Meet Anna Cockayne of Life with Anna C – our Featured Influencer this week!
Tell Us Your Blogging Story
I’ve been blogging since mid-2013 and have loved it ever since. I have moved from 2 previous blogs to finally settling with branding my name. I had decided that the “cutesy” blogger names, just were not my thing and decided to OWN who I was and Ta-Da, in the fall of 2015, Life with Anna C. was born.
On my website, you will find a variety of topics that primarily center around Parenting Teens, Finances & Budgeting, Crafting, DIY, Food & Drink, Farmhouse Decorating, and I also focus on living your best life with a Mental Illness.
I also have 4 other websites that are in the works right now so that I can branch off and really niche down and focus much more than being all over the place.
Why I Blog
Originally, blogging started out as a sort of a hobby to make a little bit of income on the side. When I started I was working from home for a customer service company and I wanted to earn a little bit more by helping people. While my blog hasn’t grown much over the years, it has grown so much that I was able to pay off 3 credit cards, put money in the bank to start looking for a home. So I would say that blogging changed my life financially, emotionally, and mentally.
