Great excitement after lots of effort I've finally posted my first video. If you'd like a look here's the link https://www.youtube.com/@SelfAwareWomen If you'd like to have a look any feedback is welcome. I'm not sure why but when I search for the video my banner is not showing just the little icon which has to be changed (not tonite) . Frustration - any suggestions??

I'll tell you all about it on Monday! Come celebrate my 47th birthday and I'll reveal my new project to you all as well! Woohoo let's go! A lot of you have been waiting patiently for this, and I am so excited to share it with you! Come live to find out what it is. :) In the meantime, have a lovely weekend! Happy Friday! -Alexa Link to event on calendar

So I read somewhere that when you upload videos, you should schedule it 24 hours later to publish to allow youtube time to analyze and find the correct viewers to recommend to. Does anyone actually do this or do you just publish after uploading?

Although my channel is still sitting there empty, the name isn’t new to me. I’ve already spent time with it, turned it over, and worked through something similar before. I still showed up for this though… just to stay open and see if anything new wanted to come through. Nothing shifted. No new direction, no sudden clarity around a different name. So I’m going to share it here—and I’m curious what you feel from it. My channel is Yoga Remedy. What do you think this channel is about? And what’s your honest take on the name? @Eddi Pinegar @Dr. Saundra Stancil @Jenny Sharratt @Jaye Brunner @Dajana K.

Hey friends — as many of you know I used to create articles like this to share research and video breakdowns. It's been a while, and I want to acknowledge that I've missed doing so. Life has a way of pulling us in different directions — and in the winter with snow and taxes, it's harder to keep up. When I watched this video though, I felt I had to share it. The video is by Chris Do of The Futur, released March 24, 2026. It's called **"The Content Strategy Nobody Is Talking About (But Should Be)"** 👉 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GaDK_zVy1Cc --- **🤔 The Central Question** Chris starts with a central question: *"If anyone can go viral... should you?"* He then makes a compelling case that virality is actually a trap. **If you DO go viral:** You enter the **Validation Loop** — looking outside yourself for proof you're doing something worthwhile, constantly needing to repeat it. **If you DON'T go viral again:** Motivation tanks, self-worth takes a hit, burnout follows, and eventually you quit. --- **🚨 The Four Problems With Chasing Virality** **1️⃣ The Seduction** — Platforms never tell you how to go viral. It's intentionally opaque. So we hand our emotional well-being over to algorithms and gurus who are also just guessing. **2️⃣ The Addiction** — The platform hooks you like a dealer with a sample. The cruel twist: *the day before your post went viral, you were happy making progress.* After going viral, normal progress never feels good enough again. **3️⃣ The Prison** — Go viral doing something specific and that thing becomes your cage. People expect it every time. When you try to return to something more authentic, the audience punishes you: *"This isn't what we followed you for."* **4️⃣ The Awakening** — Followers don't equal community. VidCon invited major TikTokers with millions of followers to speak. Rooms built for 500–800 people had 20–30 seats filled. One creator with 1.3 million followers held a meet-and-greet. Nobody came.
