During the pandemic, TikTok skyrocketed in popularity. People flocked to the app to watch entertaining videos and participate in catchy dance trends. Creators posted video after video, hoping to gain popularity and become well-known influencers on the platform. TikTok content creator Stephanee Beggs downloaded the app in June of 2022 because she had spare time during the pandemic.

She posted two quick videos just for fun. One was about her and her best friend, using a trending audio sound. The other video was about her nursing school journey. It immediately went viral and got more than 240,000 likes. 

From that moment on, she posted educational content about the topics she was studying for the NCLEX and the nursing board exam. 

“To be honest, there was no intent behind the posts, yet each video kept going viral,” Beggs said. “I started to realize that viewers really enjoyed the educational aspect of nursing and healthcare.”

Since then, Beggs has gained more than 780,000 followers on TikTok and has earned over $100,000 a month from the platform. She told Passionfruit how she makes her money and what she wishes she knew before becoming a millionaire content creator. Here are her top tips.
