Love your honesty throughout all your videos! I'm sure this happens in waves, even to these seemingly popular YTers. The right audience will find you: I find myself veering away from these historically "popular" channels where 50% of the videos are a BetterHelp sponsor segment (lol). I love the "slice of life" and authentic thoughts of the everyday human :) And as someone who was adjacently aquainted with you in high school, it is so nice to see who you are now, the values you hold, and the thoughts you craft and choose share with the world. Maintaining a RUclips channel is a huge undertaking, one I have not pulled the trigger on, but you inspire me to pull the trigger in in 2024/2025 as I start WFH more while on postdoc (also to avoid filming in public LOL). If anything, I can put all the videos on private one day & just have them for myself, like looking back at old journal entries & seeing where your headspace was at at that time in your life. Whether you upload one video a week or once every few months, I love watching your videos, Emily! You're doing great :)
thank you so much for your kind words and encouragement, Laurie! i still think it's really cool that you found my channel through the RUclips algorithm 😆 i definitely feel you on veering away from more "popular" channels (loling @ the better help thing because i thought people knew it was terrible!). i really enjoy smaller channels and creators who are authentic to themselves and where it doesn't feel like they're trying to sell me something 24/7. yes, definitely start your own channel if it's something you're thinking about and wanting to do! i like the idea of being able to private the videos if you ever don't want them up there but still keeping them for yourself. please let me know when you do start! i'd love to see your wfh/post-doc life or whatever you choose to share :)
As a creator with 400 videos and just over 1,000 subscribers after over 3 years on RUclips, I relate to literally everything you have said so much. Why does it feel so cringe to have a RUclips with few subscribers but it’s not cringe if it’s to an audience of tens of thousands of subscribers. I’m just out here doing it for funzies and to share my experiences. Also, I love going back and watching some of my own vlogs as a way of reflection.
yes, i definitely agree! i think as long as it stays fun for you that's all that matters. i also enjoy having vlogs to look back on :) & looking forward to keeping up with your vlogs/channel ☺
I love this video! I enjoy all your videos, but it's nice to know someone else has similar thoughts on making RUclips videos. The intro really set the tone 🔥Great to see all the reflections on your channel, I do like hearing your thoughts on things even if you don't label them semi structured + all the vlogs of you trying and learning things sound fun as well. This feels like a long comment but this video was so inspiring.
thank you so much, Bria! i appreciate all the feedback and am glad to hear that someone other than my parents enjoy hearing my thoughts 🤣 i enjoy all of your videos too and hope you keep creating ☺
Keep up the great work! I've just started my "RUclips Journey" and I'm getting GREAT insights from small channels like yours than the bigger channels. Your audience WILL find you, looking forward to seeing your growth.
thank you so much! large channels can be helpful but sometimes it feels like they've forgotten what it was like to have less than 1k subs haha. and congratulations on starting your channel 🎊can't wait to see how much you grow too!
