So excited to join this community and learn from everyone

I've been working with Lori for about a month now, and she had a major breakthrough with her most recent video. Not in views yet, but in delivery and creating connection with the viewer. It made me cry and smile all at the same time. I’ll place the video below if you want to watch it, but the point I want to make is this — I remembered practically every bit of her story in the video, down to the comment about the feeling inside the hospital. She connected to my heart and my emotions, and that made me remember, learn, and hear her teachings. Yet I could watch a listicle video and not remember a single thing. THIS is the power of story. THIS is what separates one YouTuber from the next. Everyone can ask ChatGPT to make a script and read it to the camera, but NO ONE can speak your story or your experiences for you. And when you tap into your essence and share that through YouTube, you become unstoppable. I know not everyone wants to share personal stories — and that’s not entirely the point. Share what you want and what you feel comfortable with, but what I am saying is: learn how to tell stories. Commonly, I hear people describe things void of any emotion, such as: “I went to the store and I tried to buy my kids food, but I realized I didn’t have enough money, so we left the store. It was embarrassing.” Versus: “We walked into the store starving. My kids hadn’t had a proper meal in days. We found some cheap, day-old buns and could already taste the sweetness before getting to the cashier counter. But when the cashier scanned the items, my heart sank — they were priced wrong. We couldn’t afford them. Not even one of them. I was so ashamed, I tried to play it off like I forgot my wallet, but my children knew I had it with me. They pleaded at me with their eyes, please mommy, buy them, and it was then, in that moment, that I knew…” Can you see the difference? Feel the difference? One story is forgettable. The other is unforgettable. Here is her video and by the way her retention for this video was THROUGH THE ROOF! Power of story. Learn this skill and you will thrive on youtube.

I’m on a mission to publish one in-depth, no-stone-unturned deep dive video every week on my channel — breaking down the exact processes and systems that can help you grow your YouTube channel and your business (if that’s your goal). Right now, I’ve got a 1-hour masterclass on how to make $5K/month with YouTube in the hands of my editor, and today I’ve been working on a deep dive into email setup and email marketing so you can safeguard your subscribers off-platform. I’m also planning a full breakdown on how I got monetized in just 10 weeks. What topics do you want me to tackle next? Mindset, camera confidence, lead generation, coaching, community building, course creation… something else entirely? Drop your ideas and I’ll do my best to serve them up ASAP.
