2022’s Top Creatives to Watch Now: Elizabeth Weber
@ewebzz
What would you title this chapter in your life?
I dont know if I have an exact name for it yet but I really have done a self reflection deep dive over the past few months to really get in touch with the person I want to be and to make sure I inspire people to become their best self as well. I had to re-evaluate the type of content that I was posting because social media can be so misleading of one’s life and passions because we are so influenced by what other people are doing. I also started a new job with Veritas, a creative agency based out of Canada and have been working remotely for almost 2months now as an influencer and social media strategist on several large brands.
What inspires you and your career?
I have a great support system around me that always pushes me to reach the goals that I set for myself and helps me stay accountable with my values, my physical and mental health, and my attitude. I think if you want to set yourself up for greatness you need to surround yourself with great people.
What’s the biggest challenge you come across as an influencer?
To really hold myself accountable and think about my intentions vs. impact on the types of things I post. Social media is one of the leading causes of mental health and I would never want to be someone who contributes to anyone’s mental health struggles. You have to really think “Will this post inspire someone” or “Will this post present a false sense of reality that could negatively impact someone.”
In what ways do you wish to inspire people through your platform?
I like to post things that I love and always include my hobbies and people I care about. I’ve really tried to make a push of posting things that aren’t just myself.
What’s at the top of your bucket list for 2022?
I’m sticking with the same thing I’ve had at the top for the last 3 years and that’s to travel, but especially I’m dying to go to Italy or Greece!
What’s a trend that never goes out of style in your life?
Standing up for what you believe in. Even if it’s a hard thing to do.
Three beauty products you cannot live without?
-Kevin Aucion Eyebrow Marker
-Blow Dry Bar Hairdryer
-All the Cardon facial products (funny because it’s a men’s targeted brand).
What’s a typical work day like for you?
This ones scary. I work 7:30am-4pm at my corporate job, then I try to get a workout in, ending the day with cooking dinner (and trying not to order in) all while getting my 2 pups out frequently during the day. I also shoot all my content on the weekends now or I request a day off if I book a shoot or need to travel.
What advice do you have for someone who aspires to have a career like your own?
Make sure you really know who you are and what you stand for and value. I think so many people are unhappy in this industry because they get lost and forget who they are trying to please everyone else.
Are you working on any exciting projects you can share?
Yes!! I’ve started volunteering with ISWMP as a dog rescue transportation driver. Since I’m no longer able to foster since I adopted my last foster haha! It’s very hard to see the dogs in such rough shape but also so rewarding to know that I’m doing something that makes a difference.
What would you like to say to your fans?
Thank you so much for all the support. It does not go unnoticed and no one ever got to where they are without help from other people.
