5 years of plant influencing: burnout and boundaries 🔥

i've been doing these plant #influencer #repot and chats often lately, partly because the topic fascinates me but also because it feels so under-discussed in the plant community. in this video, I tried to answer your questions as honestly as I could without stirring the pot too much. i touch on everything from making money as a plantfluencer, to navigating authenticity online, to messier issues like plant poaching, hoarding, and... maybe a bit of the drama I’ve found myself in. 😅 whether you’ve been here a while or are just curious about what goes on behind the scenes, i hope this gives some insight and clarifies some things!
