This achievement might as well be the golden play button it feels so amazing! 1,000 people got value from something I said, 1,000 people spent their most treasured commodity, time, to watch my videos and 1,000 people connected with me on some level - how frickin' awesome is that?! I'm now going to celebrate by editing my next video🤣

Hello Everyone, Happy to be here. Really excited to learn.

I started my channel 22 days ago and so far I have posted 22 videos as part of another challenge (I hadn't found this community and Alexa before hand) and I'm starting to think about once I've finished the challenge and what I will be posting without having a daily prompt. Everyone on YT is saying how important your "niche" is and I'm starting to worry that I don't have one at all. I have had many jobs and owned businesses in many different genres, but I honestly don't feel qualified to talk about them in my videos...(even though I probably am!!) I just don't know where to start... anyone have any help or advice please? Thank you... and sorry for the ramble!

So far, in the restart (FINALLY!) of my YouTube channel this month -after almost 10 yrs of dead silence- I’ve created and published 7 new short-form videos and 12 shorts. And just today, I got one ridiculous comment on my latest short (haha -people!)… but also today, I got 2 more subscribers. That makes 10 more subscribers than I had on Oct 31st before I restarted…hey, that’s one for each year I hadn’t uploaded anything on my channel 😜. (I’m no @Rachel Benson, @Tina Holsten, or @Mike Bayer just yet, but I’ll keep the dream alive 🥹🤩.) Slowwwww and steady, right? 🐢 I’ve gotta say, the biggest hurdle for me is the tech, not in the how, but in the WHAT…as in, my device limitations with storage and software. (I know, I know @Mike Karabell -that iPhone 12 life has me breathing my last breaths 😅.) I have to upgrade everything, after NOT needing to in yearrrrs. My biz thrived on FB referrals…and EVERYTHING was delivered live on Zoom -easy peasy. So I got comfortable in ‘that’ space. But I also got TIRED of weeding through the constant noise of the Meta platforms. (Soooo much noise!) Rediscovering YouTube as a viable solution? And coming across @Alexa Saarenoja? Whoa. Talk about serendipity. (Her fiery spunk reminds me of mine - #SistersFromOtherMisters 🤪) Yes, I’d decided to give yt the attention it merits for the B-HAGs I want to achieve. And THAT means I’ve gotta hop on these upgrades soon so that I’m not spending mindless hours just downloading and uploading from multiple apps and devices w/varying capabilities. (Cue the panic attack…nevermind. I’m in control of me, dammit. EXHAAAALE - I got this 👊.) Am I the only one? “Papa, can you hear me?” 😅

Hi Creator Boost Family… I’m doing a full happy dance right now 😄💃 This feels BIG — not because of the number, but because this time I didn’t stop. I didn’t overthink... I didn’t disappear.... I just kept showing up… and it has been worth it!! A HUGE thank you to @Alexa Saarenoja — the absolute powerhouse who pushed me, guided me, and believed in my YouTube journey even on the days in my mind I was like “bro.. what is happening?” and mostly battling those thoughts by myself😂 Coach… you're a blessing. Truly. 🙏❤️ Thanks for all the Rocket emojis!!🚀 haha And now… 500 is NOT a milestone. I feel... It's a warm up. It's the stretching before the real run. As Robert Frost said: Miles to go before I sleep… But honestly — what is sleep? Sleep is basically me having fun on YouTube and pretending it's rest because this is way too good to stop 🤣🔥 So Happy to have even launched my own Skool Community in this process! Still lots to learn!! I’m just getting started. Rolling… rolling… rolling… (cue Limp Bizkit) Uploading… Learning… Laughing… Manifesting… Let’s Gooooooooooo!!!! 🚀🔥 Thank you everyone for being here.... inspiring me... for watching, for cheering, for vibing with my energy. Next goal: 1,000 — and then we take over the world 😎💫 Onward and upward, family!🤍✨ LOVE.. Ajayy!!! Your Friendly Neighborhood Manifestation Coach!!
