10 TV Throwbacks Worth Re-Watching!

Hey guys! Lately, I’ve been super into re-watching older shows and I’ve come across some really great gems that people may or may not have forgotten about that you should try watching!

Glee

Glee was a show I thoroughly enjoyed watching in high school. From its corky characters to its over-the-top musical numbers I was hooked. Being a theatre kid myself I really related to a lot of struggles the characters faced on the show and watching the show now, as an adult it’s just as enjoyable as ever. Watching the high schoolers navigate high school their way through school while enjoying singing in the Glee club still holds my attention and gets me dancing in my seat. I would highly recommend watching or re-watching this series.

Make it or Break it

ABC Family was known for its teen dramas and upheld that reputation with shows such as Pretty Little Liars, The Fosters, The Lying Game, and more! But one of its lesser-known dramas was Make it or Break it, a show that revolved around elite gymnasts trying to get to the Olympics. This show was one of my favorites, while it was airing I patiently waited week after week to see new episodes. Watching now I still feel on the edge of my seat as the gymnasts perform their routines, risk falling and seeing who gets cut! This show was underrated but definitely deserves a watch!

Full House

One of the biggest sitcoms of the ’90s, the touching show about a widowed father raising his three daughters with the help of his brother-in-law and best friend. I watched this shows reruns religiously growing up, the show had already ended by the time I was old enough to watch. Although I wasn’t able to watch and wait for new episodes I still was a giddy child watching episode after episode before binge culture was a thing. The show still warms my heart and teaches life lessons through each episode. Watching as an adult I’ve experienced some real tear-jerker moments that I missed as a child. This show is a true gem and is an all-around great watch!

Gossip Girl

The one and only source into the scandalous lives of Manhattan’s elite. Gossip girl is without a doubt a must-watch drama filled with gossip and the most lavish parties in all of New York. When re-watching this series I realized I had forgotten a lot of drama that went down in the show and found myself curious, watching episode after episode to see what happened! If you haven’t seen this show in a while you may be surprised just how little you remember. You know you love me, XOXO, Gossip Girl.

Gilmore Girls

This heartwarming show, about a mother, daughter relationship like no other. Watching Rory grow up from a naïve high schooler to a Yale graduate is so relatable and nostalgic to watch. Lorelai and Rory’s quick-witted sense of humor and love for coffee makes for the perfect binge-worthy tv show. This show is relatable for almost any young girl from high school to girls navigating young adulthood. There really is something for everyone in this must-watch show!

The Nanny

I’m sure you all know the most memorable voice on earth, Fran Drescher as Nanny Fine! As a teenager, I loved watching her and Mr. Shetfield flirt until they finally got together! I initially thought the show would be cringy to watch as an adult but I find myself laughing and catching some new grown-up jokes that had gone over my head the first time around. This show is the furthest thing from cringe, check it out for yourself!

Zoey 101

Let’s just start off by saying that PCA is my dream school! I am so jealous that I didn’t get to go there when I was in school. Zoey and her friends have the best time together and the nicest dorms that I’ve ever seen! Watching this show the second time around brings back so many memories from when I was younger and watched the show when it aired. I specifically remember being in middle school and freaking out when I saw Zoey come back from boarding school for Chase! The show is youthful and takes me back, as I’m sure it will when you watch!

iCarly

The show that is 10x more hilarious than I remember! iCarly has made me laugh more than any other show in a while! I’m not sure why I wasn’t a bigger fan of this show growing up. Not only is their web show awesome, but the entire show is full of jokes, great humor, and relatable yet eccentric characters! If you need an uplifting lighthearted show that is guaranteed to make you laugh give iCarly a second watch!

Degrassi

One of my all-time favorites shows both then and now. I cannot get enough of Degrassi, their in-depth storylines, thorough character development, and daily dose of drama. Degrassi is an extremely well-written drama that mainly appeals to teens and young adults. It touches upon many serious high school issues and addresses real-life scenarios. This show has seasons upon seasons but I think the earlier seasons are the best! Let me know if you think the same!

1.FRIENDS

What kind of list would this be without my favorite show of all time? FRIENDS is a show that I discovered as a teen and have been watching religiously ever since. To say I’ve seen every episode is an understatement. I can quote this show in my sleep and somehow every time I watch the series it gets better and better. If you haven’t seen FRIENDS I would 100/10 recommend you run, don’t walk to the nearest TV and watch it immediately!

These are all my favorite throwback shows at the moment and I would recommend you check out every single one if you’re looking for a new show to binge!

Starting My Own Business!

About a year ago I decided to begin my own company, BeBranded Agency, a full-service digital marketing company. Marketing was always something I had a knack for, particularly social media marketing. I was working for a marketing agency when the COVID-19 pandemic struck. I was indefinitely furloughed and eventually laid off. I knew this was my opportunity to start something big! I began brainstorming and came up with BeBranded Agency. I worked hard to make sure everything was perfect from the web design to social media making sure everything was perfectly branded. Six months later everything was set to launch. Once we launched we gained our first few clients and I knew right away that this company was going to be a huge success.

After months of building my brand and growing my company, I decided to expand my business by offering another area of expertise, an Influencer program. This program is designed to help aspiring influencers thrive, create their own brand, and work with their favorite brands. This program is still being developed and will soon offer various different services. Right now BeBranded Influencer 101 offers one on one consulting with @Jackie.Noelle. Soon this program will have courses, masterclasses, and more to offer up-and-coming influencers!

My ambitions for both BeBranded Agency and BeBranded Influencer 101 are high and I know hard work, determination and consistency will help to bring my dreams to fruition. If you’re contemplating starting your own small business here are a few steps to follow:

Brainstorm what you’re good at, your interests and your past experience
Find a field that is in demand that you have knowledge in
Being to create a business plan
Strategize names and business operations
Begin to build your company

These are just a few of the early steps I followed when starting BeBranded Agency. Whether you are trying to start a service or product-based company these simple steps are essential in developing a new venture.

Methods I Use To Reduce Anxiety

As a mental health advocate and someone who struggles with debilitating anxiety, I find that coping mechanisms are super important. I have many different methods I use when dealing with anxiety and panic attacks. These are methods I swear by and would highly recommend to anyone who is struggling with any kind of anxiety or stress!

1.Meditation

I find that meditating calms my nerves while allowing me to be more in the moment and stop worrying about circumstances beyond my control. When I meditate I am able to focus on my breathing and allow my mind to let go of negative thoughts. There are tons of different types of mediation one can practice but my favorite are guided meditations. I like to have a clear vision during my meditation and feel I get the best results with a guide.

2. Healing Crystals

Healing crystals are something that I firmly believe in and use every day. I start each morning putting my crystals out on my window sill. I allow them to soak up the positive energy from the sun and if at any point during the day I feel anxious or stressed I hold them and allow the positive energy to transfer from the stones to my body. Through this practice, I am able to rid myself of my anxiety and move forward with my day in a positive light.

3. Physical Activity

Getting physical when having anxiety is a huge stress reliever. I find going for a walk around the block allows me to take in the nature around me and connect to the earth while omitting any negative energy. I also feel that expressing myself through dancing, stretching, or working out at the gym help to get out any aggression and relieve any tension I feel.

4. Singing

One of my biggest passions is singing. Through singing, I feel I am able to embody a character and let any anxiety I feel slip away. Whether I’m singing a happy song or a sad song I’m still able to rid myself of anxiety and become consumed by my music.

5. Scents

I am a huge lover of aromatherapy. I believe the scents we take in can affect our mood and feelings. Essential Oils and Candles are some of my favorite things to utilize when I feel anxious. Specifically using lavender or eucalyptus scents can majorly reduce anxiety, I am also a big fan of the stress releif scent from Bath and Body Works!

6. My Emotional Support Animal

Beni, my dog, offers me massive amounts of support and stress relief in times when I am experiencing debilitating anxiety. He has been trained as an emotional support animal to stay calm and allow me to receive the support I need. Having him in my life is the ultimate source of support and my all-time favorite anxiety reducer.

These are just a few of my many tips to reduce anxiety and panic attacks. There are plenty of additional ways to relieve stress that I implore everyone to explore and find what works best for them! I hope to inspire others to find methods of anxiety relief that work for them

My Influencer Journey

It All Started With A Mouse

All my life I have been the biggest Disney fan I know! From watching their movies growing up, dressing as princesses for Halloween, and of course visiting the theme parks. As I grew older I began to visit Walt Disney World much more frequently and with that came tons of photos! I began posting them on my personal Instagram page but I noticed the more Disney photos I posted, the less engagement I was getting. In an attempt to share my Disney photos while not annoying my friends with an overwhelming amount of Disney posts, I created an Instagram account specifically to post Disney pictures. Captain Jackie Sparrow. Within 3 months I had grown this account to over 3,000 followers and 5,000 within my first year.

I loved sharing all my Disney content and having a place to connect with others who shared my love for Disney. Each trip I would generate tons of photos to keep my account content fresh until the next trip. This was a great system and a great way for me to utilize social media to help me share my love for Disney.

However, once the COIVD-19 virus hit and Walt Disney World shut down indefinitely I was left with little to no content to post. I didn’t want to lose the large following I had built up so I had to brainstorm and find a way to create content without being in Disney. I began to post stories and occasional grid posts of my everyday life. These posts began to attract a new audience while still captivating my current followers.

After much time and consideration, I had to make a decision and completely switch over to a lifestyle account in order to continue to grow. After making this switch I was able to grow my account to over 10,000 within six months.

While I love sharing photos and stories of my life I felt I wanted to share more! I then came up with a plan to create a Youtube Vlog where I could document my life through videos. Here I was able to give my audience a more in-depth look into my life and allowed me to share a more personal connection with my followers.

I am now taking my content another step forward by creating my website and blog so I can have a base for all my content creation. Sharing my life through my content is something that I am truly passionate about and I hope I can inspire others to take action and create that Instagram account, or blog, or Youtube channel that they’re scared won’t take off. You can achieve anything you set your mind to and I hope to inspire others to do just that!

Why Branding For Influencers Is Essential

In today’s day and age, influencer marketing is becoming much more prevalent. Due to the increase in demand, it is important to stand out as an influencer. Branding is something that is essential for anyone hoping to become a successful influencer.

Branding helps establish what you want to convey to your audience. Your brand represents you and what you want to showcase through your social media platform(s). Having a cohesive brand helps you to stand out to brands when negotiating brand deals, stand out to potential followers when they come across your profile, and assure your followers are truly interested in your content. Branding is often overlooked, however, it is extremely important to consider your brand to take your content to the next level.

Steps to create a consistent brand:

Determine who your target audience is – once you do this you will be able to create a brand that appeals to your ideal demographic.
Once you find who you want to appeal you, you should then think about what kind of content you want to create for your audience. You want to be sure that the content you post will captivate the audience you aspire to have. Creating a Pinterest board or some form of an idealist would be most helpful.
Next, you should think about why you want to be an influencer. Why do you want to appeal to this audience and create this content. Having a why is important because it defines your brand. Your why should fuel you to create. Your why will also allow others to connect with you and want to follow and engage with you and your content.
Once you have your who, what, and why we can move on to the visual aspects of branding such as a color scheme. It is important to determine which colors you would like to associate with your brand. This is to create a look and feel that will be prevalent throughout your content.
In addition to a color scheme, you also want to consider which fonts you use. If creating content that utilizes fonts you want to be sure that your font scheme represents you and your brand. If you are going for a whimsical vibe you will want to use light and airy scripts as where someone creating a fitness vibe may want to use a more bold and stern font. Fonts may seem obsolete but are something to consider when creating a brand.
To really go above and beyond you may want to create a logo that encompasses all the above steps and shows off who you are and what you represent.

These steps are only the beginning of creating your brand. From here you can go on to create a website that further encompasses your brand as opposed to strictly using social media. You can also expand to multiple social media platforms, in which your brand should be consistent among all those platforms you are using.

Branding is a time-consuming and extensive process but is definitely worth the time and effort. Having superb branding is something that will truly propel you forward in the influencer world. If branding is something you struggle with you can also consult with a branding expert for advice. If you are looking for advice or help with your branding be sure to head over to BeBranded for more information on how to get your branding process started.
