Ask Me Anything…

Ask Me Anything…
Carly Jacobs
I

realised quite recently that I often get asked random questions on Facebook, Twitter and Instagram but the questions get buried so quickly and sometimes I miss them. Also Facebook messages SUCK on business pages which means I often end up missing a whole lot of questions which makes me look like a giant jerk off.

So I thought I’d give you guys the opportunity to ask me anything! I’ll answer all the questions in a blog post. You can ask about my hair (very popular topic), careers advice, living in Melbourne, running several business at the same time, theatre, weight loss, friendships, crocheting… ask me anything!

You can ask anonymously or send an email if you’re too shy to ask in the comments.

Also as a way of saying thank you to those who ask questions I’ll be giving away three Essie nail polish packs with three bottles of scrummy Essie polish in each. All you have to do to win is ask a question in the comments.

So if you’re keen to get your hands on some cute nail polish make sure to ask a question! It’s open to everyone world wide so don’t be shy.

So tell me… what have you always wanted to know?

Research has shown that people who subscribe to the Smaggle newsletter and like Smags on Facebook are more likely to win the lottery. That’s probably not true but why take the risk?

    Hi Carly! I’m a freshman in college and I’m also brand new to the blogging world and have fallen in love with the idea of it. What would you tell a girl who is stuck as an undecided major who has a passion for creative writing and photography, but with the expectations to become something that doesn’t utilize those passions (i.e. teaching, nursing etc.) but are stable careers? Thanks so much!

    How do you tell a hairdresser they’ve done a sucky job? I am also a curly haired gal and can’t get a good cut to save my life!!!

    Do you feel a lot of pressure not having a conventional job – can you ever switch off?

    Hi Carly.

    Ok, I am super intrigued with this one…I’ve been reading your blog for many years (to the Canberra era) and remember you moved to Melbourne to start a jewellery course. What happened afterwards (or during for that matter) that made you decide to not become a jeweller, or to go down the path you are currently on? Do you have any of your pieces?!

    Also Carly- I miss you style posts. That was the original reason I started reading Smaggle- don’t worry, I love the site now 😉 But perhaps of more importance- beauty posts! Please do a few!

    Hi Carly,
    I’ve started a few websites and blogs and finding I’ve got probs a few too many…. !! and I also have a day job. Still new at all the blogging so wondering if I’ve got a can of worms that I maybe should pop the lid on.
    So glad to be able to ask Q’s. Ps love your blogging too!

    How do you decide what your dream job is when you have been “looking and deciding” for years but have not come up with an answer? You want to live a life being of service to others with your gifts but you don’t know exactly how and what that “job” would look like?………..that’s a curly one for you 😉

    I’m a full time professional clairvoyant- I’m finding my biz demands are becoming overwhelming. How do you suggest a business woman construct her schedule while reaping the benefits of being your own boss and still maintaining balance

    Next March I will be visiting Melbourne for the first time with 2 girlfriends. I’d love your suggestions on where to stay, eat and play!! We want to pack as much as we can into 4 days. PS. Love your blog!

    Hey – I asked about where to live in Melbourne on Insta! What suburbs in Melbourne are you favourite?
    thanks!

  24. Love your bouf.. I haven’t *always* wanted to ask this, but would love to see suggestions to reduce waste in the house / kitchen. This includes compost, recycling, or buying in bulk maybe? Apologies if you’ve done this before and I missed it.

    Your number one song, movie and book? I never get tired of perving on people’s faves 😀

    Lots of super (and deep) questions!! Can’t wait to see the blog post.

    Another hair one – I have mastered my curls (finally! Yay!) but wanted to ask about head scarves. I know you did a post on wearing them with confidence but my question is about technique: how do you actually wrap/tuck it? How long are the scarves you wear?

    Here’s a late one for you! What do you think is MORE important? Choosing a niche, or staying authentic and letting your tribe gather slowly?
