As a female blogger myself, I love discovering other creative entrepreneurs. So in 2017, I interviewed my first female blogger. Aileen, best known to her fans as Lavendaire, is a YouTube content creator, blogger, podcaster, and female entrepreneur.
Over the years, Aileen has used her platform to grow a powerful online community. To help inspire others to achieve their dream life.
To become the best version of themselves. If you would like to learn more about Lavendaire, read my exclusive interview below.

Exclusive Female Blogger Q &A
1. How did the name “Lavendaire” come about?
I chose Lavendaire to represent the words light, airy, and uplifting – not only do I adore my purple hair, but I like the color lavender because it’s ideal for how I want my brand to appear.
The fact that it’s a flower added to the dreamy and feminine vibe I wanted. I purposefully included the “aire” part at the end to make it sound more French.
2. Do you consider yourself a millennial, and if so, how do you define being a millennial in today’s society?
Yes – for me, it’s just a label for a generation born within a particular time frame – I’m a ’90s kid, meaning I fit into the “millennial” category, even though I choose not to define myself by it because I feel it limits us.
3. Did you always dream of becoming a female blogger and if not, what other dreams or aspirations did you have?
In a way, yes. Since high school, I’ve had a YouTube channel. That consisted of music, singing, and me playing the piano. It was a fun hobby, but I never thought I could turn it into a full-time job.
I knew I wanted a creative career with time and location freedom, and I always looked up to other YouTubers because I envied their lifestyle. They got to make videos, be their boss, and travel for work.
That’s what I wanted to do. So, eventually, I had to be honest with myself and decided to pursue it seriously.
4. What inspired or motivated you to start your “Artist Of Life” series?
The ability to create and shape our lives in whatever we desire is the inspiration for Artist of Life. So I decided to include artists I know personally and share their stories with others to illustrate that “Hey, this is achievable.”
If they can accomplish it, so can you.” Inspired by so many people on my path, I want to share it with others.
5. What piece of advice would you give to anyone who is an entrepreneur? And what do you hope they learn from you?
It all comes down to stamina: how long can you stay in the game without giving up? I wouldn’t exchange my entrepreneurial career for anything, since it allows me to wake up every day, create, do what I love, and make a difference in other people’s lives.
That is everything I have ever desired. But the road isn’t simple, and the benefits don’t arrive as quickly as you’d want. Everything takes time and work. Patience and perseverance are essential as you continue learning and studying the industry.
The entrepreneurial route is not for the timid. Before you have even the remotest possibility of success, you must prepare to work for years without receiving any compensation. But if you can continue playing, it will undoubtedly make you stronger.
Then, with all you’ve learned over the years, you’ll feel confident that even if one endeavor fails, you can create another 1.
