So excited to get started. Alexa has been a huge inspiration — since I discovered her channel 24 hours ago 😂. I really wish I could have found Alexa earlier. I know she’s outgrown me and gotten a lot more expensive than I could afford right now anyway but I would’ve loved to have had her be my coach. Her generosity and authenticity really resonated with me — as I’m sure it does with many others. In some ways I felt like I’m hearing part of my own story. I’m a 46 year old dad of two young boys (6 and 9), lost my job as a software engineer last month and feel obsolete and unexcited about the state of the industry. Add to that my wife just finishing 16 weeks of chemo. It’s been a tough moment for sure. And it’s far from over. But I’m an optimist and want to look forward and I’m DONE relying on a “role” to ensure my family is taken care of. I’ve been thinking about YouTube for a long time but after watching hours (literally) of Alexa’s content last night I realised this is what I NEED to do next. I tend to be obsessive and focused once I set a goal so I’m so excited to get into it. I also know the value of surrounding myself with like minded and amazing individuals like yourselves but I hope I can also be a contributor to this amazing community. Right now I’m working on my YouTube home page. Banner, profile pic, description etc. I also have an idea about what I want to share for my first video. Nothing special just an introduction I guess. I need to get started and get comfortable. If anyone has advice for or against this I’d love to hear it though. I want to help others long term but right now I need to learn myself so my ears are open. I do have prior experience with technology and also design, business transformations and leadership. So I’m hoping this will eventually tie in somehow and provide me some unique proposition but for now I just want to get started. I’m now unemployed, have maybe 12 months to make this work. I know there are no guarantees but I’m all in. Here we go!

Hi there beautiful people! My name is Nori. Born and raised in Japan, and I came to the states 20 years ago. Now I live here with my family. I am a visual artist. I get a lot of inspiration from nature and mostly turn that into illustrations with ink and watercolor. I am also passionate about inner work of getting closer and closer to our own nature, soul or whatever else you would like to call it, through creativity, expression, and exploration of ancestral lineages and connection to nature. I have a goal to create a life for myself and family to live both in Japan and America close to nature while I create values for others by transformation through creative and inner work explorations. I feel very honored to be in the same circle as all of you, authentically creating values by being you! Thank you and I am so excited to join.

Thought I would say howdy from Cheney, WA! I'm new here and honored to be with other creators. My business journey over the last 32 years has been about as whimsical, whacky and fun as is legally possible. I have been a builder of many things but the most important of all has been relationships. I'm looking forward to meeting some of you and learning from your experiences as a YouTube creator.

I am a Certified Senior Advisor and Owner of CarePatrol of Oklahoma City with almost 30 years of Medicare experience. So of course my niche is senior stuff. Mostly Medicare, the new Medicare GUIDE program and Long Term Care.

Thank You for inviting me to join your community. I stopped counting the number of countries I’ve traveled to after country number 20. I was named village nanny growing up in Africa. Graduated from nursing school at 50. I enjoy teaching and sharing knowledge.
