Hello New Folks! Please feel free to introduce yourself here and get to know the community a bit better.

Been a minute since I’ve been on here and I completely forgot to post about it, but last Friday, I crossed the milestone of 750 subscribers! We’re finally only a quarter away from 1000!!!!! 😁🙌🏻

I started my channel sometime in 2019. I played around with a few different topics and themes. I couldn't settle on what I wanted to do and I didn't know who my audience would be - all I knew was "midlife women". But I had fun learning to film and edit. I was very erratic in my posting and sometimes gave up on it for many, many months at a time. But, as my career is coming to an end, I knew I wanted to grow this channel into something I could work on when I retire. I enjoy it and I love to share. So, in the summer of 2024 I started posting videos on a more regular basis. I really wanted to figure out what specifically I wanted to post. I've taken courses in the past and I was actually taking another course during this time and realized that wasn't it! I found Alexa's videos and watched a bunch. I felt her authenticity through the videos and it didn't hurt that she's living in my home country! I had several sessions with @Alexa Saarenoja and she helped me find my "special sauce", my unique selling proposition and the rest is history. I finally hit 1k subs in the summer of 2024 and now 5 months later I've more than doubled that! I was monetized in mid December and I'm hopeful that I have finally found my niche that will continue to grow. I'm so excited and grateful for all the help I've received throughout this long road. I'm so glad I found Alexa's channel when she was just starting out and full of so much enthusiasm for the process!

I am Viola and super excited to be a member of the tribe!! Excited for the journey !🙌
