“For a while I had been feeling unsettled” Sharon Mundia reveals why she quit social media

The last time Sharon Mundia aka This Is Ess posted on Instagram was on December 25th 2016, some six months before she gave birth to her daughter.

The Fashion and lifestyle blogger was very active especially on Instagram where she used to engage her fan, many people believed she quit social media to concentrate on being a mother to her first child. But this wasn’t the case.

So why did Sharon stopped posting on social networking platforms? In her YouTube channel, Mundia explained that she lost track and felt burdened to continue with her activities on social media.

“For a while I had been feeling unsettled in my role as an influencer or as a creative, I didn’t know how to be myself and I would just share because of sharing or because a contract says I need to put this up at this time and it wasn’t authentic, it wasn’t really me. It was making something that I once loved feel like a chore and a burden and I was starting to resent it. And after months and months of thinking about it I realised that there were a couple of issues I had about it, I didn’t know what my why was. Whereas I started my blog because I needed an escape because I was going through something in my life… at some point I was like, wait a second, I actually like this, let me do it for good. And then it became if I’m doing this solely then it needs to make financial sense, so now I’m doing it chasing the money. All that was good but that can’t be what is fully driving me yet it was something I completely enjoyed. It wasn’t clear what my purpose was and I started to feel guilty… it was driving me nuts… ” Sharon Mundia explained.
