FTC Social Media Guidelines

Be sure to disclose affiliate links, free products, brand ambassadorships, appearances, and collaborations

Ads

These appear in my blog sidebar, header and footer and in posts on my site. These are images that clearly look like advertisements.

Our Affiliates include or have included: Insta360, Pepperjam and Rakuten.

Comments

The comments section on my blog is a place to support, empower and encourage. I love reading every comment and considering your opinions and ideas. But, I ask that we are kind and respectful to each other. And I do reserve the right to remove comments that don’t fit into this space.
