Today we’d like to introduce you to Sarah Hernandez.
Alright, so thank you so much for sharing your story and insight with our readers. To kick things off, can you tell us a bit about how you got started?
My name is Sarah. I started creating content on TikTok a little over 2 years ago. And I honestly started social media to help with my acting career. I had found out that I lost out on an acting opportunity because the production decided to go with someone who had a larger social media following. And that’s what brought me into the world of social media. And it’s honestly been an adventure. I had no idea what I wanted to do when I started. Tried a few video trends. But honestly found my people and felt I could be myself in the Disney community. I began live streaming and quickly loved the connection I felt with a live audience. It’s different from posting content. I’ve always had a heart to encourage and inspire people and Walt Disney has always inspired me to go for my own dreams and goals. (In a huge Walt Disney fan!) So, I began this little thing I like to call the “Wishing Well Ceremony.” At the end of my streams, I bring my viewers to Snow White’s Wishing Well in Disneyland and share a little inspirational and encouraging message. And I make sure to have a coin with me to toss in for them and their dreams! I believe people matter, and their dreams and goals do too! It’s so easy in life to forget about them, get discouraged, and even be tempted to stop pursuing them. I believe no matter what age you are; you can always dream again! Disney is all about making dreams come true! And I love reminding people to keep going! It’s been an incredible journey! And I’m truly grateful for it!
Disneyland is so much fun, and I just enjoy sharing my own experiences and love of everything surrounding it with the world!
There’s much more to share, but that might be something I can share when we speak 🙂
Would you say it’s been a smooth road, and if not, what are some of the biggest challenges you’ve faced along the way?
I think anything worthwhile in life requires a bit of hard work and consistency. It has taken time to build and grow my following, and there have been moments where I almost threw in the towel and genuinely thought about quitting. I don’t think it’s a secret that the internet is not always the nicest. It can get really hard to handle the hate that does come with being a content creator. But I’m not a quitter. When I’m passionate about something…I have to see it through! The people I get to encourage, inspire, and meet are honestly worth it. And the best views are always at the top of the hardest mountain you’ve just climbed. So, the struggles are worth it! This journey has definitely revealed and helped me build my own character.
Thanks for sharing that. So, maybe next you can tell us a bit more about your work?
I specialize in creating content on social media that is fun, entertaining, helpful, and inspiring. I also love to shop! I enjoy sharing my favorite things I find and bring people along those fun journeys with me! And, of course, majority of it revolves around Disney!
There are hundreds of Disney content creators! And I think what sets me apart is…MY HEART. What I do and share at the Wishing Well always comes from my heart. I genuinely love spreading hope and positivity. I love encouraging people to go for their dreams and goals! I always say… “There’s only one Disney… But there’s also only one YOU. So be yourself. Share what you love. Your own passions. Then you’ll find your voice in this community.”
I’ll never forget I had one girl privately messaged me and shared with me that she was moments away from no longer being with us on this earth because she felt she didn’t have value or a purpose. And I got to be a small part of reminding her that she mattered. And what she wanted to be in life was important, and to not give up. That message forever changed my perspective on what it means to do what I do. And that’s why I keep creating.
Alright, so before we go can you talk to us a bit about how people can work with you, collaborate with you, or support you?
I would love to work with organizations and businesses that want to make a difference. Maybe what they are selling, performing, sharing has a greater purpose in mind. I’d love to partner and use my platform to help good causes that are truly making a difference!
