Hey everyone!
I'm Julia, a social media manager and content creator. Entering 2026, I’m heading into my 3rd year freelancing full-time!
A few things about me you probably won't find on my portfolio:
- I'm based in Vancouver, BC and last year I learned how to ski
- I'm currently trying to learn how to do latte art (think abstract foam lol)
- I started a social media for my dog and I am determined to turn her into an influencer (someone needs to pay for training)
- I looove to cook!
What I love most about freelancing is how it constantly challenges me and reminds me that with focus and curiosity you really can do anything you set your mind to!
Excited to see what projects are in store this year 🥳
Ahh do it!! It feels like a Canadian right of passage lol It was definitely nerve-racking BUT I would highly encourage you take a lesson, it was so helpful and made a huge difference!
Hi Julia, love this! Latte art and dog influencer ambitions are excellent side quests. Freelancing definitely keeps you on your toes, wishing you a great 2026 full of fun projects!

All from one line I wrote straight from the heart.
"The miracles you're looking for are in the work you're avoiding."
I wrote it because that's genuinely how I felt. No strategy. No expectations. Just something I believed in.
I never imagined it would resonate with so many people, let alone become one of the most talked-about lines on my profile.
And now, looking at these numbers, the line hits differently. Sometimes, the sign you're waiting for is the work you've been putting off. Maybe the miracle really is on the other side of doing it. 🖤
I hit $10K in earnings a few days ago and received so many messages asking what I did differently.
honestly, the only thing that really helped me was stopping the overthinking.I stopped thinking about all the possibilities. Stopped thinking about when it would happen. Stopped...
Congratulations, Anky! It’s encouraging to see your hard work paying off. I just joined Contra and I’m still figuring things out, so seeing posts like this gives me a little extra motivation. Hopefully, I’ll have my own milestone to share here someday!
For the next 30 days, I'll be sharing practical ideas on how businesses can use social media more intentionally.
I'm focusing on four industries I work with:
🏡 Real Estate
✨ Beauty & Aesthetics
🏗️ Construction
🛋️ Interior Design
Why these industries?
Because people often need more than attractive visuals before they trust a business. They need helpful content, clear communication, and a reason to connect.
I'll be sharing content ideas, strategy tips, common mistakes, and ways to build visibility, engagement, and trust.
My goal is simple: to show that effective social media management is about more than posting. It's about having a purpose behind every post.
If you run a business in any of these industries, what is your biggest social media challenge right now? 👇
