Hey friend, hope this video helped you! What other content would you like me to share about? Let me know :)
Hey ux needs any coding knowledge
Could you also share tips or tricks for design iterations. How to not get stuck at one design idea. I tend to get stuck on a particular design I have made but I would like to practice iterations
Hi Rachel! I strongly resonate with your story and admire your focus and determination in everything you do (l literally binged 4 videos back to back). For me, I would like to learn about prepping a presentation and sharing your project with your stakeholder or with your VP of design. What do you include in the presentation that makes the most impact? Do you have tips on delivering your process and results in a succinct and coherent way? Much thanks in advance!
Yes it did
Your contribution is sincerely so helpful
It’s really uplifting also with positivity 🤘🙏🐳
this video just cleared my fears of getting lost and feel overwhelmed while starting out fot ux design. thank u so much !!
You're so welcome!
Hey Rachel, I'm a beginner UXD self taught learner and I just want to let you know that I truly am grateful for you. I was so overwhelmed didn't know where to start because I'm the kind of person who's mind works well with information being organized into it's different compartments for me to know how to take it on a step at a time. There are so many resources all over the internet, but just like you, I also didn't have the qualifications but truly believe that I can commit myself to learning and getting myself in the job market. So not only did your story help me seeing how possible it is, but also your road map helped me come up, together with the resources I got from all over a curriculum of my own that I can now work on. Thank you for taking your time to create that. Thank you for being honest and transparent with your journey and thank you for your video content, and also for believing in yourself, because your journey has truly been a light for me. As I start mine, I just wanted to let you know that I'm now a full on subscriber and will be watching your material. I look forward to updating you on how it goes, and my first successful job.
hey i also want to start this ux learning..plz suggest me tips too
hi anne, and how are you doing? i am in the same position as you were 6 months ago rn!

Thank you so much for sharing all of this! It's so nice to see a fellow self-taught designer share some actual insight and guidance
This short video is so packed of useful information! Briliant! Thanks a lot!
This video was so insightful and thorough! I've been in the design space for a while now and I've never heard of a lot of these resources. Thank you so much for the time and attention you put into these videos. Excellent video. Thank you!
Amazing number of tips in just one video. Straightforward and easy to understand. I like that you have design touches on your video as well. I'd completed my first project a month ago and this is very useful for me to look at how to improve it and get additional advice.
OMG! You have no idea how helpful this video was! I have a degree in Instructional Design and because I had no previous experience could not secure a job and now I am anxious about trying to go freelance. This really laid out a wonderful roadmap to getting started and brushing up on my skills. Thank you thank you for sharing this!
Hey Rachel, thank you for taking out the time to share such amazing resources, this is a total game changer for beginners like myself willing to get started in UI/UX! Thank you once again! ✨️
What a great video! Now is so much clear for me what path I should get during this UX journey. Thanks a lot, Rachel! Really appreciate it ;)
THIS IS GOLD!!!✨
YOU ARE AMAZING AND SO INSPIRATIONAL!
This is such great information! I have been working as a freelance graphic designer for several years now and UI/UX is the next career I want to pursue. I work now at a company doing graphic design, but love how you taught yourself and applied to jobs regardless of the posted qualifications! Every design job that I have had is because I didn't care what the qualifications were and I just did good work and made a solid portfolio, so this is awesome information
Thank you so much. Very good content! You just gave me more inspiration and motivation to pursue my goals. You're amazing! 😊
Your videos are so helpful and the progress bar of each chapter is a great idea :D! Thank you very much and all the best from Germany! :)
this was really helpful and inspiring! thank you so much
Hi Rachel, as a viewer, I would like to say huge thank you to you for providing such easy and clear videos!
I've recently been trying to understand more about how to switch into UX design and i couldn't find any info in Malaysia until i found your channel.
I'm really really really glad to know there's someone who is giving out real, specific information and not just general ones.
I hope you continue to do what you love and we'll be here together with you through this journey. 💖

Thanks Rachel for this great video. I am in the process of a career switch and I am always overwhelmed and confused about how to go about with this but this video gave so much clarity. I rarely comment but this was amazing. Thanks again
I personally want to focus on doing ui design instead of ux but all these resources are super helpful! I have been studying ux just to have knowledge about it but I know what I really want to do is design interface elements. This video has been the most clear and inspiring out of all videos of this type! I did feel a little nervous about starting a daily ui challenge but now I think I might be able to tackle it
I really love your videos, I came across them the other day and have binged watched them. I am just starting out on my graphic design journey on the self-taught route. Are you able to share a template link to your notion portfolio for us to use? Thanks for the advice you provide it is so very helpful!
