Paige Spiranac reveals the 'biggest lesson' from her 10-year golf influencer career

Paige Spiranac revealed the biggest lesson she learned from her content creation career in her recent YouTube video. She was a professional golfer before she switched career paths and grew interested in modeling and content creation. In her decade-long career in content creation, Spiranac has gained enormous popularity and enjoys tremendous fame on different social media platforms.

On January 9, Paige Spiranac dropped the latest video on her YouTube channel, talking about her content creation journey. In the new video, the American former golfer opened up about the lessons she learned from her journey. She spoke about being "vulnerable" and "emotional," saying (13:20):

"So, throughout these 10 years, one thing that was the biggest lesson I learned is that being emotional is okay. It’s good to be vulnerable. When I first started doing this, it was at a time when social media was all about showing off your accomplishments, how hot you were, how much money you had, how great your relationship was, how big your house was — it was all about showing off things that maybe you had or even didn’t have."

She further elaborated on how she started her journey and her insecurities, adding:

"When I first started, I had no idea what I was doing. I was this insecure, emotional 21-year-old with no media training and no path to follow. So, what I did instead is that I was brutally honest about who I am as a person, and I was also highly emotional."

Over the years, Paige Spiranac has cemented her name in the golf content creation industry. She has around 436K subscribers on YouTube.

"There were things that I spoke out about, like revenge porn, and things happening to me that I was vague about. People thought I was just sad that people were sexualizing me, but that’s never what it was about at all. I did cry and talk about it, and it put me in a vulnerable position.

"There were times when sponsors reached out saying it was a bad look and that I needed to stop crying, that no one wants to hear about my anxiety, or that crying makes me look weak. I regretted the fact that I showed vulnerability," she added.
