If you'd like to join Skillshare, the first 1,000 people to use the link (or the code lauratry) will get a one-month free trial: skl.sh/lauratry04221 Some notes about this video: 1. There was soooo much I could have included in this video, so I will make some separate videos explaining more. One thing I didn't mention was the money from ad revenue also includes the RUclips membership. I currently have 62 people signed up at £1.99 and RUclips takes 50% of that, although I didn't set the membership up for money, I did it so I could connect with like-minded people directly through the channel. 2. I have been having a monthly call with a Creator Coach (I think that's what he is called) - the calls are quite pricey but Alex keeps me on track and throws suggestions at me. I wanted to include it in this video but it was getting far too long. A nite about this: Alex suggests things that I'm not keen on - a few days pass and I realise he is right 😂 3. I also have a monthly call with a new RUclips friend called Stefan (his channel is ruclips.net/user/Stefanovic92 ) - a super cool guy and extremely talented! We chat about what we have learned, the challenges and the problems we face. It's nice to share a conversation where someone is experiencing the same as me. I'll include him in the next update video. 4. This was the second time I filmed this video. The first time was.... lacklustre. I was bored editing it so started again 😆. All things I hadn't realised was 'a thing.' 5. Today has been an example of how long things take. I just got back from a week-long trip (video about it coming soon) - I had 7 memory cards from 5 cameras, plus the footage filmed on my phone. My computer struggled. Backed it all up, then did a second backup, then the hardrive got full so I had to start a new one. I had planned for this process to take 1 hour, it took 5! Ask any questions you have, I will try and answer as many as possible.
You can’t believe you made it to over 63,000 followers. I can’t believe you don’t have considerably more. You truly brilliant at this and super inspirational. Keep up the great work Laura looking forward to future videos 👍😀
That hair comment was almost a compliment LOL. Some troll shave a lot of free time. I have a friend who has people making videos about her (a whole group of people hating on a 70 year old nice lady) and because i'm her friend and a moderator on her channel (and she only has 30K subs, she's not "THAT BIG") they made a few about me. One of them had my famous neon orange Converse with golden laces on the thuimbnail. It cracked me up 😆Trolls used to really bother me 2-3 years ago but thankfully i've gotten accustomed to it and yes, 99% of comments are great. I actually blabbed a bit abou tthat in the video i'm editing currently. trolls and why sometimes it takes me weeks to check my comments (bad, i know!!)
I know you said one of your goals is to have your own house, but I bet you and your Mom are having so much fun. Cherish the time you have with her. You’re very lucky.
The mega goal is to live on the same road as my mum, or have two connecting houses. We have a really great time here - laugh a lot and Mumma T is so supportive of what I do and striving for.
Almost 37 grand in your first year?! That's great!!!! I am currently working very, very hard on my first (commercially viable) RUclips video. It should be online in less than eight weeks so long as I continue to put in the hours and the effort needed. I really hope this works for me. I am officially unemployed and still claiming benefits. I want to be free from all of that and RUclips looks like the perfect fit for me. I don't want to work in a warehouse anymore. On RUclips I get to do what I love and play to my strengths. Congrats on your success and keep going strong.
I'm honestly so stoked for you, Laura. You've obviously worked so hard and invested so much. It's so great to see your success. I'd love to see you review these every 6 months, and I'm sure it'll be great for you to be able to look back at in years to come too. And I'd be interested to hear more of your SkillShare recommendations! Congrats on their sponsorship!
Hey Michael, thanks so much! I have several videos giving info about RUclips on my list so likely you'll see those within a year. I'll be using Skillshare for some of my videos in the future: speed typing, Rubix cube, Spanish. I also like classes like vision boards. Considering indoor gardening too.
Hi, Laura. This is Hana from S.Korea. I started RUclips channel last Nov, and I feel so lost lately. I am also doing it all by myself, and it makes me feel so lonely sometimes. Today, I watched ur new video and it really motivates me. One day, when my channel is grown bigger, I wish I can make a vid like urs to help someone else. Thank you Laura! I learn a lot from you❤️
Hey Hana, great work for starting the channel. It can be tough to do solo but think of your successes and be happy we have this platform to create on xxxx keep going xxxx
My career type work was offshored a few years ago and I was at an age considerd to old to change careers. Ended up driving a bus 🚌, what a nightmare job. After a while I realised that a certain percentage of the population are going to be nasty, rude and even threatening no matter what environment they were in. If only one in 20. commenters is negative I'm a nasty way then you are doing well. Some people are also living with things like extreme depression and mental illness and cannot see how someone can be having an interesting or worthwhile life at all and are crying out for answers, which is why they are watching the likes of your channel to start with. I find your channel inspiring even though there is no way I could emulate everything you achieve.
Thank you for your comment Stephan, yes, I totally agree with you here, many people living with struggles and in sadness. (I used to be one of them, although not with the negative comments). The thing I say is 'everyone is trying their best" and somehow it relieves the sadness of this comments.
Those memory cards make me shudder... Your bravery and perseverance is really impressive. I appreciate your positivity even when it's a slog. You are a 💎.
Laura, I have only just found you and now binging on your videos! 🤣😂 You are an absolute inspiration and little powerhouse. I can't believe all the stuff you've achieved. 💪💪💪 Well done you! Glad you've found a way to deal with all the negative comments I can imagine how hard that must be. Like you have now realised, any nay sayers I also feel really sorry for because a happy person just simply wouldn't go there. A tip I heard just yesterday was to imagine stripping away the human form/image or imagery surrounding those hurtful words, just leaving the heart, and send that beating heart pure love. ❤️ It ripples through the universe and love conquers all. You have inspired me to start my own RUclips channel now at the age of 54! All about living with dogs the healthy way, the launch of my dog treats co and then eventually expand to doing road trips with them in my truck around Scotland if I can get a sponsor to give me a roof tent by then. 🤔😂 Wish me luck! Xx
Well done you Laura! I am turning 60 this year and I love your videos and they motivate me to try things ( exercising, cold water exposure and working myself up to fasting for more than 20 hours) . Keep going you are great!
Such an amazing story & journey! I've only just came across your channel from the video where you ran one mile every hour for 26 hours which was great! You've also got me cleaning out my Wheelie bin and jumping in it for an ice bath each morning hahaha Really brave of you to go all in with only 889 subs but so glad it's working out 🎉
Dear Laura, you found a style that got you noticed by serious partners/sponsors, and continuously seek out new things to present. The 'bad hair' comment was so elaborate, it made me think that some viewers might be under the influence of substances at the time of writing. Thankfully, most are genuinely interested! Thanks for taking the time and putting in the effort to make your videos interesting and beautiful. (this accidentally went onto the next video, oooops!)
Respect to all those who work for themselves, it’s definitely not the easy option! .. Well done Laura, love your videos! You deserve all the subs!!! Xxx
Laura you are undoubtedly an inspiration. The negative comments seem to be big for anyone that sticks their head above the parapet. Maybe you could invite a few out for an assault course or a bit of bog swimming. It may help them feel better about things. A positive comment barely gets a thumbs up a rude one goes right up there so it's more about getting recognized .
This was such a great video Laura. You make people feel at ease understanding what you are talking about. Great insite into RUclips! It is literally running a business and I really understand your effort completing all the areas necessary to make good content. Mass8ve respect 🙏 x
Thank you LT for saying how much you appreciate us, but we appreciate YOU! My vote for these updates is every 6 months. Thanks again for being such a ray of sunshine on YT🙏❤️
this comment 💖 I really do! These comments are sooooooooo lovely!! I am so grateful (you guys go in my gratitude journal for saying such lovely things)
Congrats on your first anniversary. Well done, it's very encouraging. Hubby and I found you last year from your 7-day fast video. We were both so impressed and its pushed us to start thinking more about our own health. Hubby made a Finnish sauna in our garden, so all we need is our bin full of water and we can do the ice baths then sauna. Plus, I'm loving my Vivo barefoot, wouldn't have found them without you. Can't wait to see your Rubix cube video. I did it last year, very satisfying to complete it. We will be looking out for you xx Jade & Eddie.
Jade and Eddie - you have a sauna in your garden!!!!!!! ARGH! I am soooo envious! It's my dream. Thanks for the nice words. So cool you are trying barefoot and thinking about your health. I really appreciate you follwing along.
Your description of the business and earnings side of RUclips is really interesting so thank you! Also, my current favourite quote is that anger is hurting yourself for someone else’s mistake so the haters gonna hate, but not our issue. 😁
Just thought I'd pause the video to say Congratulations Laura on your journey. You've been such a wonderful inspiration to your followers. I've really enjoyed watching your videos, I've learned a lot from you. You are a very clever person the way you explain everything in detail. You talk precise n slow n get to the point of things. That's what I like about you. I really wish you all the success in your career and I'm looking forward to seeing what you are going to come up with next. Good luck to future progress on your projects, bless you so much, now I've got to get back to the rest of your video. 🎉
I think you are so inspiring to us and you deserve it to get payed for your videos. I love to hear you talk about your work and your future plans, you are so structured and so positive. Shine on! Btw your hair looks beautiful 🤩
There is real honesty in your videos. It is refreshing. It reminds me to do the things that spark my interest and make me feel present in my life. Your videos help me get through the doldrums... I look forward to your next ideas. I'm thinking of running a mile an hour over in a day. Just very challenging with my commitments. Anywho, keep up the videos!
You’re doing amazing, I’ve followed you for a while and watched you growing! Thank you for being honest and showing your experience. I’ve been going over 3 years on RUclips. I am at a disadvantage as I only suit a particular audience, whereas you have something for everyone. I’m really enjoying it though, so anything I get from this is a bonus! If you ever do a video on trying out RUclips tutorials, remember me 🙋🏼♀️ 😆 x
I know I'm late to the party on this one but just wanted to say I'm so happy for you. It's been such a joy seeing your channel grow and someone "normal" making positive changes and succeeding with this RUclips thing (obviously we don't see all the hours that you put in behind the scenes). So pleased for you and seeing sponsors start to roll in. Congratulations! Look forward to seeing where the channel goes next :)
wow Laura !! really well done , I remember watching when you quit your job scary but exciting in all honesty that how we should aim to feel in work , and now 1 year later ,mind you means I still haven't had a go yet , so your tips helped on here grab a camera and get on with it .really pleased for you I haven't had all your vids come up even though im subscribed .look forward to what's next !!onwards and upwards !!!
Inspirational video. I came across your name via a short video on how you went from a beauty salon owner to an atlantic rower. Couldn't help but search for your name to see what you've been up to. Looking forward to watching more of your videos.
LOOOL, that fishing vessel comment cracked me up. Gotta hand it to some trolls, they can be really quite imaginative. If only they'd use that imagination to, yanno, create something. For the record, your hair is one of the many things I dig about you and your inspiring channel, which I just discovered today :)
I've been waiting for this video! So exciting seeing your growth and skills develop. I really appreciate your channel Laura. You are so real and such an inspiration for new RUclipsrs (like myself). I'm excited to try some classes on Skillshare (congrats on the sponsor!!)
Hey Dr Sarah, super cool you have your own channel! I will check it out. super cool you are going to try Skillshare. Those classes I talked about are really really helpful!
Hello 👋 i hope you're safe over there?I hope this year brings happiness prosperity love and peace 💞❤️🕊️🕊️ all over the world 🙏🌍 I'm originally from New Jersey and I am an Engineer where are you from if i may ask???
Yayyyy! Huge success! You have one key advantage over every other RUclipsr. That marvelous accent. It's just made for video and audio. It's like butt-ah mehltin' all ovah yo' hears. Love your videos. Congrats on one year on RUclips. Wow, Time flies!
Hi Laura, I admire anybody with such self determination and willpower like yourself, who are also able to reflect afterwards and say wether it was good, bad, waste of time or a failure. It's right to feel sorry for the negative ones, it's got nothing to do with your videos, they are negative about everything. They just haven't understood that you just want to make other people happy. All the best for the future.
I really appreciate what you are doing. And that you are sharing it. I first saw you in your fasting video and thought “wow, I admire her stamina and commitment.” I think for me, more than anything, it’s witnessing that part of you in action that I find good for me to watch and witness. So thank you.
Positive comment: Wow that is amazing very informative. I watched your rowing across the Atlantic and the part where you rowed for 9 hours making only 4 miles of progress but... others lost 10 miles progress and that tremendous amount of effort with such little amount of progress that is just heart breaking but you kept on going and WON. Then I decided to watch other videos your content is really well put together and I watch to much youtube videos. Keep up the great work.
As a new channel this was really inspiring. I was a full time endurance athlete for a number of years and found your rowing video, then clicked through and found this video. So happy for you :D
Hi Laura great content!! I watch your channel from Greece! As a foreign viewer i just wanted to tell you how well spoken you are and easy to understand. You are also fun to watch and entertaining!! 😃😃
You made me smile at "hip hop dancing"😄 I've tried it many years ago, so hard! Your videos are such great motivation for me, because I can relate to so many things you're doing. Your fasting video was a last drop for me to finally try no eating challenge. I'm learning pull ups too, getting there soon. AND I absolutely love your personality and accent. Thank you, Laura 👍👍 cheers from Ukraine❤
Dear Laura, I found you with your super popular fasting video and since then I am subscriber, love your energy, choice of topics, enjoying to watch you doing stuff with your lovely mom in background, so refreshing in little bit artificial RUclips world, really appreciate your sincere and natural approach. I can't believe there are some nasty comments, but I guess some people are really full of shit and it shows! Keep doing everything you do, you are inspirational and it seems to me very very nice person!
i found you recently and i love every single video! I dont know how to explain, but they just bring more calmness than the average (social) media these days? Thank you and well done!! keep goin!!
As a new, learning youtuber, any comment, positive or negative makes me happy.😂. I haven't had negative comments yet, but have some dislikes. Generally, I don't think one receives negative comments until he or she makes something that makes a meaningful impact AND, bizarrely, until the film you produce is excellent in several ways. You videos are both. I hope the negative comments never bother you again. Your films are brilliant.
Thanks Laura, for your update. I would suggest sending out an update every six months. The information you provided in this video was very informative. Thank you. The first time I saw your videos was the Pushup Challenge and the 7 Day Fast. I believe these types of videos attract viewers as it is impressive how you are able keep focused and motivated! Keep doing what you are doing!
Sooo happy for you!! The first video I remember that I saw of yours was the Tanita scale! I had just gotten a new smart scale and somehow RUclips thought I was still in the market or something haha. I remember being really impressed by how good your video was for a small RUclipsr- very straight forward and informational, with exactly what someone would want to know if they were also looking for the product. I think that has been a cornerstone of your channel that keeps you growing. You take us through your journeys in such a thorough and honest way every time, and you hit upon the things that we’re all wondering about. Cheers! The best is yet to come! 🎉
Amazing, you are a wonderful creator, I'm here since June last year. I started my channel back in January 2021 but my growth has been slow but I will keep trying.
Hello 👋 i hope you're safe over there?I hope this year brings happiness prosperity love and peace 💞❤️🕊️🕊️ all over the world 🙏🌍 I'm originally from New Jersey and I am an Engineer where are you from if i may ask???
Laura, I applaud your courage to chase after a goal- putting all the time, energy and effort into working toward that goal, and truly seeing the beginning rewards of your hard work. So many people will only dream of things they want to do but never turn those dreams into actionable goals, and then later, they have regrets for not taking chances on their dreams. I have no doubt that your channel will continue to grow because your are offering interesting content in a positive and approachable manner. All the best from Donna in Taiwan.
Congrats on one year! I'm happy that it is working out for you. I'm looking forward to seeing your video about learning to ride a unicycle. We had one when I was a kid and I never did learn to ride it. I hope that the second year is even better for you and that you can soon buy your own house.
oh Keith - the unicycle! I have tried it once and it was a disaster! 😆 I am looking forward to properly learning. Thank you about the house. A big dream of mine ⭐️
Hi Laura! Just discovered your channel from looking up benefits of saunas!! I’m pretty sure you’re the Laura from TMC!! Congratulations on your RUclips success.
Long term sub here. Great video and thanks for being so transparent. We can feel the passion. Well done, you deserve all the success! I have a lot of respect for your drive, motivation and discipline.
I love these updates! I vote for every 6 months - they definitely inspire me as a business owner and content creation is a huge part of my business. Loving your channel by the way! 😀
Hi enjoyed watching! Thanks for yr honesty very refreshing. I am 60 and learned to do rubiks cube. Family very impressed. Took me a few weeks. Keep going yr great. X
Nicely done with the video, I'm glad things are going well. I would say do an update in 12 months' time so it does not become a distraction. Good luck to you and keep pushing forward.
Doing great Laura! I admire you and you are an inspiration! I have been following along since you started full-time youtube and it is amazing to see how you have grown. I appreciate the transparency and the vulnerability you showing too! Keep on keeping on Laura!

Some notes about this video:
1. There was soooo much I could have included in this video, so I will make some separate videos explaining more.
One thing I didn't mention was the money from ad revenue also includes the RUclips membership. I currently have 62 people signed up at £1.99 and RUclips takes 50% of that, although I didn't set the membership up for money, I did it so I could connect with like-minded people directly through the channel.
2. I have been having a monthly call with a Creator Coach (I think that's what he is called) - the calls are quite pricey but Alex keeps me on track and throws suggestions at me. I wanted to include it in this video but it was getting far too long. A nite about this: Alex suggests things that I'm not keen on - a few days pass and I realise he is right 😂
3. I also have a monthly call with a new RUclips friend called Stefan (his channel is ruclips.net/user/Stefanovic92
) - a super cool guy and extremely talented! We chat about what we have learned, the challenges and the problems we face. It's nice to share a conversation where someone is experiencing the same as me. I'll include him in the next update video.
4. This was the second time I filmed this video. The first time was.... lacklustre. I was bored editing it so started again 😆. All things I hadn't realised was 'a thing.'
5. Today has been an example of how long things take. I just got back from a week-long trip (video about it coming soon) - I had 7 memory cards from 5 cameras, plus the footage filmed on my phone. My computer struggled. Backed it all up, then did a second backup, then the hardrive got full so I had to start a new one. I had planned for this process to take 1 hour, it took 5!
Ask any questions you have, I will try and answer as many as possible.
You can’t believe you made it to over 63,000 followers. I can’t believe you don’t have considerably more. You truly brilliant at this and super inspirational. Keep up the great work Laura looking forward to future videos 👍😀
Thanks for the nice words Eddie. I'm pleased with the progress.
Just grateful I can do this as a job and make a living from it.

That's a very nice idea for all online trolls

Gracias por seguirme 🙏🏼
I think you are so inspiring to us and you deserve it to get payed for your videos. I love to hear you talk about your work and your future plans, you are so structured and so positive. Shine on! Btw your hair looks beautiful 🤩
There is real honesty in your videos. It is refreshing. It reminds me to do the things that spark my interest and make me feel present in my life. Your videos help me get through the doldrums... I look forward to your next ideas. I'm thinking of running a mile an hour over in a day. Just very challenging with my commitments. Anywho, keep up the videos!
Peter, thank you for the lovely comment. It is words like those that keep me inspired to keep creating 🙏🏼
You are awesome! Keep up the good work!
Congrats on your Success! You deserve it 👍🍻
Thank you for your videos. I was waiting for this one…You are very cute, honest and hard working person and you deserve your success. Good luck 🤞
6 months! I am really obsessed with your channel! You are truly an inspiration! And you just seem so zen… and so comfortable with yourself!
Thank you so much for your lovely comment Klimt 🙏🏼
You’re doing amazing, I’ve followed you for a while and watched you growing! Thank you for being honest and showing your experience. I’ve been going over 3 years on RUclips.
I am at a disadvantage as I only suit a particular audience, whereas you have something for everyone. I’m really enjoying it though, so anything I get from this is a bonus!
If you ever do a video on trying out RUclips tutorials, remember me 🙋🏼♀️ 😆 x
great work on having your channel for 3 years - that is commitment and dedication. Big respect to you!
I know I'm late to the party on this one but just wanted to say I'm so happy for you. It's been such a joy seeing your channel grow and someone "normal" making positive changes and succeeding with this RUclips thing (obviously we don't see all the hours that you put in behind the scenes). So pleased for you and seeing sponsors start to roll in. Congratulations! Look forward to seeing where the channel goes next :)
Thank you for this lovely comment AA.
I am just catching up on members comments so please forgive the delay.
wow Laura !! really well done , I remember watching when you quit your job scary but exciting in all honesty that how we should aim to feel in work , and now 1 year later ,mind you means I still haven't had a go yet , so your tips helped on here grab a camera and get on with it .really pleased for you I haven't had all your vids come up even though im subscribed .look forward to what's next !!onwards and upwards !!!
You’re awesome, keep doing what you do.
Thanks Jamie!
Inspirational video. I came across your name via a short video on how you went from a beauty salon owner to an atlantic rower. Couldn't help but search for your name to see what you've been up to. Looking forward to watching more of your videos.
LOOOL, that fishing vessel comment cracked me up. Gotta hand it to some trolls, they can be really quite imaginative. If only they'd use that imagination to, yanno, create something. For the record, your hair is one of the many things I dig about you and your inspiring channel, which I just discovered today :)
You are genuine, so rare on social media.
I've been waiting for this video! So exciting seeing your growth and skills develop. I really appreciate your channel Laura. You are so real and such an inspiration for new RUclipsrs (like myself). I'm excited to try some classes on Skillshare (congrats on the sponsor!!)
Hey Dr Sarah, super cool you have your own channel! I will check it out.
super cool you are going to try Skillshare. Those classes I talked about are really really helpful!
@@LauraTryUK Awesome, can't wait to try them!
I love your videos… you have a great authentic presence and you deserve all the success and more!
Hello 👋 i hope you're safe over there?I hope this year brings happiness prosperity love and peace 💞❤️🕊️🕊️ all over the world 🙏🌍
I'm originally from New Jersey and I am an Engineer where are you from if i may ask???
Open and honest as a person, you are difficult to beat!
Yayyyy! Huge success! You have one key advantage over every other RUclipsr. That marvelous accent. It's just made for video and audio. It's like butt-ah mehltin' all ovah yo' hears. Love your videos. Congrats on one year on RUclips. Wow, Time flies!
I'm happy for your successful first year, Laura Try! 🌿💪🏽🌷🌄🍒🎶🌻
Love love love your videos, Laura! So glad you’re posting this content that I can’t get anywhere else. Please keep it up!
Absolutely amazing! Congratulations on one year anniversary! You are so level headed it is refreshing. You are an inspiration Laura.
It was courageous of you to go full-time before even hitting 1K! 👍
Can’t believe it’s been a year already. Way to go!
We adore you, LT.
Happy to be a minuscule part of your success.
Keep at it.
Wylis
Hey Wylis, thanks for the smashing questions 👊
Best skillshare pitch/ad I’ve ever watched. Seen dozens and this was the most excellent
hahahaha, thank you. it really was a totally genuine one, maybe that's why you liked it.
would have included it even if they didn't sponsor 😆
Hi Laura, I admire anybody with such self determination and willpower like yourself, who are also able to reflect afterwards and say wether it was good, bad, waste of time or a failure. It's right to feel sorry for the negative ones, it's got nothing to do with your videos, they are negative about everything. They just haven't understood that you just want to make other people happy. All the best for the future.
Be proud of yourself, your a real credit
I really appreciate what you are doing. And that you are sharing it. I first saw you in your fasting video and thought “wow, I admire her stamina and commitment.” I think for me, more than anything, it’s witnessing that part of you in action that I find good for me to watch and witness. So thank you.
Thank you for this lovely comment Petalyn 🙏🏼
@@LauraTryUK I meant it.🌹
Positive comment: Wow that is amazing very informative. I watched your rowing across the Atlantic and the part where you rowed for 9 hours making only 4 miles of progress but... others lost 10 miles progress and that tremendous amount of effort with such little amount of progress that is just heart breaking but you kept on going and WON. Then I decided to watch other videos your content is really well put together and I watch to much youtube videos. Keep up the great work.
As a new channel this was really inspiring. I was a full time endurance athlete for a number of years and found your rowing video, then clicked through and found this video. So happy for you :D
Hi Laura great content!! I watch your channel from Greece! As a foreign viewer i just wanted to tell you how well spoken you are and easy to understand. You are also fun to watch and entertaining!! 😃😃
You made me smile at "hip hop dancing"😄 I've tried it many years ago, so hard! Your videos are such great motivation for me, because I can relate to so many things you're doing. Your fasting video was a last drop for me to finally try no eating challenge. I'm learning pull ups too, getting there soon. AND I absolutely love your personality and accent. Thank you, Laura 👍👍 cheers from Ukraine❤
This channel could be the best channel in RUclips and your hairstyle is awesome 🤩
Your video clips are genuine and down to earth. You put so much work into them and it shows. You deserve every success.
You always make me smile. Ignore any negative comments. You are doing a great job. You are inspirational - well done!
Great job,feeling your positives vibes every time a video pops up 😁
sending them out to you mario 💫
Wow didn't realise so much time and work went into creating videos ! well deserved though well done 👏 your inspirational
I didn't either before I started 😂 And thank you Kevin!
Been here almost from the start and delighted and proud at how you have grown this channel. Well done LT.
Thank you for sticking around so long Paul 🙏🏼
Dear Laura, I found you with your super popular fasting video and since then I am subscriber, love your energy, choice of topics, enjoying to watch you doing stuff with your lovely mom in background, so refreshing in little bit artificial RUclips world, really appreciate your sincere and natural approach. I can't believe there are some nasty comments, but I guess some people are really full of shit and it shows! Keep doing everything you do, you are inspirational and it seems to me very very nice person!
i found you recently and i love every single video! I dont know how to explain, but they just bring more calmness than the average (social) media these days? Thank you and well done!! keep goin!!
As a new, learning youtuber, any comment, positive or negative makes me happy.😂. I haven't had negative comments yet, but have some dislikes. Generally, I don't think one receives negative comments until he or she makes something that makes a meaningful impact AND, bizarrely, until the film you produce is excellent in several ways. You videos are both. I hope the negative comments never bother you again. Your films are brilliant.
Thanks Laura, for your update. I would suggest sending out an update every six months. The information you provided in this video was very informative. Thank you. The first time I saw your videos was the Pushup Challenge and the 7 Day Fast. I believe these types of videos attract viewers as it is impressive how you are able keep focused and motivated! Keep doing what you are doing!
Congratulations on a successful first year!
Thank you for sharing the content and the results of your hard work.
Thank you Jizzy 🙏🏼
Good luck!
You are such an optimistic, joyful, and honest person. ❤
This was so helpful! Thank you so much Laura. 🥰
Sooo happy for you!! The first video I remember that I saw of yours was the Tanita scale! I had just gotten a new smart scale and somehow RUclips thought I was still in the market or something haha. I remember being really impressed by how good your video was for a small RUclipsr- very straight forward and informational, with exactly what someone would want to know if they were also looking for the product. I think that has been a cornerstone of your channel that keeps you growing. You take us through your journeys in such a thorough and honest way every time, and you hit upon the things that we’re all wondering about. Cheers! The best is yet to come! 🎉
Best youtube video Ive watch for at least 8 mths - go you LT!
So earnest, so real, so present , so playful. Thank you !
Thank you soooo much Stacy, such a lovely thing to say.
Amazing, you are a wonderful creator, I'm here since June last year. I started my channel back in January 2021 but my growth has been slow but I will keep trying.
👏👏👏 i so enjoy your challenges and the knowledge you bring to the world...well done on your first full time year!
I am so pleased you enjoy the videos Antoinette 🙏🏼
Hello 👋 i hope you're safe over there?I hope this year brings happiness prosperity love and peace 💞❤️🕊️🕊️ all over the world 🙏🌍
I'm originally from New Jersey and I am an Engineer where are you from if i may ask???
Well done Laura. I first subscribed after watching one of your fasting videos. Love how natural you are. You deserve your success.
Laura, I applaud your courage to chase after a goal- putting all the time, energy and effort into working toward that goal, and truly seeing the beginning rewards of your hard work. So many people will only dream of things they want to do but never turn those dreams into actionable goals, and then later, they have regrets for not taking chances on their dreams. I have no doubt that your channel will continue to grow because your are offering interesting content in a positive and approachable manner. All the best from Donna in Taiwan.
Omg Laura I’ve only just watched this and saw my little shout out 😂😂 so funny. You’re doing bloody fantastic woman. Hopefully see you soon x
Thanks for the update and good luck! "Charlie knows..."
Charlie always knows 😉
I love your honesty and true grit! Keep it going!
The first video i saw you had less than a thousand subs, well done keep it up.
Congrats on one year! I'm happy that it is working out for you. I'm looking forward to seeing your video about learning to ride a unicycle. We had one when I was a kid and I never did learn to ride it. I hope that the second year is even better for you and that you can soon buy your own house.
oh Keith - the unicycle! I have tried it once and it was a disaster! 😆 I am looking forward to properly learning.
Thank you about the house. A big dream of mine ⭐️
Very nice! I appreciate the honesty and transparency in your videos. Keep going
cheers Lee 👊
Hi Laura! Just discovered your channel from looking up benefits of saunas!! I’m pretty sure you’re the Laura from TMC!! Congratulations on your RUclips success.
Long term sub here. Great video and thanks for being so transparent. We can feel the passion. Well done, you deserve all the success! I have a lot of respect for your drive, motivation and discipline.
Thank you for doing this. You are doing so well. Keep being you.
I love these updates! I vote for every 6 months - they definitely inspire me as a business owner and content creation is a huge part of my business. Loving your channel by the way! 😀
Well done Laura! Congratulations on your first year as a full time RUclipsr! You're videos are awesome!
Thank you Desiré 🙏🏼
I appreciate your transparency and vulnerability. I enjoy your channel, and hope you have all the success you want.
You are so kind, thank you Brian 🙏🏼

Well done Laura, stay true to yourself. Your doing so well and your videos are always so interesting to watch. Best of luck for year two..
Awesome job so far! It’s great how open you have been and how motivating it is to see you taking this on!
Thanks for following along Will 🙏🏼
Nicely done with the video, I'm glad things are going well. I would say do an update in 12 months' time so it does not become a distraction.
Good luck to you and keep pushing forward.
I like your style Muyiwa - I was thinking 12 months too. Means lots of decent info too. 6 months goes fast!
@@LauraTryUK I must ask do you have a new goal in mind for the next 12 to 18 months?
@@muyiwaadebiyi5100 To keep making videos 😀
Great video and well done. For me I would like every 6 months. Here’s to 100,000,keep up the great work.
Doing great Laura! I admire you and you are an inspiration! I have been following along since you started full-time youtube and it is amazing to see how you have grown. I appreciate the transparency and the vulnerability you showing too! Keep on keeping on Laura!
