Excited to bring you this exciting video showing my progress to date. It is my vision board coming to life. Thank you for watching and all of your love. @Life With Lissette 🦋
I too am a woman over 50, and I must say that I really appreciate your authentic, organic approach. Like you, I love being me and expressing life lessons that I have learned and educating my audience. Your post has now made me feel that making more videos will be easier by just opening up and sharing general, heartfelt stories as well. Love that so much. Also, love your tip to engage with those who comment on our channel. Nice tip. Thanks for sharing and being your natural self. Beautiful post.
I have been introducing everyone Im close to, to start a RUclips channel. It’s not a get rich quick scheme you have to put it the work but it is worth it! I started one month now, managing 3 channels 😭 not monetized as yet but they are all doing good 👍 it’s not about Ig but when your breakthrough comes. Keep going!
I commend you for starting 3 channels. One is enough for me for now. That is amazing. Kudos to you for keeping up with all of them. And you're right -- it is work but worth every minute spent. Congratulations to you. Wishing you much success with all of them. Thank you for watching. I appreciate your support. 🦋
Congratulations on your channel! Wishing you so much success and abundance. We are all in this together. Thank you for watching. I appreciate your support. 🦋
As a woman over 70, I realized that I fall into the category of women over 50. 😊 I have just discovered your channel and I enjoyed this video. And your best advice, at least the one that I needed to hear today, was to not overthink! ❤ Thank you.
Overthinking in general robs us of so much joy. My hope for you in this new year is that you give yourself grace, especially when you find yourself over-“anything”. Thank you for watching and your support. Happy New Year! 🦋
As a brand new RUclipsr (first video last week), this was so refreshing to see. No fancy edits, just a heartfelt chat. I just LOVE your sincerely and passion. Thank you ❤
Congratulations on your first video. That is awesome. There is no time like the present to have a channel. Thank you for watching. I appreciate your support. 🦋
Congratulations Lissette! I'm so happy your video came up on my feed. I really needed to hear someone say "don't niche down" and "stop looking at your analytics too often". I litteraly just hide my analytics tool as I tend to overthink and then start questioning myself. This was such a needed boost for me. Congrats again!
I am so happy you found value in my video. Trying to niche down is a way of boxing people in and not letting them shine in their authenticity. I also believe that YT is welcoming new approaches, strategies and creators that can bring in a different genre of topics & subscribers. At least that has been my personal experience. Wishing you all the best in your new channel. Keep uploading and sharing. Thank you for watching. I appreciate your support. 🦋
I can see how proud you are about your RUclips channel. Congratulations! You have given me the encouragement to keep going. Sending positive thoughts your way from a fellow 50 plus year old women working on growing a RUclips channel. ❤️
You most definitely MUST keep going. There is a whole community waiting for you. Sending you all of the positive vibes. You got this sis. Keep pushing thru. Thank you for watching. I appreciate your support. 🦋
Thank you so much for sharing. I have a new YT channel myself and it's going alright. I have to work on it daily just like you do and let it happen. I'm so happy to be apart of this community.
This community is absolutely amazing. Don't give up. Keep recording, uploading and connecting with your community. Congratulations on your new channel. Thank you for watching. I appreciate your support. 🦋
As a small RUclipsr, I just had to take a moment to say how happy I am for you. May you continue to see amazing levels of success on your channel. I just subscribed. ❤
Lissette, You are amazing. I was just scrolling and I came across your video. I just wanted to say that to you. Thank you for putting that out there. More people out here need more encouragement.
I too am over 50! This over 50 thing must be a trend for youtube right now. I created one 5 years ago with tutorials just for fun but now im ready to update my channel and get going. Thanks for your courage to inspire
There is no better time than the present to be 50+ and start/re-start a channel. The algorithm loves us. Thank you for watching. I truly appreciate your support. 🦋
You are so right. Pausing to take note of every single milestone, good or not so good, is the key to enjoying this process. Thank you for watching. I appreciate your support. 🦋
That’s an awesome story congratulations it is your time sis!! I’m 55!work full time and I started my channel over the summer with digital diy and digital marketing and I’m so happy for my 250 subs!! It’s so gratifying we ARE WORTH IT!! Blessings!!
Woot woot! Congratulations on your new channel. Wishing you all the best in success and growth. Keep uploading and stay close to your community. Thank you for watching. I appreciate your support. 🦋
Yes sis. Keep pushing and trust the process. Learn from the reasons you were de-monetized and keep it moving. You have a whole community here to support. Best of luck to you. Thank you for watching and your support. Happy New Year! 🦋
Thanks so much for sharing this with us. You inspire so many of us. Here's to your continued success and growth. I am sending you lots of LoVe, Light, and Good Vibes in the moments of now.💜🌱🐛🦋
Speak of monetizing your channel as if it already happened. You will monetize your channel. Believe it, claim and manifest it. It's yours. Thank you for watching. I truly appreciate your support. 🦋
Congratulations on getting monetized! You are so authentic and true to yourself and it shines in your video! I also applaud you for making a 24 minute video, I just started and it’s so hard for me to get to even 10 minutes 😅 you are inspiring me and pushing me to be better, so thank you for that ❤
When you speak about something that is coming from your heart, it is hard to keep it short. I like to vary my video lengths which also helps with making sure I don't niche myself down. You got this!!! Just keep showing up. Thank you for watching. I appreciate your support. 🦋
@ its hard for me to speak from the heart, at least so far, since I’m so anxious while recording 😫 but I hope to break out of my shell and continue improving over time! Keep up the amazing content!! :)
Hi Lissette, thank you so much this video!!! I'm on my way to start a RUclips channel (53 years, living in Spain...). What you said about no niching your channel, is the thing I needed to heard; I'm having a hard time trying to "delimit" what I'm going to be talking about, and your comment resonated with me in a very special way, it was what I needed to keep going. Congratulation! 👏👏Thank you ❤
I am 52 and just recently restarted recording. I appreciate you for sharing the details of what has helped you because it can get overwhelming at times to know if you’re doing the right thing. I feel like you with the niche thing. I just want to help women in midlife manifest their own dream life. A life they desire to live and not one someone else has designed for them. So thank you for being present. It’s encouraging 💛
There is no time like the present to have a channel. Sounds like you have a great messaging and there is a whole community of midlife women waiting to hear from you. We are all in this together. Thank you for watching. I appreciate your support. 🦋
I have YT taking the taxes out but I am also putting some on the side to be on the safe side. Everyone handles it differently. I am still new to this but can give an updated video once I have a few consecutive months of revenue to share something a little more substantial. Thank you for watching. I appreciate your support. 🦋
I love that you took the time to share. This means a lot to me being new to yt! These are new tips I have not heard from anyone. Let’s see how it goes. Thank you
You are so welcome. Everyone's journey is different but it is my personal opinion that RUclips is looking for channels to do things different, stir up the algorithm a little bit and bring a new fresh way of reaching different genres of people. Congratulations on your new channel. Stay focused and keep uploading videos. Thank you for watching. I appreciate your support. 🦋
Thank you for your videos, Lisette! I really enjoy the fact that there are no ‘bells and whistles’ to your videos, no jerky camera movements or zoom-ins and outs. This now 61 year old post-meno woman appreciates this fact 😂 You’re a true inspiration ☺️🌸
Awwww you’re so sweet. Those zooms give me the zoomies. Some of the graphics catch me off guard and I end up paying attention to the graphic and not what is being said which means I have to go back and listen to it again. It can be frustrating at times. I am sure that one day I will learn them and may have some in my figure videos but I will do them while keeping in mind my own triggers when I see them on other videos. There’s beauty in simplicity. Thank you so much for watching and I appreciate your support. 🦋
Thank you, Lissette! I started a podcast at 50 and feel a lot of the same ways. I don't know how to do it all, but I need to be authentic to myself. And sometimes all the bells and whistles of RUclips are too much! I love that you took the risk and now are inspiring other women : )
You are so welcome. What a sweet comment. Bells and whistles are noisy and distractors. Show up as YOU and it will come thru in your videos. There is a whole community waiting for you. I mean it when I say that there is no time like the present to have a channel, especially if you are 50+! Thank you for watching. I appreciate your support. 🦋
Congratulations on your channel! Wishing you all the best in success and abundance. You got this sis. Keep uploading and shining. Thank you for watching. I appreciate your support. 🦋
Thank you for this video! I’m inspired! I’ve been down this same exact rabbit hole of procrastination and after watching your video my heart is racing from pure excitement! Just this morning I asked our Lord to give me a sign about my RUclips journey and as I’m getting ready for bed tonight I put the tv on YT and big as day there you were! You was all the confirmation I needed! Thank you for the kind words and motivation! You have a new sub!❤🎉keep’um coming!😊
Amen sis! There is NO time like the present to start a channel. Don't give fear, procrastination or overthinking a single more ounce of time or energy. Lean in to that fear, record & upload. The hardest part is uploading that first video. You got this! You are worthy! God speed!! Thank you for watching. I appreciate your support. 🦋
They will definitely find you. Keep recording and uploading. Wishing you all the best on your new channel. Thank you for watching. I appreciate your support. 🦋
"This is so inspiring! I'm 50, and I never thought I'd have the courage to start a RUclips channel. But I did it! I launched my channel in December about people being confused during their awakening and needing answers and direction, and it's been amazing..." Good luck with your channel! I'm confident you'll continue to grow and inspire others. ❤
Woot Woot!! Congrats to you for starting your channel. That is amazing. There is a whole community that needs and wants to hear from you. Wishing you all the best on your channel. Thank you for watching. I truly appreciate your support. 🦋
Hola, Lissette! "If you can't find it, just be it!" Here's another "IT"! Nice to meet you! Your video is very inspiring and I TOTALLY agree with everything you mentioned about your comments. They took the time (their most valuable asset) to view your video, or maybe even 5, 10, 12. The least they deserve is a ❤. Kudos to you for recognizing that and, even more so, benefiting from it without even knowing it. You've earned yourself yet ANOTHER sub and I just can't wait to go down the rabbit hole! 😆 P.S. Love the pixie cut! 😍
Awww...what a sweet and thoughtful comment. It made my whole heart smile. Staying connected is what keeps me showing up and connected. This is a wonderful community that I am blessed and grateful to be a part of on a daily basis. Thank you for watching. I appreciate your support. 🦋
Hi Lissette, thank you so much for this video! I feel like we share the same sentiment. I almost gave up on my channel until I came across your video. Being a woman over 50 like yourself, starting a RUclips channel has been a bit overwhelming. Thank you for the vote of confidence and God speed your growth in all aspects.
You got this! Don't give up! Record, upload and continue to show up. We are all in this together. Wishing you much success on your new channel. Thank you for watching. I appreciate your support. 🦋
Yessss....that's what I'm talking about. Let's go!!! There is no time like the present to be on RUclips. Thank you for watching. I appreciate your support. 🦋
Thank you so much for this video. My husband and I just started our channel a couple of months ago and it has been a journey. I overthink a lot and I’ve been trying to learn everything. Your video was very genuine and has made it feel a little lighter. Keep being uniquely you it is very much appreciated!!
This is such a lovely video and an encouraging one. Thank you for taking the time to re-record it for a 3rd time. I'm 41, and I resonate with your energy. It was an easy subscribe for me! Thank you once again, and well done on growing so fast! I started almost a year ago and gained just over 200 subs since. I know it's not a race, but a journey. It's inspiring to see what's possible. Thank you and all the best on your journey 🙏 p.s. Loving the pixie haircut 💇♀️ "A woman who cuts her hair is about to change her life" -Coco Chanel 👋😊
I am so happy that you found inspiration in my video. Congratulations on your new channel. Continue to upload and stay connected to your community. I LOVE that quote! And it is so true. This pixie cut is showing me so many lessons. Even I am shocked at how much I have grown in these last 4 months. I can't wait for your channel to grow and be successful. Thank you for watching. I appreciate your support. 🦋
Right on, Lissette! The almighty algorithm brought your “AF” video to my feed a couple of weeks ago, and I loved it. I turn 55 in March and your videos inspire me. And I’m Hispanic, so I appreciate seeing someone who looks like me and says “Adiós.” All good wishes for more creativity, satisfaction, and monetization!
Yes sis - we are in our prime. Happy Birthday to you!! Such a sweet comment. 2025 is going to be our year. Thank you for watching and your continued support. 🦋
I pray that my mom finds this video and starts her channel. I want so much for her that she says she wants. While nothing’s guaranteed in terms of quick monetization, I shared that she’ll get to express herself and offer help to others as she’s been claiming is her desire, and then she gets to potentially and eventually get Adsense $ from her work. Thanks for sharing your experience and encouragement.
Yesss let’s get momma bear started on her RUclips channel. There is no time like the present. This is the sweetest comment ever. Tell her there is a whole community waiting for her. Thank you for watching. I appreciate your support. 🦋
Thank you so much for this video. I am over 60. You have really inspired me to step out of my comfort zone and push forward to create my vision board and realize my dream. Wishing you much continued Success!🎉🎉🎉
Vision boards are POWERFUL! I am so excited for you and all of the amazing things that are going to happen in your life in 2025. Thank you for watching. I appreciate your support. 🦋
This was such a reassuring post. You popped up on my feed and I’m definitely under 50! But still want to thank you so much because this was so helpful. You are a beautiful being, may you keep blossoming in life and with your channel 🌺
I loved this Lissette. I’m a 37 yr old man from the UK, so not your target audience 😅 However, I took A LOT away from what you shared, especially as I literally just had a similar realisation “don’t niche me down” and made my first video today after years of battling that same mental block - it felt liberating. I also realllly love the fact that you’re committed to replying and chatting with people, that’s a huge part of my own personal values too. Anyway, thank you for your video. Thoroughly loved it 🙏❤️
Wow! From the UK!!! That's pretty awesome. It makes me so happy that you found value in my video. I have found that niches box people in and really doesn't allow them to be creative. RUclips has too much of the same and as a community platform, it has definitely been welcoming of new ideas, approaches and ways of connecting to different audiences. At least that has been the case in my personal experience. You won't know until you try so kudos & congratulations to you for starting your channel. Wishing you all the best. Thank you for watching. I appreciate your support. 🦋
successful youtubers are good storytellers. this is my first time watching a video of yours, but i absolutely love your delivery & aura. “if you can’t find it, be it” are the words im taking into this day as i continue to create encouraging black women like myself! thank you for your advice! (also loving the advice about not over complicating things and simply hitting record)
Reading your comment made my heart smile. Congratulations on your channel and yes, continue to record and post content that speaks to your heart. It comes thru when folks are watching your videos. We are all in this together for support & encouragement. Wishing you all the best for success, growth and abundance. You are worthy! Thank you for watching. I appreciate your support. 🦋
I re-record my videos but because I don’t like my first take. 😂😂 the more I record the more confidence I have. Thank you for this advice! I’m going strong with my channel and loving the journey of bullring my ‘Jeanie’ community! ❤🎉
We all have different things that work for us and I am so happy that you found what works best for you. I wanted to offer my advise about recording and uploading because too often, most people get stuck in the recording piece of the journey. It's an area when a lot of folks get stuck or paralyzed from fear at the thought of recording themselves Best of luck to you for continued growth of your channel. ♥
Thank you for sharing! Congrats on getting monetized! I am in my mid sixty’s. I am 66 but I loved how you gave the tips that helped you get where you are. Also, about not trying to fit in to be accepted. I took down notes be and stay consistent, support other RUclips channels, no niche its okay. ❤🙏 Much continued success with your channel.
thank you for your transparency and yes, celebrate that $380 because its what being on the right track looks like with more to come!! and I am listening to your other numbers and this is so encouraging!!! Congratulations!!!
I absolutely love this community. RUclips has so much to offer and requires you to stick with it. I am happy to hear that this has given you encouragement to keep pushing forward. I can’t wait for your channel to soar. I just subscribed!!! Thank you for your sweet comment. 🦋
Congratulations on your new channel and for taking the risk. Wishing you all the best in success and abundance. There is no time like the present to have a channel. Thank you for watching. I appreciate your support. 🦋
Hi Lissette! So happy I came across your channel! I’m really enjoying your content. You know what resonated with me the most? Two things. The first, I completely agree that watching the analytics can be a rabbit hole!😂 the second, I’m thankful for the reminder you gave about pinning the comment at the bottom of the video. For some reason, I stopped doing it after my 2nd or third video. I forgot all about it. Keep putting out the great content. Our community needs it! 😊
Hello there! A rabbit hole it most definitely is and hard to come out of it once we are deep inside. STaying connected is far more important, in my personal humble opinion. Other larger channels may disagree but we will deal with that when DO become large channels here in these RUclips streets. I am so happy that you are finding value in my content and left me a comment to confirm. Thank you for watching. I truly appreciate your support. 🦋
I never thought of commenting on videos I post, thanks for that idea! Congratulations on your success! I’m happy for you! My channel is a month old and I’ve been a little down that I’m only at 134 subscribers when other channels are growing so fast. I APPRECIATE every subscriber! I appreciate your video b/c you didn’t go on and on about your analytics! I’m really tired of that! Again, congratulations on your success! Your pixie cut is gorgeous!
Congratulations on your new channel and for taking the risk. You not "only" at 134 subscribers...that is 134 people that have heard your story and want to hear more. Definitely engage in the comments. It will serve you well. Thank you for watching. I truly appreciate your support. 🦋
Hi Lissette, Congrats, It's refreshing to listen to a content creator who isn't talking 1000 mph. So we can be cool, calm, and collected. I'm really looking forward to joining the club soon.
Yes we can most definitely be the triple C (cool, calm & collected)! I love that. There is no time like the present to start a channel. Go for it! You are worthy. Thank you for watching. I appreciate your support. 🦋
Congratulations! You got monetized pretty quick. I see it is possible. I’m always starting, but never do. You popped up on my feed. I’m going to watch your other videos. It was very informative and the haircut is cute! I just subscribed…
Record. Upload. Done! You will never know until you try. There is no time like the present to start a channel. Stay the course and trust the process. Thank you for watching. I appreciate your support. 🦋
As a new content creator over 50, I just want to thank you for being so real and sharing your success. I do have to have a niche, since it's the purpose for my channel (to support abandoned cats in my neighborhood) but I hope to add a playlist of vlog style videos where I can talk about other things. Now more than ever, folks are looking for genuine connections. I love that you are here!
I love that we have found each other. There are so many pet/animal lovers in this world that will get a lot benefit from what you have to share. Your channel is definitely something that will do extremely well. Congratulations to you. Continue sharing and connecting. Thank you for watching. I truly appreciate your support. 🦋
I love your honesty! Not overthinking is the biggest challenge, but some of the simplest videos perform the best which is interesting. People want reality💕💕💕. Thanks for your insight!
Overthinking will steal your joy and keep you standing still. We are created to move, grow, learn and reach! Give yourself the grace and space to do so!! Thank you for watching. I appreciate your support. 🦋
This video makes me so happy! Thank you for saying not to worry about a niche. I have so many things I'd like to do and I have more or less decided to go with the flow and see what happens... Your video gives me the confirmation I needed to have confidence in my ability to succeed by simply being me
My personal opinion is that niche's box you in and make new channels feel stuck. I am so happy that you found this video helpful. Thank you for watching. I appreciate your support. 🦋
With 15 videos, it is definitely time. No longer keeping those to yourself. Upload and watch your channel grow. There is a whole community waiting to hear from you. Thank you for watching. I appreciate your support. 🦋
This is very inspiring. Thank you for sharing . Im just about to start my channel ,taking it easy trying to figure myself out. Youre an inspiration and huge congrats on getting monetized 🎉
Keep leaning in to your feeling and recording videos that speak to those moments. Record, upload and let the algorithm work its magic. There is a whole community waiting for you. Thank you for watching. I appreciate your support. 🦋
Súper grateful for you sharing! You touched several of my issues holding me back. I learned so much About the youtube process that no one eles has shared. Congrats on your success! You have great business intuition 😊
Awww so sweet of you. Keep pushing forward. Don’t get tripped up by all of the noise. Keep it simple but consistent. You got this!! Thank you so much for watching and I appreciate your support. 🦋
You just got a new subscriber,your story gave me peace and encouragement to start my channel,i have been over thinking the whole thing for a very long time now and i feel so choked.
No more overthinking. It will rob you of your joy, blessings and growth. It will keep you standing still if you keep feeding it energy. Let's turn that around and let's get started on that channel. There is no time like the present to grow & share. You are worthy. Thank you for subscribing & watching. I appreciate your support. 🦋
Oh Lisette, you are such a huge inspiration to me! Thank you so much for this video. Like you I got motivated by Dough Dash back in November. So I’m only 8 weeks in. This was awesome! I’m 55 and a Latina! ❤
Latina power let's go! Congratulations on your new channel. How exciting. Wishing you all the best in success and abundance. I can't wait to hear how your channel has skyrocketed. There is no time like the present to have a channel. Kudos to you. Thank you for watching. I appreciate your support. 🦋
Your "5 Things" video is how I found you! I started my channel 10 months ago, and through encouragement from another RUclipsr gained many subscribers. But I let self-doubt creep in and hold me back. Lack of consistent content caused my channel to stagnate. Now, I'm promising myself to improve my consistency, and really think about the direction I want my channel to take. Congratulations on your FAST monetization, and thank you for sharing this with us!
Keep going even if all you upload is a quick 3 minute video. Consistently, engagement, interaction are key. You got this. Wishing you so much success and abundance. Thank you for watching and I appreciate your support. 🦋
I am so very Happy for you! And,I've Never heard anyone mention the preset tab!( That I figured existed)and,I Love when the creator,interacts in the chat! Very Informative Video! Great Video!
Yes they are pre typed and you can just click on them to send a response. They are created to “save time”. I get the reason for them being there but I’m just not a fan, personally. RUclips is about creating and curating a community and that has been my goal from day one. 🦋
Thanks so much for your video! Today is the day I am going to post my first RUclips video. I have been trying for longer than I want to admit! Your honest sharing comes as a validation that today has to be the "day ". Thank you. I wish you continued success. ❤
YES today is the day. Release that fear and show it who is boss. You are worthy. Overthinking is robbing you of your joy, abundance and blessings. The hardest part is uploading your first video. You got this! You can do hard things. Thank you for watching. I appreciate your support. 🦋
This is such a great video with REAL advice! Especially giving support and encouragement AND taking the time to write ✍️ to the folks that comment on your videos. These are tips I haven’t heard before. I appreciate you! Thanks and new RUclipsr and my videos will launch in 2 weeks. You have encouraged me to START ❤❤ I am subscribing to your channel ❤
Congratulations on the soon to be launch of your channel. That's so exciting. Once you upload your first video, your nerves will start to lessen. Just keep posting, sharing and commenting. Trust and believe that your channel will grow. You got this. Thank you for watching & subscribing. I appreciate your support. 🦋
Your video just popped up on my feed for a reason...as a struggling youtuber, it was so encouraging to hear your story of getting monetized...! That is truly amazing! Congratulation! Thank you for sharing🙏
Stick with it and trust the process. Don't give up. There is a community waiting to hear from you. Thank you for watching. I appreciate your support. 🦋
I am very close to being monetized and told myself to STOP looking at the analytics and just keep going and don't overthink, so hearing you say it is confirmation, along with not being so concerned with all the flashy things on the screen. I am not techy and that is what intimidated me with youtube before.
Right there at the end where you were basically saying to TAKE ACTION. That's what caught my attention the most! (Though I love and appreciate that you took the time to outline all of these things and share them with us!) I just keep thinking lately how I have spent so many years learning and trying to work things out in my head, but the trick is to actually TRY. To experiment. To take action and then adjust! I can't make progress by thinking things to death (and believe me, I have tried lol). Thanks again for another great one Lissette! I'm glad you said yes and took action. 🙂
Yessss…taking action is the key to unlocking your potential of your channel. It sounds to me like you are ready so just rip off the bandaid and go for it. You won’t know until you try. There is a whole community here waiting for you to share it all. I mean it when I say that there is no time like the present to be on RUclips. You got this!! Thank you for watching and I appreciate your support. 🦋 Happy New Year!!
Hi Lissette, you are doing a good job. Congratulations! With the videos this happened to me, too. Too loud, no sound...I just started my youtube channel, I am German retiree who moved to France some years ago. Good luck and all the best from South of France. Thanks for your video.
Wow!! South of France -- that is AMAZING! Congratulations on your retirement and starting your channel, both exciting! That no sound thing drove me bananas. Wishing you all the best on your new RUclips journey. Thank you for watching. I truly appreciate your support. 🦋
I needed this ! This morning and thank you for sharing this! I appreciate that you don’t have a gatekeeping heart. 💗 Videos like this is so inspiring ❤ God bless your Journey and you’re haircut is Stunning
Awww...what a sweet comment. You are so welcome. Gatekeeping helps no one and that goes against my primary purpose for starting a channel. Thank you for watching. I truly appreciate your support. 🦋
I love this! I’m not 50 yet, but the advice is incredibly valuable. I’m also not a big fan of niching down-I’m more of a free spirit who likes to explore different things.
Thank you for your diligence. Determination delivered a meaningful message. Your “5 Things at 54….” Video it was captured my attention. It was the first of your videos I viewed. Blessings!
@chanelcurry313 you're making me tear up! Such a sweet comment. I am so happy we found each other. I hope you enjoyed that video. Thank you for watching and for your support. It means the world to me. ♥
Hi Lisette, this is a very nice video. Congratulations on your rapid success. I’m also a woman over 50. I started a BookTube channel a few weeks ago. I definitely need to stop overthinking, make my videos and upload 😂! Dough Dash is very inspirational I agree. Best wishes ❤
Overthinking will rob you of everything you deserve and want. Lean in to that fear. I love that idea of a BookTube!! Wishing you success and abundance. Thank you for watching and I appreciate your support. 🦋
That’s awesome, hearing about your journey and getting that first monetized payment means everything. At that point, it’s not about the money but more so what it took to get there. Good for you
I have enjoyed every high and low so far. Never take any of it for granted for this opportunity to share and connect. Thank you for watching. I appreciate your support. 🦋
Congratulations! Thank you for sharing what worked for you. It validated that I'm on the right track. The gurus were discouraging because their advice did not resonate with me. It felt like I had to be a phoney to succeed. So I chose to just be me and be grateful if each video just reached one person.
Congratulations on your channel. RUclips is a wonderful community. There is no time like the present! Thank you for watching and I appreciate your support. 🦋
Consistency is key but also staying close to your community. Best of luck to you in your new YT journey. Thank you for watching. I appreciate your support. 🦋
@@LifewithLissettethank you! Totally commented from the wrong account but I’m getting it together😊… you’ve hit the nail on the head & spoke some many thoughts I’ve had in my head… I’m committed to less over thinking & just having fun with this. Thank you sooo much Lissette! 🥂 to all your success and what’s to come!
Congratulations 👏🏼 on your monetization....I am also on RUclips n...I haven't posted anything in about six months but after watching your video I now have the courage to start back posting. Thank you so much.
Yessss....please record and upload. There is NO time like the present. There is a whole community that needs and wants to hear from you. Thank you for watching. I truly appreciate your support. 🦋
I just found you channel and I'm so happy I did. You are so right about connecting. I feel like it goes such a long way to build a community on a channel. Thanks for sharing 😊
21:53 you literally made me LOL when you said "You didn't see any of my analytics because I don't know how to do that" 😂 Soo relatable! But I'm learning! And yesssss we ARE our niche! ✊ I'm new and have talked about my struggle with that also. And lastly, your pixie is adorable! It fits you perfectly, shout out for females with short hair! 🤩
That is the God’s honest truth! I really don’t know!! LOL!!! Thank you for not making me feel alone on that one. You’re so sweet. I am loving my pixie era!! It was just the thing I didn’t know I needed and am so happy I did it. Thank you for watching and I appreciate your support. 🦋
I like that you said no niche. That’s what was holding me back from uploading because I have so much various things to talk about. I am just going to record and start uploading. Hopefully I find audience. Love your channel. Keep going.
Congratulations on starting your channel. It is only UP from here. Correction my dear....you will not find your audience. Your audience will FIND YOU! There is a whole community that needs and wants to hear from you. Wishing you all the best on your channel. Thank you for watching. I truly appreciate your support. 🦋
I enjoyed your video. I am 65 and recently widowed in the last 6 months. I have a niche RUclips channel that I have not been consistent with but I am encouraged by your thoughts on that and just in general. Thanks for a thought provoking and wonderful video and congrats on your success.😊
Sorry to hear of your loss. My deepest sympathy to you. It makes me so happy that you found my video helpful. Consistency is key. Keep recording and uploading and let the algorithm work its magic. Your tribe will find you. Thank you for watching. I appreciate your support. 🦋
I loved this video! I've been struggling w/ staying consistent. I keep 2nd guessing myself and it has not served me or the life I want to live. Thank you for being open to sharing your journey.
Thank you for this video. I am also a new RUclipsr. I also got inspiration from Dough Dash. I been wanting to start a channel like mine for years. Now I’m 52 and I feel it is time to do it. No excuses for me. Thank you for your story. I’m a new subscriber to your channel.
Yessss!!! No time like the present to start a channel. So happy you’re leaning in to all of that fear. Stay the course! The hardest part is getting started. Wishing you success and abundance. Thank you for subscribing and watching. I appreciate your support. 🦋
Thank you for a wonderful video and encouragement! It can get discouraging if we let it!Congratulations on your success and many blessings on your journey!🎉❤
Congratulations on your new channel. Wishing you success & abundance. You got this! We are all in this together. Thank you for watching. I appreciate your support. 🦋
And you are growing sooooo fast! Great Work! This is where you belong!❤ I have to get my nerve up to,start my channel! I really don't,want a niche either.
No need to niche. Find 1-2 things you are comfortable speaking about and hit record. Stick with those topics to get you comfortable in front of the camera and the RUclips app and record a few short form videos (4-8 mins) in the beginning. Once you feel good and have a steady rhythm, pull the plug and go for a long form video. Best of luck to you. 🦋
Excited to bring you this exciting video showing my progress to date. It is my vision board coming to life. Thank you for watching and all of your love.
@Life With Lissette 🦋
is it lack or some people are just blessed.been doing this 3yrs with over 380 videos but still not yet even 1k subs
Thanks for sharing, acknowledging being over 50 and Happy 2025 😇🥰😇
💜
Thank you for bringing this content to us.
I too am a woman over 50, and I must say that I really appreciate your authentic, organic approach. Like you, I love being me and expressing life lessons that I have learned and educating my audience. Your post has now made me feel that making more videos will be easier by just opening up and sharing general, heartfelt stories as well. Love that so much. Also, love your tip to engage with those who comment on our channel. Nice tip. Thanks for sharing and being your natural self. Beautiful post.
I have been introducing everyone Im close to, to start a RUclips channel. It’s not a get rich quick scheme you have to put it the work but it is worth it! I started one month now, managing 3 channels 😭 not monetized as yet but they are all doing good 👍 it’s not about Ig but when your breakthrough comes. Keep going!
I commend you for starting 3 channels. One is enough for me for now. That is amazing. Kudos to you for keeping up with all of them. And you're right -- it is work but worth every minute spent. Congratulations to you. Wishing you much success with all of them.
Thank you for watching. I appreciate your support. 🦋
I love your videos !! As a 51 year old RUclipsr, I enjoy giving and receiving advice from like-minded people ❤
Congratulations on your channel! Wishing you so much success and abundance. We are all in this together.
Thank you for watching. I appreciate your support. 🦋
As a woman over 70, I realized that I fall into the category of women over 50. 😊 I have just discovered your channel and I enjoyed this video. And your best advice, at least the one that I needed to hear today, was to not overthink! ❤ Thank you.
Overthinking in general robs us of so much joy.
My hope for you in this new year is that you give yourself grace, especially when you find yourself over-“anything”.
Thank you for watching and your support. Happy New Year! 🦋
Lissette is amazing. I follow her and another lady name Sonja Arline who's over 50 too. These women inspired me tremendously.😄
How sweet of you!! Thank you for the love and for watching. I appreciate your support. 🦋
It’s a great category to be in! 😊
Thank you so much! I appreciate your support. ♥
As a brand new RUclipsr (first video last week), this was so refreshing to see. No fancy edits, just a heartfelt chat. I just LOVE your sincerely and passion. Thank you ❤
Congratulations on your first video. That is awesome. There is no time like the present to have a channel.
Thank you for watching. I appreciate your support. 🦋
Congratulations Lissette! I'm so happy your video came up on my feed. I really needed to hear someone say "don't niche down" and "stop looking at your analytics too often". I litteraly just hide my analytics tool as I tend to overthink and then start questioning myself. This was such a needed boost for me. Congrats again!
I am so happy you found value in my video. Trying to niche down is a way of boxing people in and not letting them shine in their authenticity. I also believe that YT is welcoming new approaches, strategies and creators that can bring in a different genre of topics & subscribers. At least that has been my personal experience. Wishing you all the best in your new channel. Keep uploading and sharing.
Thank you for watching. I appreciate your support. 🦋

You are amazing. I was just scrolling and I came across your video. I just wanted to say that to you. Thank you for putting that out there. More people out here need more encouragement.
Awww...so sweet of you to say. We are all in this together. Thank you for watching. I appreciate your support. 🦋
I too am over 50! This over 50 thing must be a trend for youtube right now. I created one 5 years ago with tutorials just for fun but now im ready to update my channel and get going. Thanks for your courage to inspire
There is no better time than the present to be 50+ and start/re-start a channel. The algorithm loves us. Thank you for watching. I truly appreciate your support. 🦋
All the best. I am a new youtuber here
Congratulations on getting monetized. The small victories are the biggest motivator.
You are so right. Pausing to take note of every single milestone, good or not so good, is the key to enjoying this process. Thank you for watching. I appreciate your support. 🦋
That’s an awesome story congratulations it is your time sis!! I’m 55!work full time and I started my channel over the summer with digital diy and digital marketing and I’m so happy for my 250 subs!! It’s so gratifying we ARE WORTH IT!! Blessings!!

Speak of monetizing your channel as if it already happened. You will monetize your channel. Believe it, claim and manifest it. It's yours. Thank you for watching. I truly appreciate your support. 🦋
Congratulations on getting monetized! You are so authentic and true to yourself and it shines in your video! I also applaud you for making a 24 minute video, I just started and it’s so hard for me to get to even 10 minutes 😅 you are inspiring me and pushing me to be better, so thank you for that ❤
When you speak about something that is coming from your heart, it is hard to keep it short. I like to vary my video lengths which also helps with making sure I don't niche myself down. You got this!!! Just keep showing up.
Thank you for watching. I appreciate your support. 🦋
@ its hard for me to speak from the heart, at least so far, since I’m so anxious while recording 😫 but I hope to break out of my shell and continue improving over time! Keep up the amazing content!! :)
Hi Lissette, thank you so much this video!!! I'm on my way to start a RUclips channel (53 years, living in Spain...). What you said about no niching your channel, is the thing I needed to heard; I'm having a hard time trying to "delimit" what I'm going to be talking about, and your comment resonated with me in a very special way, it was what I needed to keep going. Congratulation! 👏👏Thank you ❤
I am 52 and just recently restarted recording. I appreciate you for sharing the details of what has helped you because it can get overwhelming at times to know if you’re doing the right thing. I feel like you with the niche thing. I just want to help women in midlife manifest their own dream life. A life they desire to live and not one someone else has designed for them. So thank you for being present. It’s encouraging 💛
Welcome back to RUclips. I look forward to seeing your videos. ❤

Thank you so much!! I appreciate your support. Happy New Year.
I love that you took the time to share. This means a lot to me being new to yt! These are new tips I have not heard from anyone. Let’s see how it goes. Thank you
You are so welcome. Everyone's journey is different but it is my personal opinion that RUclips is looking for channels to do things different, stir up the algorithm a little bit and bring a new fresh way of reaching different genres of people. Congratulations on your new channel. Stay focused and keep uploading videos.
Thank you for watching. I appreciate your support. 🦋
Thank you for your videos, Lisette! I really enjoy the fact that there are no ‘bells and whistles’ to your videos, no jerky camera movements or zoom-ins and outs. This now 61 year old post-meno woman appreciates this fact 😂 You’re a true inspiration ☺️🌸
Awwww you’re so sweet. Those zooms give me the zoomies. Some of the graphics catch me off guard and I end up paying attention to the graphic and not what is being said which means I have to go back and listen to it again. It can be frustrating at times. I am sure that one day I will learn them and may have some in my figure videos but I will do them while keeping in mind my own triggers when I see them on other videos. There’s beauty in simplicity. Thank you so much for watching and I appreciate your support. 🦋
Thank you, Lissette! I started a podcast at 50 and feel a lot of the same ways. I don't know how to do it all, but I need to be authentic to myself. And sometimes all the bells and whistles of RUclips are too much! I love that you took the risk and now are inspiring other women : )
Yes, I agree with you. Being authentic with ourselves is essential ✨️ As a new RUclipsr who's 51, I am soaking up this information ❤
You are so welcome. What a sweet comment. Bells and whistles are noisy and distractors. Show up as YOU and it will come thru in your videos. There is a whole community waiting for you. I mean it when I say that there is no time like the present to have a channel, especially if you are 50+!

You was all the confirmation I needed! Thank you for the kind words and motivation! You have a new sub!❤🎉keep’um coming!😊
Amen sis! There is NO time like the present to start a channel. Don't give fear, procrastination or overthinking a single more ounce of time or energy. Lean in to that fear, record & upload. The hardest part is uploading that first video. You got this! You are worthy! God speed!!

Hola, Lissette! "If you can't find it, just be it!" Here's another "IT"! Nice to meet you! Your video is very inspiring and I TOTALLY agree with everything you mentioned about your comments. They took the time (their most valuable asset) to view your video, or maybe even 5, 10, 12. The least they deserve is a ❤. Kudos to you for recognizing that and, even more so, benefiting from it without even knowing it. You've earned yourself yet ANOTHER sub and I just can't wait to go down the rabbit hole! 😆
P.S.
Love the pixie cut! 😍
Awww...what a sweet and thoughtful comment. It made my whole heart smile. Staying connected is what keeps me showing up and connected. This is a wonderful community that I am blessed and grateful to be a part of on a daily basis.
Thank you for watching. I appreciate your support. 🦋
Hi Lissette, thank you so much for this video! I feel like we share the same sentiment. I almost gave up on my channel until I came across your video. Being a woman over 50 like yourself, starting a RUclips channel has been a bit overwhelming. Thank you for the vote of confidence and God speed your growth in all aspects.
You got this! Don't give up! Record, upload and continue to show up. We are all in this together. Wishing you much success on your new channel.

Your video was very genuine and has made it feel a little lighter. Keep being uniquely you it is very much appreciated!!
This is such a lovely video and an encouraging one. Thank you for taking the time to re-record it for a 3rd time. I'm 41, and I resonate with your energy. It was an easy subscribe for me! Thank you once again, and well done on growing so fast! I started almost a year ago and gained just over 200 subs since. I know it's not a race, but a journey. It's inspiring to see what's possible. Thank you and all the best on your journey 🙏 p.s. Loving the pixie haircut 💇♀️ "A woman who cuts her hair is about to change her life" -Coco Chanel 👋😊

Right on, Lissette! The almighty algorithm brought your “AF” video to my feed a couple of weeks ago, and I loved it. I turn 55 in March and your videos inspire me. And I’m Hispanic, so I appreciate seeing someone who looks like me and says “Adiós.” All good wishes for more creativity, satisfaction, and monetization!
Yes sis - we are in our prime. Happy Birthday to you!! Such a sweet comment. 2025 is going to be our year. Thank you for watching and your continued support. 🦋
I pray that my mom finds this video and starts her channel. I want so much for her that she says she wants.
While nothing’s guaranteed in terms of quick monetization, I shared that she’ll get to express herself and offer help to others as she’s been claiming is her desire, and then she gets to potentially and eventually get Adsense $ from her work.
Thanks for sharing your experience and encouragement.

It warms my heart to know that you found it helpful. You're so sweet. Thank you for watching. I truly appreciate your support. 🦋
I loved this Lissette. I’m a 37 yr old man from the UK, so not your target audience 😅
However, I took A LOT away from what you shared, especially as I literally just had a similar realisation “don’t niche me down” and made my first video today after years of battling that same mental block - it felt liberating.
I also realllly love the fact that you’re committed to replying and chatting with people, that’s a huge part of my own personal values too.
Anyway, thank you for your video. Thoroughly loved it 🙏❤️
Wow! From the UK!!! That's pretty awesome. It makes me so happy that you found value in my video. I have found that niches box people in and really doesn't allow them to be creative. RUclips has too much of the same and as a community platform, it has definitely been welcoming of new ideas, approaches and ways of connecting to different audiences. At least that has been the case in my personal experience. You won't know until you try so kudos & congratulations to you for starting your channel. Wishing you all the best.

We all have different things that work for us and I am so happy that you found what works best for you.

Hi Lissette! So happy I came across your channel! I’m really enjoying your content. You know what resonated with me the most? Two things. The first, I completely agree that watching the analytics can be a rabbit hole!😂 the second, I’m thankful for the reminder you gave about pinning the comment at the bottom of the video. For some reason, I stopped doing it after my 2nd or third video. I forgot all about it. Keep putting out the great content. Our community needs it! 😊
Hello there! A rabbit hole it most definitely is and hard to come out of it once we are deep inside. STaying connected is far more important, in my personal humble opinion. Other larger channels may disagree but we will deal with that when DO become large channels here in these RUclips streets. I am so happy that you are finding value in my content and left me a comment to confirm. Thank you for watching. I truly appreciate your support. 🦋

As a new content creator over 50, I just want to thank you for being so real and sharing your success. I do have to have a niche, since it's the purpose for my channel (to support abandoned cats in my neighborhood) but I hope to add a playlist of vlog style videos where I can talk about other things. Now more than ever, folks are looking for genuine connections. I love that you are here!
I love that we have found each other. There are so many pet/animal lovers in this world that will get a lot benefit from what you have to share. Your channel is definitely something that will do extremely well. Congratulations to you. Continue sharing and connecting. Thank you for watching. I truly appreciate your support. 🦋

Yes Pixie queen!! You are one of my OG supporters. Best of luck to you as well. Happy New Year!! 🦋
@ happy happy!
Me too! ♥♥♥
Loving your video Lissette, you're such an inspiration❤
Awwww you’re so sweet. Thank you so much for watching and I appreciate your support. 🦋
You just got a new subscriber,your story gave me peace and encouragement to start my channel,i have been over thinking the whole thing for a very long time now and i feel so choked.
No more overthinking. It will rob you of your joy, blessings and growth. It will keep you standing still if you keep feeding it energy. Let's turn that around and let's get started on that channel. There is no time like the present to grow & share. You are worthy.
Thank you for subscribing & watching. I appreciate your support. 🦋
Oh Lisette, you are such a huge inspiration to me! Thank you so much for this video. Like you I got motivated by Dough Dash back in November. So I’m only 8 weeks in. This was awesome! I’m 55 and a Latina! ❤
Latina power let's go! Congratulations on your new channel. How exciting. Wishing you all the best in success and abundance. I can't wait to hear how your channel has skyrocketed. There is no time like the present to have a channel. Kudos to you. Thank you for watching. I appreciate your support. 🦋
Your "5 Things" video is how I found you! I started my channel 10 months ago, and through encouragement from another RUclipsr gained many subscribers. But I let self-doubt creep in and hold me back. Lack of consistent content caused my channel to stagnate. Now, I'm promising myself to improve my consistency, and really think about the direction I want my channel to take. Congratulations on your FAST monetization, and thank you for sharing this with us!
Keep going even if all you upload is a quick 3 minute video. Consistently, engagement, interaction are key. You got this. Wishing you so much success and abundance. Thank you for watching and I appreciate your support. 🦋
Binge watching all of your content! Had to catch up!😊 Happy New Year!😊🎉❤
Happy New Year!! Thank you for binge watching my videos. That means the world to me. 🦋
I am so very Happy for you! And,I've Never heard anyone mention the preset tab!( That I figured existed)and,I Love when the creator,interacts in the chat! Very Informative Video! Great Video!
Yes they are pre typed and you can just click on them to send a response. They are created to “save time”. I get the reason for them being there but I’m just not a fan, personally. RUclips is about creating and curating a community and that has been my goal from day one. 🦋
@@LifewithLissette I definitely agree with what you're saying.🙂
im glad you mentioned not having a niche. I feel the say way starting my channel. I want to be open. Great pointers, thanks!
RUclips is welcoming so many new channels. This is a great time to start one for sure. Thank you for watching. I appreciate your support. 🦋
Thanks so much for your video! Today is the day I am going to post my first RUclips video. I have been trying for longer than I want to admit! Your honest sharing comes as a validation that today has to be the "day ". Thank you. I wish you continued success. ❤
YES today is the day. Release that fear and show it who is boss. You are worthy. Overthinking is robbing you of your joy, abundance and blessings. The hardest part is uploading your first video. You got this! You can do hard things.
Thank you for watching. I appreciate your support. 🦋
This is such a great video with REAL advice! Especially giving support and encouragement AND taking the time to write ✍️ to the folks that comment on your videos. These are tips I haven’t heard before. I appreciate you! Thanks and new RUclipsr and my videos will launch in 2 weeks. You have encouraged me to START ❤❤ I am subscribing to your channel ❤
Congratulations on the soon to be launch of your channel. That's so exciting. Once you upload your first video, your nerves will start to lessen. Just keep posting, sharing and commenting. Trust and believe that your channel will grow. You got this.
Thank you for watching & subscribing. I appreciate your support. 🦋
Your video just popped up on my feed for a reason...as a struggling youtuber, it was so encouraging to hear your story of getting monetized...! That is truly amazing! Congratulation! Thank you for sharing🙏
Stick with it and trust the process. Don't give up. There is a community waiting to hear from you. Thank you for watching. I appreciate your support. 🦋
@LifewithLissette thanks for your encouragement!
Well deserved and congratulations !❤️🎉
Awww thank you sis. You are one of my OG supporters. I truly appreciate your constant support. 🦋
@ You’re more than welcome.❤️❤️
Learn something new, a Pixie Cut. Congratulations. The cut looks great!!!
Yes...I am loving my pixie cut era. Thank you for watching. I appreciate your support. 🦋
♡ Congratulations! Blessings!
Thank you SO much. I appreciate your support. 🦋
I am very close to being monetized and told myself to STOP looking at the analytics and just keep going and don't overthink, so hearing you say it is confirmation, along with not being so concerned with all the flashy things on the screen. I am not techy and that is what intimidated me with youtube before.
Yessss!!! Keep pressing forward and stay consistent. Thank you for watching and for your continued support. 🦋
Thanks for sharing your motivational video and congratulations on all of your success! 🙂
Thank you for watching. I appreciate your support. 🦋
Right there at the end where you were basically saying to TAKE ACTION. That's what caught my attention the most! (Though I love and appreciate that you took the time to outline all of these things and share them with us!) I just keep thinking lately how I have spent so many years learning and trying to work things out in my head, but the trick is to actually TRY. To experiment. To take action and then adjust! I can't make progress by thinking things to death (and believe me, I have tried lol). Thanks again for another great one Lissette! I'm glad you said yes and took action. 🙂
Yessss…taking action is the key to unlocking your potential of your channel. It sounds to me like you are ready so just rip off the bandaid and go for it. You won’t know until you try. There is a whole community here waiting for you to share it all. I mean it when I say that there is no time like the present to be on RUclips. You got this!!
Thank you for watching and I appreciate your support. 🦋 Happy New Year!!
Hi Lissette, you are doing a good job. Congratulations! With the videos this happened to me, too. Too loud, no sound...I just started my youtube channel, I am German retiree who moved to France some years ago. Good luck and all the best from South of France. Thanks for your video.
Wow!! South of France -- that is AMAZING! Congratulations on your retirement and starting your channel, both exciting! That no sound thing drove me bananas. Wishing you all the best on your new RUclips journey. Thank you for watching. I truly appreciate your support. 🦋
@@LifewithLissette Thank you so much, dear Lissette. I really like the way you are talking in that authentic way. All the best for you, too.🥰
I needed this ! This morning and thank you for sharing this! I appreciate that you don’t have a gatekeeping heart. 💗 Videos like this is so inspiring ❤ God bless your Journey and you’re haircut is Stunning
Awww...what a sweet comment. You are so welcome. Gatekeeping helps no one and that goes against my primary purpose for starting a channel. Thank you for watching. I truly appreciate your support. 🦋
I've just subscribed. I appreciate your authenticity and honesty. Good luck! thanks for being an inspiration for us.
Thank you so much for subscribing & watching. I appreciate your support. 🦋
Go girl! Sky is the limit!
Thank you so much for watching. I appreciate your support. 🦋
I love this! I’m not 50 yet, but the advice is incredibly valuable. I’m also not a big fan of niching down-I’m more of a free spirit who likes to explore different things.
Yes sis! Often times niche-ing can put is in a box. No thank you. Thank you for watching. I appreciate your support. 🦋
Thank you for your diligence. Determination delivered a meaningful message. Your “5 Things at 54….” Video it was captured my attention. It was the first of your videos I viewed. Blessings!
@chanelcurry313 you're making me tear up! Such a sweet comment. I am so happy we found each other. I hope you enjoyed that video. Thank you for watching and for your support. It means the world to me. ♥
Hi Lisette, this is a very nice video. Congratulations on your rapid success. I’m also a woman over 50. I started a BookTube channel a few weeks ago. I definitely need to stop overthinking, make my videos and upload 😂! Dough Dash is very inspirational I agree. Best wishes ❤
Overthinking will rob you of everything you deserve and want. Lean in to that fear. I love that idea of a BookTube!! Wishing you success and abundance. Thank you for watching and I appreciate your support. 🦋
@ thank you! 📚❤️
That’s awesome, hearing about your journey and getting that first monetized payment means everything. At that point, it’s not about the money but more so what it took to get there. Good for you
I have enjoyed every high and low so far. Never take any of it for granted for this opportunity to share and connect. Thank you for watching. I appreciate your support. 🦋
Congratulations! Thank you for sharing what worked for you. It validated that I'm on the right track. The gurus were discouraging because their advice did not resonate with me. It felt like I had to be a phoney to succeed. So I chose to just be me and be grateful if each video just reached one person.
Thank you so much!! I'm starting my channel and needed this!!
Congratulations on your channel. RUclips is a wonderful community. There is no time like the present! Thank you for watching and I appreciate your support. 🦋
Hello darling! Congratulations on getting started. I’m on the same journey 💕
Congratulations to you on your journey!! How exciting! Thank you for watching. I appreciate your support. 🦋
This is very encouraging, thank you for sharing your journey. I started 2 channels, working on being consistent.
Consistency is key but also staying close to your community. Best of luck to you in your new YT journey.
Thank you for watching. I appreciate your support. 🦋
Your videos are always popping up just when I need them😊❤
That makes my heart so happy! You got this sis!!! ♥
@@LifewithLissettethank you! Totally commented from the wrong account but I’m getting it together😊… you’ve hit the nail on the head & spoke some many thoughts I’ve had in my head… I’m committed to less over thinking & just having fun with this. Thank you sooo much Lissette! 🥂 to all your success and what’s to come!
Congratulations 👏🏼 on your monetization....I am also on RUclips n...I haven't posted anything in about six months but after watching your video I now have the courage to start back posting. Thank you so much.
Yessss....please record and upload. There is NO time like the present. There is a whole community that needs and wants to hear from you. Thank you for watching. I truly appreciate your support. 🦋
I just found you channel and I'm so happy I did. You are so right about connecting. I feel like it goes such a long way to build a community on a channel. Thanks for sharing 😊
Yesss 🎉 Congratulations to you and thanks for sharing 😊
Thank you so much. I appreciate your support. Happy New Year! 🦋
21:53 you literally made me LOL when you said "You didn't see any of my analytics because I don't know how to do that" 😂 Soo relatable! But I'm learning! And yesssss we ARE our niche! ✊ I'm new and have talked about my struggle with that also. And lastly, your pixie is adorable! It fits you perfectly, shout out for females with short hair! 🤩
That is the God’s honest truth! I really don’t know!! LOL!!! Thank you for not making me feel alone on that one. You’re so sweet. I am loving my pixie era!! It was just the thing I didn’t know I needed and am so happy I did it. Thank you for watching and I appreciate your support. 🦋
@LifewithLissette yes girl keep it up, I'm right behind ya 😉
We are all in this together! ♥
I like that you said no niche. That’s what was holding me back from uploading because I have so much various things to talk about. I am just going to record and start uploading. Hopefully I find audience. Love your channel. Keep going.
Congratulations on starting your channel. It is only UP from here. Correction my dear....you will not find your audience. Your audience will FIND YOU! There is a whole community that needs and wants to hear from you. Wishing you all the best on your channel. Thank you for watching. I truly appreciate your support. 🦋
I enjoyed your video. I am 65 and recently widowed in the last 6 months. I have a niche RUclips channel that I have not been consistent with but I am encouraged by your thoughts on that and just in general. Thanks for a thought provoking and wonderful video and congrats on your success.😊
Sorry to hear of your loss. My deepest sympathy to you.
It makes me so happy that you found my video helpful. Consistency is key. Keep recording and uploading and let the algorithm work its magic. Your tribe will find you.
Thank you for watching. I appreciate your support. 🦋
@ thank You
I loved this video! I've been struggling w/ staying consistent. I keep 2nd guessing myself and it has not served me or the life I want to live. Thank you for being open to sharing your journey.
Thank you for this video. I am also a new RUclipsr. I also got inspiration from Dough Dash. I been wanting to start a channel like mine for years. Now I’m 52 and I feel it is time to do it. No excuses for me. Thank you for your story. I’m a new subscriber to your channel.
Yessss!!! No time like the present to start a channel. So happy you’re leaning in to all of that fear. Stay the course! The hardest part is getting started. Wishing you success and abundance. Thank you for subscribing and watching. I appreciate your support. 🦋
Love The Transparency, Thank You 😊
You're so welcome. Thank you for watching. I truly appreciate your support. 🦋
Thank you for a wonderful video and encouragement! It can get discouraging if we let it!Congratulations on your success and many blessings on your journey!🎉❤
You're so very welcome. One video, one day at a time. You got this. Thank you for watching. I appreciate your support. 🦋
Hi, I see myself in everything you are saying. As a new RUclips in my fifties, I feel encouraged. Thank you.
Congratulations on your new channel. Wishing you success & abundance. You got this! We are all in this together.
Thank you for watching. I appreciate your support. 🦋
And you are growing sooooo fast! Great Work! This is where you belong!❤ I have to get my nerve up to,start my channel! I really don't,want a niche either.
No need to niche. Find 1-2 things you are comfortable speaking about and hit record. Stick with those topics to get you comfortable in front of the camera and the RUclips app and record a few short form videos (4-8 mins) in the beginning. Once you feel good and have a steady rhythm, pull the plug and go for a long form video. Best of luck to you. 🦋
