GlitchGirl

Elara Vance lives a double life. To her 100,000 Instagram followers, she’s the picture of aspirational wellness, a Seattle influencer peddling athleisure and green juice cleanses.  But behind the perfectly filtered façade, a suffocating anxiety gnaws at her, each “like” a fleeting validation in a world built on manufactured perfection.  Her secret?  Elara is also GlitchGirl, the anonymous blogger exposing the dark underbelly of the influencer industry, the ethical compromises and manipulative tactics hidden beneath the glossy veneer.
When Elara leaks evidence of exploitative labor practices at Everglow, a wellness brand championed by her friend and rival influencer, Noelle Hayes, the internet implodes.  Noelle, blinded by ambition, suspects Elara’s betrayal, and their friendship spirals into a venomous rivalry played out in the passive-aggressive theater of Instagram stories.
As the online drama escalates, Elara seeks refuge in therapy, where unconventional Dr. Iris Bellwether, a recovering social media addict herself, challenges Elara’s carefully constructed defenses.  Their sessions unearth a childhood marked by emotional neglect, a void Elara now tries to fill with the empty calories of online approval.
The pressure mounts until, during a live-streamed product launch, Elara’s carefully curated mask shatters, revealing a raw vulnerability that sparks a brutal online backlash. Brands sever ties, followers turn on her, and Noelle fans the flames of public scrutiny.  Elara’s world implodes, leaving her isolated and questioning her very existence in the digital landscape that has both defined and consumed her.
But GlitchGirl’s voice refuses to be silenced.  With Dr. Bellwether’s guidance, Elara finds the courage to reclaim her narrative, not as the flawless influencer, but as a woman who has fallen prey to the system and emerged with a story to tell.  At a high-profile influencer summit, Elara reveals her identity as GlitchGirl, exposing the toxic truths of the industry and sparking a wave of confessions from others trapped in the same cycle. 
Will Elara’s act of defiance ignite real change, or will she become another casualty in the relentless pursuit of online fame?  Dive into the world of *GlitchGirl: The Influencer’s Secret* and uncover the price of perfection in the digital age.
