s left him.
Nothing since. Insert emotional damage.

Only thing is…none of this is real. Matt Taylor is none other than actor Kevin James who started an Instagram page for the character that he plays.

Honestly? Respect.
Marketing stunt of the year and yes, I’m fully invested now.

🎬 Solo Mio out in Australian cinemas 26 Feb.
And if anyone’s got a spare premiere ticket floating around… you know where to find me!! ❤️
