My love? Have u finished work yet?
Yes…
What have u been doing?!??!
I went to Coles… did another small groceries top up…
For the blog?
No. This one was like paper towels and floor cleaner. It’s more for the dog. He has his accidents and I mop them up…
Oh… can we continue ur cooking blog conversation?
Yes… sigh…
I thought u would be a content creator. Foodie influencer.
I don’t know babe… I don’t know if I want to build a following…
What happened to getting three camera tripods and special lighting for our kitchen for u to film everything?!
I can still do that but do I need to show my face?! Can’t it just be about the food?
U wanna just do ASMR cooking?
I don’t know… it can have soft background music… but… I don’t really see myself showing my face that much…
Why not?
Because you are famous enough for the both of us.
I just don’t want to aim for fame… I barely even want to aim for that much financial success!
I’ve been thinking that… I’m staying at my current job until I feel ready to start my own company.
And when I start my own company, it’s going to be a publishing business. I want to self-publish my food blog as cook books. Coffee table books.
But what if u built up a youtube channel by then?
That’s the thing… I’m not seeing it happening in that order…
I still think — you should set it up as a media company. Don’t just limit it to publishing.
Okay fine. I mean, I guess I’ll take my time to figure all that out.
While you and your bros plan your company, I will also plan mine.
So we’re aware of each other’s business ventures and ambitions but we’re not HOVERING OVER EACH OTHER or being micro-managey about it… do u get what I mean?
U don’t want me to micro-manage ur foodie media business?
NO!!!!
Babe that would take all the FUN out of it for me.
Ahhhhh… I see…
Let me do this for myself at my own pace.
Hmmm…
I might even go full time with my work next year…
What… 🫠🫠🫠
I’m starting to feel like… I think I will have the energy and mental clarity to take it on next year…
R u gonna be a manager at ur job?
I don’t think so… I see myself doing full time next year… when the opportunity arises… and that’s it…
Hmmm…
Do u think that’s a good idea?
I want u to do whatever u want to do. If u think it’s a good idea, I fully support u.
Thanks my love… I think… this second half of 2025 is showing me that I don’t want to work in cybersecurity…
Lol… 😏
I’m getting more clarity about what I want to do in 2026.
Okay 👍💕
I’ll support u! Whatever u wanna do!
I think us having our separate businesses is better…
Mmm… I wouldn’t have minded either way but if that’s what u want… I’m okay with it.
Cos you and your bros and older brother are gonna have your conversations about all of that… it’s your project.
And I can listen as a WIFE… whilst I have MY OWN stuff to worry about…
I know what ur saying…
So u don’t want an agent for ur cookbook? U don’t wanna try to get a contract with Penguin or Random House, or whatever other publishers?
No.
Why not?
Knowing what u know now, do u still want ur music under yet another label or do u wanna just have ur own label and create ur music with full control?
Oh… that’s how u feel about ur cook books?
Yes.
Okay then. I get it.
I’m not a celebrity chef. I’m not a foodie influencer. I just wanna write my recipes on my blog… in my own time, at my own pace…. how I’m gonna weave that with my Naturopathic background as well is gonna come in later…
I just know that I want to publish and promote it — my way.
I don’t wanna sign a contract for an overwhelming book tour.
I don’t wanna do author meet and greets if I don’t want to.
I want full control…
Yes… 😍 sounds like Heaven… for a creative…
Lol… yeah…… I’m not gonna be obligated to anybody else but myself and my assistant! I’ll keep it very small and cozy.
So… how much money are u expecting to make from ur books…?
I don’t know.
I’ll work that out later.
But I was thinking Australian market only for a print run.
International readers can download my eBook.
Oh? eBook?
Yeah.
I’m not trying to be a global foodie super star…
Awwww… I was really looking forward to us stepping out on a red carpet together!!!
Sigh… babe… I’m not about that life…
I know… 😏💕
I just want to share my recipes. And a small print run for Australians. Sell to Australian book wholesalers if they’ll buy it.
What if… it pops off?
Lol… we’ll cross that bridge when we get to it.
