August Blog Review

It has been another great month for me and this blog. While I still am not quitting my day job and really haven’t made that much money, I am finally feeling like I could eventually. This Monthly review will show exactly what I mean. 

And my plans for the future are starting to expand. I had some very interesting conversations recently with some new friends that plan on helping me in the right direction. 

That is the beauty of just diving on in. While I didn’t know exactly what I needed to do about the financials of my blog I knew the general goal and was slowly starting to learn. I also knew I would learn more as I went.

So here we are, another month in and more information is coming at me and I am so excited with where this is going to go!!

So this monthly review we will talk again about some of the blog posts that I shared, the financials and stats for this blog, as well as things I am into this month. Including Podcasts, movies and everything else that I have going on!

Monthly Income Review and Blog Statistics vs last month:

Again, this month my income came from Google Adsense, however I still haven’t received a payout. Below is my monthly report for August. While I did have some growth I also had an issue with some of my ads displaying towards the end of the month, and it lasted into September, but I have resolved the issue, I hope.

Another source of income this month was AmbassadHer, where I get paid for social media posts and reviews of items. Now the below is a screenshot of the payments I received via PayPal, but this also includes the cost of the item that I had to purchase up front and show proof of purchase.

• Pinterest                         1422             +110

PODCASTS:

Podcasts have become a new favorite for me over the past year. However, this month I didn’t get to listen to as many as I would like mainly due to my husband driving my car and his not having Bluetooth. 

But I still got a good amount in and am looking forward to some more this month. Share with me some of your favorites!!

Unfortunately, we did not go to the movie theatre this month, but that did not stop us from watching some good ones at home. 

What’s happened in August with Me and this blog??

So August has marked the end of my second Trimester at Logan University for my Master’s in Nutrition and Human Performance. With final papers and exams due I didn’t write as many blog posts as I would have liked. 

However, I passed both classes with A’s so go me!! 

My next semester will be starting up soon after a very short break, but I am looking forward to it. 

As a family we also went on a few day trips here in Germany and have done some more exploring even in the city we are currently living in. I can say that I am very excited to share some of these with you soon. 

If you follow me on Instagram, you may have already seen some of the pictures. 

As for the blog, I have been trying to grow and share with more people. While I have not finished revamping the 28 Day Kick-Start program, I will continue to work on that to hopefully launch it soon. 

I have also started to unpack some of my crafting and shirt making supplies so you will soon (hopefully) see them up in my shop. 

Wrap it up

So that is what is going on here! I hope you all enjoyed and learned from the content put out this month! What was your favorite things that you saw from me?

What would you like to see more of?
