Everyday life as a content creator

In this interview Caro talks to us about the foundation of her own brand Ninety-9, which she built up together with her father. Among other things, she tells us about her personal favorite piece of her own brand and her personal biggest success in her social media career. Bags are Caro’s hobby, so to speak, so we asked her which bag is still missing in her collection. She also tells us what her everyday life is like in general. Because with social media, Ninety-9, her podcast with Sonny Loops and many other projects, her everyday life is full. How she manages all that and gets it under one hat, she reveals here in this interview.

Caro’s own brand: Ninety-9

FIV: Hello dear Caro, how nice that it worked out with the interview today! Let’s start with the first question. Two years ago you founded your own brand Ninety-9 with your father. Would you like to tell us about your experience of starting your own business at such a young age?

Caro: It’s still a challenge every day. I couldn’t have done it all without my father. It’s important and great to have someone at your side who already has experience when it comes to starting a business. Every day there are different tasks and hurdles that come up and that we have to overcome and master together. Together, we can always look for a suitable solution and then implement it accordingly.

Caro’s favorites from Ninety-9: Bikinis

FIV: It’s always good when you’re not alone in such situations. What is your personal favorite Ninety-9 piece?

Caro: Definitely our bikinis and something that is now launching: our signature tops and dresses with super soft fabric and very everyday cuts.

Every day is always different

FIV: Besides your brand, you have many projects going on at the same time like social media, your podcast with Sonny Loops and a lot more. So you always have a lot going on, what does a typical day look like for you?

Caro: I get up at just before 7 and get ready for sports at 8. After that I go home again, shower and get ready for the day and then the first daily call starts. Then I go out with Skei and feed her afterwards. I make my to do lists every day and look at what’s coming up for the day, like collaborations, YouTube videos or TikToks and whether I’m working from home or going to the office. I then work through this list throughout the day. But you can say that every day is actually always different. In the evening, I like to end the day with my boyfriend on the couch, we order food or cook something and watch a series.

Own discipline: To Do lists & goals

FIV: Many projects require a lot of discipline. Do you have any tips for our readers on how to increase their own discipline?

Caro: Create to-do lists and set realistic goals. Because when you have achieved this goal, even if it is only a small thing or an intermediate goal, this triggers happiness hormones and motivates for the next day and the next goal. You can also write yourself little notes with reminders for everyday life and hang them up in the bathroom, for example, and regularly remind yourself of this positive energy.

Pussy talk together with Sonny Loops

FIV: As mentioned before, you have your podcast together with Sonny Loops and since you just have so many projects, we would be interested to know what inspired you to record your own podcast back then?

Caro: I wanted to do a podcast for quite a long time before Pussytalk, but I never really knew how to start and was pretty busy with other projects at the same time. Then Sonny approached me with the idea of a joint podcast and that’s how the whole thing came about. We can share the work so well.

Louis Vuitton Vintage Bag

FIV: You recently bought a new dream bag from Hermès. Is there another bag you’re dying to get at some point?

Caro: I am currently super happy with my bag collection. On my list is still a Louis Vuitton vintage bag, because I also like to buy very second hand. Here I am already longer on the search, because the model is no longer produced and the price and the condition should of course also fit.

Caro’s greatest success: Ninety-9

FIV: For you personally, what has been your biggest success in your social media career so far?

Caro: The biggest success was, among other things, Ninety9 and that I was able to make this project big together with my dad or launch it at all. Another milestone and dream was the invitation from Dior to the South of France.

“Trust your inner voice”

FIV: If you could meet your former self, what would you want to say to yourself?

Caro: Always listen to your gut feeling and trust your inner voice. You know the right way and should follow it.

Future Projects: Sneak Peaks

FIV: Do you have any projects coming up maybe and you could give our readers a little sneak peak exclusively?

Caro: There are still some new projects coming up and one of them doesn’t necessarily have anything to do with social media. It’s going into other areas as well. I hope I can tell you more soon!

FIV: Thank you very much for your time and the great interview. I wish you a lot of success on your way!

Discovering the world with a poor sense of direction

In this interview Sophia talks to us about her passion, namely sports. To be more precise, surfing. Sophia travels around the world and tries to catch the best waves. Sri Lanka is at the top of her list, because there are the best waves and lovely and helpful locals. When traveling, apps are especially helpful, so she reveals must-have apps for traveling, as well as her must-have beauty items that no trip should be without. She also shares surfing tips for beginners and where to get the best bikinis. Learn more here!

Sri Lanka: The best place to surf

FIV: Hello dear Sophia, we are glad that the interview worked out. Let’s get started right away. We see you traveling a lot on your social media channels. What is your favorite travel destination so far and why?

Sophia: I’ve been to so many incredibly beautiful places over the past year, so it’s hard for me to pick a clear favorite. But my trip to Sri Lanka definitely stands out, as this beautiful country inspired me in so many ways. It’s where I first stood on a surfboard and ever since I surfed my first good wave, I haven’t wanted to do anything else! I have subsequently been to the Atlantic coast of Europe, Indonesia and the Maldives and I have to say unequivocally that I surfed the best waves for me in Sri Lanka. Our surf instructor always called it cheated because you get to surf so much and have less to fight with the waves – so I can recommend it especially to all surf beginners to travel to Sri Lanka. It really is such a great country, with an incredibly interesting culture, let alone the delicious food and stunning nature. Also, I always felt totally safe and all the locals were always so sweet and helpful.

Sophia Apps Must-Haves for Travel

FIV: Wow, that sounds great! When you’re traveling, some apps are really helpful in finding your way around a foreign country. So what are your top 3 apps that help you the most when you travel?

Sophia: Google maps – an absolute must-have for me, not only for route planning, but also to find restaurants and accommodations. Translate Now – for me one of the best translators, especially because of the video and voice function. Especially in Indonesia it was often difficult to find vegetarian options, even more so when you don’t even know what’s on the menu. Nordvpn – a good VPN definitely made my life easier, as a lot of content is blocked or blocked in other countries.

No trip without red cherry chapstick

FIV: That sounds like a good selection! Let’s move on to the topic of beauty while traveling. What are your top 5 beauty essentials that you would never travel without?

Sophia: Since I’m primarily traveling in areas where it’s always summer, I use almost no makeup at all. The most beautiful makeup is still the summer tan. However, a little powder and blush always comes along. And I would never go anywhere without my red cherry chapstick. I love the slight red shimmer on the lips, the extra care and the taste! Otherwise, I also always have argan oil / coconut oil for skin and hair.

The dream of a house with ranch

FIV: Because of all your traveling, you are of course not so much in Germany. Could you imagine emigrating and if so, where to?

Sophia: Ever since I was little, I’ve dreamed of owning a house with a small ranch. At the moment, I can’t imagine living this dream in Germany. In general, I don’t plan my life down to the smallest detail, but rather go with the flow. But one thing I know, I want sea, sun and surf in the immediate vicinity of my future home.

With board and horse to the beach

FIV: Besides your travel content, sports is also a big topic on your social media channels. On Instagram and TikTok you can be seen dancing, in the gym, riding and surfing. Of these sports, what do you enjoy the most and why?

Sophia: Riding has always been my great passion and since recently it is also surfing. My dream is to ride to the beach with my board under my arm on my horse Loui.

Sophia’s Surfing Tips for Beginners

FIV: Since surfing is very present with you right now, we would like to ask you if you have any tips for beginners who have never surfed before?

Sophia: I would say the most important thing is to keep your expectations low. If you expect to be able to surf well after one week at the surf camp, it will definitely frustrate you. You should just try to have fun with it and build up on small successes – it’s always a gift to be in the water, even if the session didn’t go well. Surfing is super complicated and depends not only on you, but on an incredible amount of factors. I would describe it less as a sport and more as a way of life where you slowly but steadily learn a lot about the ocean and yourself.

Sophia approved bikinis: Naked, Rip Curl,…

FIV: Through traveling and surfing, you are a lot in contact with water. Especially when surfing, you need a good bikini. Which brands are your top 3 for bikinis?

Sophia: Naked, Rip Curl and Hurley.

Instagram has changed

FIV: If you had to choose between the Instagram and TikTok platforms, which would you choose and why?

Sophia: I would definitely choose Instagram, because the general trend is that content is becoming more and more ephemeral. However, Instagram has also changed a lot and is no longer what it used to be. Pictures are reduced to their first impression and the artistic in them often comes too short, videos are only interesting if they shock within the first seconds, and so on…

Sunshine and rivet in mental arithmetic

FIV: Since you share most of your life on social media, it would be very interesting to know what kind of person you are behind the camera. How would your friends describe you?

Sophia: I gave the question to my friends:

(1) Sophia is a little sunshine. Her cheerful and carefree nature is absolutely infectious. She always has an open ear for me and always has good advice in store. I always feel understood with her. Above all, you can philosophize with her for hours about life. She is certainly the most emphatic person I know and always tries to please everyone, even if she herself comes up short. She has a huge heart for animals and has to give some love to every animal she sees. She has the absolute worst sense of direction in the world. She really can never say no, but loves to help and see others happy. She is an absolute loser at mental arithmetic. She is a really sore loser. She always knows what she wants and makes impulsive decisions based on her gut. What I like most about her is that she can get excited about the most mundane things in life and sees something positive and beautiful in everything.

(2) You are a person who puts family and friends first. Directly followed by nature, animals and sports. You are a person who tries to please everyone, which is why sleeping and eating sometimes come too short. You are a total heart person, but at the same time you can be relied on when you need an honest opinion. It’s no problem for you to swim against the current. You can lose just as badly as I can! Your ambition drives you to be the best in everything. You can be a little bit crazy sometimes, but who isn’t?

Greatest success: Making a difference with reach

FIV: Lastly, we’d love to hear from you about what has been your biggest success so far in your social media career?

Sophia: Definitely: The fact that I can make a difference with my reach. I get so many messages that I inspire people with my lifestyle and have influenced their lives for the better as a result. That is and remains my greatest success.

FIV: You are truly an inspiring personality! Thank you for your time and the great interview!
