In the beginning of 2019, my IG page @TheBirdsPapaya had about 150,000 followers. Amazing, to say the least after 6 years on the platform. But in 2019 my way of creating changed, and the page grew rapidly...an additional 600,000 followers to be exact. I stand by the belief that everyone should have an opportunity to grow, so in an effort to disclose some of the biggest learnings and what I believe may have nudged things in the right direction without any gross or fake online behaviour, this podcast episode was born. If you’re not looking to grow a social media page, this may be just a great insight into the world of social media, the cogs of how it works, and the human behaviour in which connects it all. Hope this is an episode that may just change the way you think and create!!

0:00.0 | The following podcast is a deer media production. |
0:06.0 | Hi friends and welcome to the papaya podcast. I'm your hostess, |
0:11.0 | Trine Hermosta, Sarah Nicole, and each week I'm going to be dishing out some sweetness mixed |
0:16.4 | in with some seeds of wisdom or something like that. So get ready to get inspired, |
0:22.4 | get candid, get real because we are all in this digital space together. |
0:30.0 | It has been a minute since I have done a solo podcast, just a moment to kind of connect back. |
0:37.4 | And I really I really knew that I wanted to do it kind of at the end of the year, |
0:41.7 | at the end of wrapping up 2019 and all that has happened. So to give you a bit of a recap |
0:48.6 | of all that has happened, I actually started the year fresh out of quitting my career job |
0:55.7 | and stepping into doing the births of papaya full time. So the births of papaya being my |
1:00.3 | Instagram account, my blog, speaking engagements and whatnot as well. So all a lot of new stuff, |
1:06.4 | a lot going on and I was basically thrust into this entirely new career space where I was |
1:14.0 | navigating it with a lot of fear and a lot of imposter syndrome. And all the while I had a |
1:19.0 | steady amount of followers when I quit my job, I had about 80,000 followers and by the end of |
1:24.4 | the first month, I had 100,000 and I think I was around 150,000 in the start of 2019. So that's |
1:31.1 | where it began just to give you a snapshot of where we are at the present moment that I'm recording |
1:35.9 | this. I have 770,000 followers. So this has been a year and I say that with so much gratitude, |
1:44.0 | I don't want to come off like I'm bragging even though I am incredibly proud of what has happened. |
1:50.3 | And I really wanted to talk about it. I wanted to talk about this growth and how I think it happened, |
1:56.6 | why I think it's been so important that it happened now. And some of the things that hopefully you |
2:02.7 | can take away and start applying to yours as well if you're somebody with social media or want to |
2:06.8 | grow or just how you consume social media if you're on it. I think most of us are and hopefully you |
