I think you're kind of seeing the real me as far as seeing what I post on social media, because I am very much into cooking, and my dogs, and obviously my son, and my lifestyle in Santa Cruz is very laid-back.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
I've learned that social media and our private lives, you know, our private lives are not so private anymore, so it takes a little bit of getting used to.
The social-media landscape changes incredibly fast, so you have to be open-minded and nimble to keep up with it.
I used to share my everyday life on the first social media platforms, and I had a pretty big following.
Despite my high profile on social media, I'm a private person.
Someone's got to be interested in how I feel, just because I'm here and I'm real.
Without social networks, you're not the coolest thing on the Christmas list, and you're not getting any bite.
I watch people, friends of mine, and see how they portray themselves online and I find interesting that it's kind of a hyper-real version of yourself, how you'd like to be seen, in a way.
I've got a different life. I live up on a farm; I don't have anything to do with social media.
The image of myself that I give on social media isn't actually who I am; it's not 100 percent me, obviously.
Everyone is living for everyone else now. They're doing stuff so they can tell other people about it. I don't get all that social media stuff, I've always got other things I want to do - odd jobs around the house. No one wants to hear about that.
