Before we rush into the next goal, the next upload, the next milestone—let’s pause for a moment. Gratitude for how far you’ve already come. Gratitude for every viewer and subscriber who chose to spend their time with you. Gratitude for YouTube being a free platform where we get to share our thoughts, skills, experiences, and stories—without permission, gatekeepers, or limits. It’s easy to normalize this. But zoom out for a second. We’re living in a time where we can connect with brilliant minds all over the world instantly. Learn from each other. Teach. Build. Create impact from our living rooms. That’s not small. That’s extraordinary. Today, just take a breath and acknowledge it.You’re not behind. You’re participating in something incredibly rare—and powerful. Grateful for this space. Grateful for this community. Grateful for you all and wishing you a happy holiday season.🤍

Most creators don’t struggle because they aren’t capable. They struggle because part of them is still holding back. You can be posting consistently. You can be learning. You can be “doing the work.” And still not be fully all in. Because your actions might say yes……but your inner dialogue, energy, and self-trust are quietly saying no. Here’s the pattern I see over and over: We were taught to distrust ourselves. To override intuition with logic. To look outside ourselves for permission, certainty, and validation. That conditioning doesn’t just affect YouTube. It affects your creativity. Your confidence. Your ability to lead. Your willingness to be seen. You cannot move forward fully if you don’t fully believe you’re allowed to. One small practice I want to give you today (no fixing, no forcing): - The Somatic Truth Test Sit still for a moment. Take one deep breath. Say to yourself: “I’m not ready yet.” Don’t analyze it. Just notice your body. Does your chest expand or tighten? Does your breath deepen or shorten? Do you lean forward or pull back? Now simply name it: “This thought feels expansive” or “This thought feels contracting.” Now try: “This is the direction I’m meant to go.” Notice again. Name it. Your body already knows the truth. Your mind just likes to argue with it. If you start listening here — even in this small way — you stop abandoning yourself.And everything begins to shift from that point forward. Try this with your next video idea...does it feel expansive or contracting? I’d love to know: What did you notice when you tried this? Expansive or contracting? Drop it below 👇

I’ve started my own Skool community called The Crochet Circle (3 guesses what it’s for… 😂🧶) We’ve just reached 15 members — and what I’m even more excited about is that people are actually engaging! We’ve got comments, conversations, WIPs being shared… it’s starting to feel like a real community already 🥰 I’ve still got a lot to learn — building out the classroom, trying new ideas, figuring everything out as I go — but I’m loving the vibe that’s forming. I'm excited to see how it grows and develops.

As of about a few minutes ago I have 1000 subscribers, it feels a bit surreal, I've been aiming for this "magic" number for so long that I'm not sure I believe it!. It is definitely a win! onwards and upwards!

Drop your October goals in the comments — let’s put them in writing and hold each other accountable.
