In this vlog, I’m taking you with me while I balance my college life (classes, study sessions, and my usual “romanticize student life” routine) with running my print-on-demand shop during the Christmas season. It’s honestly that time of the year where everything feels extra busy—finals energy + holiday rush—so I wanted to show what my days look like when I’m trying to stay productive without burning out. Think: study blocks, planning, and squeezing in little pockets of work for my shop in between. I also share why I use Printify for print-on-demand, especially when orders start picking up. I like that I can focus on designs + listings while Printify helps handle the production side, which is so helpful when I’m also chasing deadlines at school. If you’re a student who wants a side hustle but still wants your study life to feel calm and aesthetic, this video is basically my reminder that you can do both—just with a lot of planning, realistic expectations, and a little 5am motivation when needed.
