June 17, 2025: Emma Chamberlain is stepping into a new chapter of her life — one that’s rich in self-discovery, caffeine, and creativity. Fresh off her 24th birthday, the influencer, entrepreneur, and podcaster opened up about her “sober journey,” creative growth, and the exciting launch of a limited-edition Sea Salt Toffee blend from her brand, Chamberlain Coffee — in collaboration with Pinterest. Notably, this is Pinterest’s first-ever co-branded product in its 15-year history.
Speaking exclusively to PEOPLE, Chamberlain shared that she’s been sober for a while and prefers a coffee shop over a bar any day. “I don’t want to go get a glass of wine. I want to go get an espresso at 11:00 p.m.,” she joked. “I wish coffee shops were open that late!”
She also reflected on her long-standing love for Pinterest, revealing how it’s inspired everything from fashion to YouTube and podcast ideas. The latest coffee blend was inspired by Pinterest’s “Fisherman Aesthetic” — a nod to her East Coast childhood summers in Maine.
Despite her early viral fame and the blurred lines between personal and professional life, Chamberlain says she has reached a “really beautiful place” of emotional stability and creative inspiration. She’s learning to embrace balance — much like finding the perfect cup of coffee.
Whether it’s her caffeine limits (no more than three cups a day!) or new business ventures, Chamberlain is all about feeling good and doing what feels right.“It’s just about getting it to that perfect balance,” she says.
