0Waifu Mia: How the Online Star Overcame Depression to Become a Star
The journey to becoming a social media influencer in this cut-throat world is a tough one. And for someone who hails from a small town in Canada and has no background or help in this, it certainly was more of a challenge than what E-girl Waifu Mia hoped to tackle.
In this age, when people are more stressed than ever, choosing a career as a social media influencer over the safe career choice of being a trained nurse made life a bit more difficult for young influencer Waifu Mia. Even though she was good academically, she always aspired to get something more out of life. To go out of one’s comfort zone and be successful is an inspiring story.
Today Waifu Mia is a successful social media influencer with a growing fanbase of loyal followers. Nearing 2 million followers on Instagram and 400K followers on Twitter now, she hopes to inspire young girls from ordinary backgrounds to think out-of-the-box and believe they could achieve anything. It is the legacy that she wants to build.
Doing silly faces or creating those trending dances on TikTok opened an outlet for Waifu Mia to express herself. What she has achieved today is unbelievable. She has gotten over 250 million views on TikTok for her content. But this was not something that just happened with ease.
When trying to create content every day and struggling to stay relevant on social media, Waifu Mia had days of self-doubt, and the constant negativity from her peers did not help her either. Boys would constantly pick on Mia and tease her.
Being bullied in high school and then facing these negative comments that “you cannot make it as an online star” or “stop trying to be an influencer, you are a failure” made it difficult to navigate through the day at some times. It affected Waifu Mia so much that she suffered from depression and started believing in the hate she was receiving. Everything that was happening around her took a toll on her mental health.
But she also hoped to overcome this and make this work. She decided to get better, remove all those negative voices in her life and focus on creating the best content possible. She always believed in her dreams, and that kept her going. Taking risks, building up a personal brand, and becoming the biggest E-girl are just some of the dreams she is working on.
Now she is doing much better chasing her dreams and is on her way to achieving everything she had hoped!
