Being an influencer is not just about having 100K followers on Instagram and receiving free shit. It&#8217;s about taking the influence you have over your following and being your most authentic self and using that influence to help others see the best in themselves. This buzzword &#8220;influencer&#8221; has the game so messed up that now it&#8217;s not even as respected as it was when influencer marketing first became a thing. Because of this, I don&#8217;t like to claim I&#8217;m an influencer. Yes, I work with brands, but I do more than just receive free product and post online. I operate as a voice for those who can&#8217;t be heard or don&#8217;t have the will to tell their story and I motivate individuals who were just like me, who couldn&#8217;t speak up for themselves.<\/p>\n<h2><img decoding=\"async\" title=\"StockX Image\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-44127\" src=\"https:\/\/images-wp.stockx.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/12\/Charlie-G-643A8778-363-5x7.jpg\" alt=\"Charlie G That's 5\" width=\"393\" height=\"550\" srcset=\"https:\/\/images-wp.stockx.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/12\/Charlie-G-643A8778-363-5x7.jpg 4034w, https:\/\/images-wp.stockx.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/12\/Charlie-G-643A8778-363-5x7-300x420.jpg 300w, https:\/\/images-wp.stockx.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/12\/Charlie-G-643A8778-363-5x7-768x1075.jpg 768w, https:\/\/images-wp.stockx.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/12\/Charlie-G-643A8778-363-5x7-1100x1540.jpg 1100w, https:\/\/images-wp.stockx.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/12\/Charlie-G-643A8778-363-5x7-549x768.jpg 549w, https:\/\/images-wp.stockx.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/12\/Charlie-G-643A8778-363-5x7-450x630.jpg 450w, https:\/\/images-wp.stockx.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/12\/Charlie-G-643A8778-363-5x7-571x800.jpg 571w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 4034px) 100vw, 4034px\" \/><\/h2>\n<h2><strong>Most underrated?<\/strong><\/h2>\n<div>\n<p>The answer could be anything\u2026 Believing in yourself is underrated.
