My Creator Income Report: 2025 will tell you all about my fourth year as a food blogger and content creator. I’ll go into detail about exactly how much I made, and what I learned along the way.
The Purpose
I write these income reports in hopes to inspire you and offer guidance so that you can follow your dreams too. My journey isn’t about “how I got rich quick”, it is a slow steady burn consisting of hard work and a passion for this business. I assure you with a combination of faith, passion, and consistency you will succeed.
The Background
I have been working on Kenna’s Cooks for about four years now. My journey began in 2021 when I wanted to learn how to make money online. That desire has now turned into my own business and raging passion that I devote time to every single day. If you haven’t already read my First Year as a Blogger and Influencer I recommend you read it to understand where I began.
Wow this year was a whirlwind of emotions and excitement! In April I packed up all my belongings and moved to Calgary. As someone who struggles with people pleasing, 2025 became a year of finally prioritizing my happiness and dreams instead of everyone else’s. This was an incredible year of growth for me. I sharpened my mind with podcasts and books, created a safe environment for my emotions, prioritized my health/physical activity, and built a firm foundation on my King and Saviour Jesus Christ. I have learned so much this year, and cannot wait to enter 2026 with all the skills and lessons I graciously received this year.
This was my first year of being a full time content creator. I feel so incredibly blessed and thankful to be able to call this my job. Before we get into the numbers I want to thank all of my lovely followers. Without you guys I wouldnt have a platform to share my passion. Thank you for all your wonderful comments and DM’s, they always make my day. I’m so excited to keep creating more content for you in 2026. My number one thank you is to God. Thank you for being patient with me as I learn. Thank you for providing me wisdom and guiding me when I stumble. Thank you for blessing me with the gift of creativity and a platform that I can dedicate to You. Thank you for always loving me even when I stray. All for Your kingdoms glory.

Detailed breakdown of 2025 earnings
My creator income report: 2025
I have two main income streams: the money I make passively from my website (blogging revenue) and brand deals (sponsored content).
Blogging Revenue: I am still with mediavine and loving it! It has become a consistent source of income for me. There are some fluctuations depending on my website traffic, but for the most part I cant expect similar numbers for each month.
Blogging Revenue: Thank you to all the brands that I was blessed to partner with this year! I love getting to bring creative campaigns to life and work with so many amazing companies. Although I never can predict when I will get a brand deal, they are often the biggest chunk of my income. Next year some dream brands I’d be honoured to work with are: KitchenAid, Le Creuset, MadeIn, and Better Than Bouillon.
The conclusion
This year was so wonderful. I learned so much, grew in every area of my life, and met so many amazing new friends. I’m so excited to enter the new year and continue growing every single day. 2026 is going to be an amazing year!
Some goals for 2026:
- This year I didn’t write any goals or numerical benchmarks to hit which is new for me. I decided that this year I am just going to focus on creating what I love, and through focusing on that I hope to inspire others to do the same thing.
Thank you for reading this years income report! I’m not sure if I will continue to write these, so maybe I’ll see you next year, maybe I won’t 🙂

Trust in the Lord with all your heart
and lean not on your own understanding;
in all your ways submit to him,
and he will make your paths straight.
