Are you a blogger? Do you want to start a blog? Do you have a YouTube channel? An Etsy shop? Are you stuck? Overwhelmed? Confused? You’re in the right place!

My Story

When I started blogging in 2012, I had no idea what I was doing. I spent hundreds and hundreds of hours online teaching myself how to create a well-designed blog with compelling content. Later, in 2016, I also launched an Etsy shop and YouTube channel with big ideas and almost no information. It took months of research before I found my footing on either platform.

Fast forward to present day. Now, I run this blog, my YouTube channel, and sell on Etsy full-time. My blog, YouTube channel, and Etsy shop today are 100% self-built; I have never hired a designer, editor, or assistant of any kind. I have complete freedom in my schedule, I get to do what I love, and I’m making more money than I ever did working a traditional full-time job. It’s a dream come true.

I started this program to give other women the encouragement, information, resources, advice, and know-how that I wish I’d had when I started. (It would’ve saved me countless hours and several scary website crashes!) It is one of my greatest joys to support fellow women, who become my friends, and help them achieve their goals. As of September of 2018, I’ve worked with about 70 mentees!

What can my mentorship program help you with?

I want to help you reach your goals, whatever they are. I want to meet you where you are.

• I will help you start a blog, YouTube channel, or Etsy shop from scratch if you’ve always wanted to, but don’t know where to start.
• I will help you craft compelling content and monetize it, if that’s your goal.
• I will help you streamline and beautify your site design.
• I will help you find your unique voice; your tonality will attract people beyond what you can imagine.
• I will help you make your social media work for you to help further your platform.
• I will help you discover helpful, informative resources to assist you in your blogging, YouTube, or Etsy journey.
• I will never push you in a direction you don’t want to go. I will listen to your heart, ideas, and goals, and we’ll work together to create attainable steps to reach your personal goals.

I will give you the confidence, support, and information you need to reach your online goals. This program is designed to act like training wheels, not a crutch. My end goal is to teach, equip, and empower you so that you can manage your platforms on your own and reach your goals long-term.

What makes my mentorship program different is that it is completely customizable to you, your needs, and your goals. You choose what you want to focus on, how we spend our time together, what questions you want to ask, what topics you want to cover. I’ve worked with about 70 mentees and each one has had a totally individualized program. You are in the driver’s seat!

Testimonials

Here’s what past mentees are saying…

“Working with Blair gave me the confidence to finally take my blog to the next level. I had been passively working on my blog for about two years before starting Blair’s program, and had previously been so fearful of really taking the leap to actively pursue my dream of running a successful blog.

There’s an overwhelming amount of information and opinions out there about blogging and how to do it “right”, so much so that I was tempted to give up for fear of doing it wrong. But Blair helped me to see that every blog is different and unique, and together we sifted through and chose strategies that work for me and my niche.

I now feel that I am moving full steam ahead after years of waiting, and am so grateful to Blair’s program for helping me to find my “brave” and giving me the confidence that I needed.”

-Laura at justbeautifullyhonest.com

“I so appreciate Blair’s regular check-ins and willing availability! The mentee is really in the driver seat for this project. The Weekly Plans are so helpful for having tangible milestones throughout the process. Blair is passionately attentive to the needs and goals of each person; her patience, compassion, and self-taught knowledge base radiate through her generous and thoughtful support!”

-Taylor at charmcityspotlight.com

“This program allows a nervous newbie to become a confident creator. Blair has mastered the role of being a mentor, friend, critic, and support system all in one. I truly looked forward to each Skype session with her. She listened intently; writing notes down as I voiced all the jumbled thoughts in my head (which she was always able to make sense of). Her vast experience blogging / vlogging gives her a platform to provide the best advice and insight. Anytime I had a question that required some research on her end, she always took the time out of her day to find the best information for me and send it my way (For example, How to feature my Good Reads account to my blog in a simple “what am I reading” sidebar which I was having trouble with). Every Mentee of hers is different, and she does a great job of balancing the custom made guide for you to follow while allowing enough open space for you to venture as a new creator.”

-Kelly at hometowntwenties.com

“The mentorship was a big help in getting my blog running! I had the ideas, but I needed the accountability, the motivation, and the encouragement, which I received from the program. Blair was always a big help when I had design questions and issues. Her answers to questions were always extremely detailed and provided additional resources. The videos on her Facebook page were my favorite, and I know I will be using them a lot in the future.”

-Alana at thelifeofalana.com

“This program was incredibly helpful! I’ve followed Blair for awhile now and then noticed her page about the BMP. It didn’t take me long to decide to jump in and decide to combine my love of writing and reading blogs into creating my own blog. Blair really caters your experience to where you’re at in the process and continues to provide guidance and direction each month. She was super flexible with my busy schedule along the way. Don’t be fooled, blogging takes time and effort and isn’t an easy process. But Blair’s constant encouragement and support was just the motivation that I needed to get off on a strong start to the blogging journey. Not sure that I could have done it on my own in such a relatively short time period. Highly recommend!”

-Andrea at candidlyandrea.com

“BMP, was long overdue for me. I had communicated my desire to start it to Blair about a year before I actually did. And she was so patient with me, and encouraged me to start my blog. When I finally signed up, she helped me every step of the way. Blair isn’t just a mentor, she treats you like a friend! I highly recommend this service!”

-Alejandra at tashgal.com

“Blair’s BMP is outstanding. Whether you’ve got absolutely nothing (like I did) or a decade-old blog, Blair can provide you with tools to increase your traffic, encourage site revenue, and improve your visibility through social media. I started the program with just an idea and a little fear of putting money into a program and a site and three months later I have a blog that I am super proud of. People are constantly reaching out to me asking how I went from nothing to what I have overnight– the answer? Blair.”

-Laura at candidcondition.com

“When Blair says it’s not a cookie-cutter program, she means it! From my unique platform and layout to my crazy life transitions, Blair met me with constructive feedback and encouragement. I was hesitant to make investment, but the personalized game plans and plugging into community of other mentees was well worth it!”

-Alley at allisonpeplinski.com

“I dreamed of having a blog of my own for 4 years, but had no idea how to even begin. I knew that if I was going to commit to being a blogger, I wanted to do it right. When I learned about Blair’s mentorship program, I knew that this was exactly what I needed! Blair puts a lot of work into the program and is very flexible with Skype meetings and with helping you in any way that she can. I love her private Facebook group too! If you’re thinking about doing the 3-month program with Blair, do it!! You won’t be disappointed.”

-Maythe at somedayillbeontime.com

“I went back and forth trying to decide if I wanted to join the BMP for 8 months, and the only regret I have is waiting that long to decide! This program did more for my blog in 3 months than I could’ve learned to do myself in a year. My blog went from looking very basic and amateur to beautiful and professional as if I had been blogging for years. The first month in the BMP my traffic tripled, the second month my traffic doubled that of the first month, and it has been a steady increase ever since. I’ve also had 3 offers for sponsored posts. The success I gained from this program has made the money, time, and effort so worth it five times over! Blogging can get a little complicated, but Blair knows her stuff and is an open book to help you however you need it. Blair didn’t only help me with my vision for my blog but she saw my vision too. She is an absolute JOY to work with and unbelievably helpful! Joining the BMP has been the best thing that I’ve done for my blog.”

-Hannah at therookiewife.com

“I wanted to start a blog for some time but was always too scared to begin the process. It wasn’t until I started Blair’s Blogger Mentorship Program that my mind was put at ease. Blair was so attentive to my wants and needs and worked with me on a personal level in order to build my blog from the ground up! She not only guided me through the process of choosing a name and buying the domain for my blog, but she also helped me come up with content ideas and provided constant support and encouragement during the entire three month program! I would recommend Blair’s Blogger Mentorship Program to anyone who wants to start a blog. She makes the normally overwhelming process of starting a blog, seamless and positive!”

-Becca at thepersistentpineapple.com

“I highly recommend Blair’s Blogger Mentorship Program. It has been the best possible investment, both for my blogging career and for me personally. I gained more confidence throughout this process than I could have imagined. I entered this program almost computer illiterate, and now I’m confidently maneuvering my way around my beautiful website. Blair understood my vision for my blog even before I could properly articulate it myself, and helped me pin down my focus and goals. She quickly came to understand me and my learning style and tailored her instruction in ways that I easily grasped. She has to be the most patient person on the planet, and her encouragement and cheerleading rallied me when I felt overwhelmed. If you’re a blogger or a wanna-be blogger, you should invest in yourself and enroll in Blair’s program.”

-Kim at kimturnermcculley.com

“Blair is the perfect mentor for anyone who wants to take their blog to the next level. Blair spent hours on Skype and email helping me reach my blogging goals. She is the most motivational and heartwarming person and I always leave our conversations so happy and excited. Blair worked diligently on my monthly plan, answered all of my questions and gave me encouragement when I needed it. If you are looking to start a blog, take your blog up a notch or even get advice on how to make money or get more traffic, Blair is the person to get you there. It was a pleasure to work with her.”

-Jessica at roomforgelato.com

“I loved the BMP program so much! I’d recommend it to any and all fellow bloggers and aspiring bloggers, regardless of where they are on their blogging journeys. I didn’t even have a blog when I started the program, but within a month was able to create a beautiful, functional blog and get to work honing my blog post-writing skills with Blair’s help. The personalized monthly plans are packed with helpful information but not overwhelming, and Blair is always willing to listen and help if you get stuck in a rut. She’s patient, encouraging, helpful, and has a great sense of humor–you really couldn’t ask for a better mentor! The Facebook group is also filled with wonderful, encouraging people who I’ve been so fortunate to get to meet. The program was 100% worth the investment!”

“I stumbled across Blair’s blog one Sunday evening. I’d recently become an unemployed housewife. This particular day, I was wondering if I’d made the wrong decision. I was contemplating whether or not I should go back to work. I can’t remember what I googled but Blair’s blog post titled, “Why I Decided To Be A Stay-At-Home-Wife (With No Kids!)”, was returned. After reading through her post, I was immediately drawn to her. I thought to myself, “I like her!” Being the nosy woman I am, I spent quite some time looking around on her website. As the saying goes, when you look for something, you definitely find it! That day has proven to me that God really does direct our steps. He directed me right to Blair’s BMP. I reached out to Blair and she responded immediately – I loved that! Needless to say, she continued to respond quickly throughout the three months. When she says, “I’m here to help you. Whatever you need.” She’s telling the TRUTH! She’s very hands on. She’s very knowledgeable. She’s caring. She’s very encouraging. She’s literally at your disposal. I went from nothing – NO THING – and within weeks you would’ve thought I knew what I was doing. Ha! Don’t be fooled, I still don’t know. :=} If you’re considering this program, do it! I must warn you, it requires work. You’ll get out what you put in. Blair is not going to do the work for you. She’ll guide you. Hold your hand. Whatever you need but you must definitely have some skin in the game too!! I’m sad the three months are over. It went by way to fast! Final Words: Just do it!”

-Tiffany at teawithtiffanyp.com

“I can’t say enough good things about Blair’s Blogger Mentorship Program! Right from the start she provides you with everything that you need – information, resources, support and Skype sessions. If ever you have a question, she’s always so quick to respond with such knowledgeable and insightful answers. My three months with Blair flew by and I learned so much. I really feel that I now have all the resources I need to move forward and continue to grow my blog. I highly recommend this program for anyone that wants to take their blog to the next level.”

-Julia at pbandjulia.com

“Before I started the BMP I thought of myself as just a ‘hobby blogger’ – not really a proper player in the blogging world, unworthy of notice. Blair’s encouragement took me to a place where I felt like a ‘legitimate’ blogger and I’m now proud to call myself a blogger and share my work. The easy, non-overwhelming blogging and social media schedule helped me get on top of posting without feeling overwhelmed. The challenges Blair set me helped me grow as a blogger without inducing too much anxiety. And the blogger mentee facebook group is a beautiful space – not just for sharing in a safe way, but for genuine non-icky networking which ultimately drove more attention and traffic to my blog. If you’re new to blogging or lacking direction I wholeheartedly recommend Blair’s program to help you focus, build traffic and flourish as a blogger.”

-Kamina at ninakardia.com

“There is not another program for bloggers like this out there. Blair is one of the most inspiring individuals I’ve met, and she truly cares for all of her mentees. Blair’s advice, outlines, step-by-step guidance, and responsiveness are invaluable, and the support Facebook group and Skype calls make it fun! Signing up for this program is the perfect way to gain the inspiration and practical advice that you need to build the best blog you can. She has made blogging fun for me again!”

-Emily at emilyabernathy.com

“Blair’s mentorship program was the perfect first step to starting my own website and blog. I was overwhelmed when I started doing the research on my own, but starting her program allowed me to streamline the process and take logical steps towards creating my content and sharing it with others. She is full of knowledge and will go above and beyond to do research and share resources with you to help you be successful. She is positive and encouraging, and will always be understanding of your situation and time. I highly recommend this program to anyone who wants to start a blog or learn how they can make their current blog more successful.”

-Sara at flowersandleatherevents.com

“I’m so glad I started the BMP while I was just beginning to build my blog. Blair is such an authentic, knowledgeable, warm-hearted, patient, and encouraging woman. She will make an effort to get to know you and your blog, where you are with it, and where you want to go. It’s especially clear how much time and research she puts into her personalized plans! She will give you the attention and tools you need to develop a successful blog. When you finish this program, you will leave with a newfound confidence and a wonderful community of support that is simply priceless.”

-Amanda at sweetteaepiphany.com

“When I started the BMP, I was not necessarily in a great place emotionally. I was burnt out, uninspired, and not really feeling creative or inspired in many areas of my life. But I found solace and peace in writing and sharing that writing with others. Blair met me in the blogging world and helped me find a medium to create again. She was so encouraging and inspiring, reminding me that I did have a valuable voice and something worth saying. I am so thankful for her kind wisdom and her thoughtful responses as well as the wonderful community I have formed through this program!”

-Amanda at amandabixler.com

“I had been working on my blog for several months before discovering Blair’s mentorship program, and boy am I glad I made the decision to participate in this 3 month adventure. If you are even remotely considering blogging or taking your current blog to a more serious level, trust me – you need to do this program. Blair equips you with knowledge, tools, and self confidence that are truly worth more than anything you could purchase for your blog. Blair is a patient soul who finds happiness in your success – that was very obvious as early as our first Skype meeting. I could go on and on but I’ll leave you with this – take the leap! Take your blog to the next level with Blair.”

-Emma at sweetteatactics.com

“Blair’s BMP has given me the tools and confidence to pursue blogging and small business as a viable future income. My time spent with Blair has been so encouraging and she has supported me throughout the program, answering all my questions, guiding me through the how’s and why’s and being my own personal cheerleader in both victories and challenges. The BMP really is set up to help you not only succeed in the short term but to set you up with habits and routines for long term success. I have thoroughly enjoyed my skype sessions, email conversations and social media chats with Blair. She is positive, understanding and realistic when it comes to blogging, small business and real life.”

-Tameeka at aliceandmeeka.wordpress.com

“Working with Blair was exactly the push I needed to take my blog to the next level. Her professionalism, knowledge, and encouragement are unparalleled and I truly felt like no question or project was too big or small for Blair’s insight and advice.  I’m so happy with the experience and results from this program and would recommend Blair to anyone who’s looking to take her blog to the next level!”

-Grady at gradybirdblog.com

“I had thought about starting a blog for years, but every time I tried, I got overwhelmed by all the information that’s out there. Blair made it simple, providing me with the knowledge, resources, and most importantly, the courage to create a gorgeous website and start posting content that people actually want to read. If you’re thinking about taking the plunge with Blair, do it! She’ll meet you wherever you’re at, using your personal blogging goals to create weekly schedules that are both realistic and effective. More than that, she will be your biggest cheerleader and the one telling you to keep going, you can do this, which is invaluable to hear when you reach those inevitable writer’s ruts. I am so grateful for Blair’s guidance and encouragement, as well as for the community that I’ve met through her. Don’t blog alone!”

-Kelly at kellyberlin.com

“This mentorship program has taken my hobby-blog to a more professional level! Blair is very organized in her approach to coaching, suggestions, and realistic steps that need to be taken to get your blog where you want it to be. She takes the time to write out weekly plans, researches groups and information specifically for your niche, and is always available to answer questions or point you to someone who can help. I have learned so much about professional blogging from Blair and have already told others about her program. I think I got much more than I paid for.”

-Nicki at nickitruesdell.com

“This program was so amazing for me as I started building my blog from scratch! Not only did it give me the guidance and motivation I needed to stay on track, but also the encouragement to keep going even when I was stuck and didn’t know what to do next. Thank you, Blair!!”

-Emily at sarahemily.wordpress.com

“If you are considering purchasing the Blogger Mentorship Program, I highly recommend taking the leap. You won’t regret it. Blair was amazing! She offered a step-by-step, personalized plan that really helped simplify the daunting task of starting a blog. She broke things down into easy to digest steps, and her kind words and encouragement gave me the boost I needed to launch a new site while working full time. I couldn’t recommend this enough.”

-Samantha at samanthamichelleosborne.com

“I was very nervous to do this mentorship program because I knew that my life was very chaotic and I may not be able to give it my everything. I ended up finding out I was pregnant with my first child, moving 3 times, and struggling with difficult health issues during my mentorship. Because of all of this, I was not able to take full advantage of everything the program offered. Throughout the entire process, Blair was so encouraging and understanding. She never made me feel like I was failing or wasting her time. She celebrated small successes with me and remained helpful and supportive. I am completely sure that, once my life quiets down, I will be able to make huge progress with my blog because of all of the resources and help that Blair provided me with. Going through this program you can definitely tell that Blair is passionate about what she does and truly wants to help her mentees succeed!”

-Julia at desertsthatbloom.blogspot.ca

“When I started blogging I scoured the internet for someone to help me, and four years later I finally found Blair and the help I needed. Today there are so many variables in blogging and it is overwhelming. In three month of Blair’s mentorship her knowledge and guidance helped me to understand what I needed to do to improve my blog. I now feel I have the trusted resources to find affiliates, tackle social media and blog designers.”

-Jeré at onehotoven.com

“Blair was my KEY cheerleader throughout my blogger mentorship program. I can’t think of a better coach to teach me the ways of this inclusive community!! It was a true honor and joy to work with Blair and be shown how my goals could be translated into my monthly plans. She made me feel like a million bucks whenever I accomplished major or minor tasks. I needed that support as I felt like I was beginning something scary!! You have the chance to learn about some pretty stellar tricks of the trade if you are like me and didn’t have a whole lot of experience in blogging and what resources are key. Blair is a lovely young woman whom I have become very fond of and admired from a distance. She knows blogging and has done her research. She won’t leave you high and dry wondering what in the world you do next with this “blogging thing.” Her resources are endless, and her support is incredible. I loved working with her!!”

-Jan at daringdame.me

“If you are thinking about staring a blog, Blair is the person you want to work with! I was gifted her Mentorship Program as a Christmas gift from my boyfriend and it has been my favorite gift. Blair not only walked me though the process, she gave me so many resources and was a huge supporter throughout it all! I seriously would not have made my blog without her. I would recommend anyone who wants to blog to join her Blogger Mentorship Program.”
