Karen Civil Covers Rolling Out

Media maven Karen Civil just snagged the cover of Rolling Out Magazine. In the issue, she talks about her upbringing in Elizabeth, NJ, how she turns every social media platform into cash flow, and also how hard it is to hold down a relationship as a well-connected woman:

Civil’s social media savvy and influence among millennials has inspired major brands to take notice. In 2015, Civil says she earned over $500K through social media and her website.

Civil’s success is undeniable. But being successful can have drawbacks. Civil is now a public figure and that doesn’t fare well in the dating department for this single lady.

“It’s not easy for every man to be comfortable with his wife or his girlfriend working around men who are rappers and have certain lifestyles,” she says. “Having this type of career, people may see you as aggressive and may not view you the same and I’m OK with that. I know it is very difficult to go out on a date, to do certain things, to tell people what I do. But sometimes I find myself giving guys a very short version of what I do. Other times, I just find myself trying to guess if the person is really for me, or if the person is interested in business. Because you never know what people’s motives are so you just have to be very careful. I recently had my very first public relationship and then it went sour. There are things that I would do different. But, it’s just a situation where it didn’t work out. As much as you love a person, as much as they may love you, if they don’t see the potential for themselves, then they are never going to see it for you.”

Civil has built a name for herself that has yet to be torn down by accusations and a few negative memes and tweets. She continues to brand her company, use social media to her advantage, and give words of advice to people who are looking for the best path to success.
