This year we celebrated Curating Edits First Anniversary, which was a great achievement in itself. We will share why below.
First Personal Achievement of 2023
Well, this had not been our first attempt at blogging. Curating Edits has had various iterations. We attempted to narrow it down to a specific niche and tried various names but it didn’t feel right. The blogs never took off and our motivation quickly simmered.
Imagine the personal growth it took to sit down and TRY AGAIN! The humbleness was there and the ego had to take a time-out, and this blog came to fruition from the pivoting mindset.
Is it perfect?
Not even close! The idea was to start even when it wasn’t perfect. The growth comes from just getting it done and doing your best. Which we attempt every single time, with every single post. It will get better with time, and we are still trying out new things. Curating Edits will not settle and we will continue to improve.

Second Personal Achievement
We worked together with Canadian Down and Feather Company on Curating Edits first sponsored post which you can check out HERE. The CDFC was kind enough to provide the Curating Edits audience with an exclusive code which was a first to us. Shop Canadian Down & Feather Company*. From that sponsored post, the team at Canadian Down and Feather Company sent us two of our favorite pillows the Microfiber Down Alternative Pillow, which you can check out our unboxing video over at TIKTOK.
Third Personal Achievement
Marketing has always been a topic that interested me from a young age I can safely say. The idea of PR and Marketing, going hand-in-hand, fascinated me. Mind you I was exposed to a lot of media in the sense of magazines: from fashion magazines to gossip magazines.
Sidenote: The idea of getting product samples in a magazine thrilled me. And luckily being overseas, magazines still do that over here. From purchasing December’s edition of Vogue, I also got a Vogue 2024 Agenda and a sample of the Gucci Flora Magnolia Eau de Parfum. WIN!
As I was writing, marketing was always a curious topic for me. As I’ve grown up learning is something that I enjoy, maybe because I am the one choosing the topics instead of following a curriculum. I consider myself to have a “growth mindset”, if I find something I want to learn about, I can do so and enjoy it.
Well having a social media background, I think it’s important to always update your skills, keep up with the news, and continue your learning. It was fun to see that Google had released on Coursera the Digital Marketing and E-commerce professional certificate, which we completed just in time to end the year 2023.
What’s Next?
What personal achievements do I have for Curating Edits in the new year? Well to continue to grow. To be more consistent with providing content that is useful and solves questions our audience might have.
Personally
I’m embarking on two other educational journeys. I will discuss them once I complete them because I still do not know which I will decide on, and I want to start the new year with a clear mind to make that decision along the way.
