    I truly cannot describe how grateful I am that I started this channel back in 2017!! 🥹 from meeting so many incredible likeminded people, to becoming financially independent so young, to overcoming the effects of bullying by OWNING the fact that I loved studying, to having a creative outlet to capture my life as I grow up, it was truly the best choice I ever made!!
    If any part of you is considering starting a channel, I can’t recommend enough to just START. 🌟 you never know where it could take you.
    And like I said in the video, “Everything in the world has already been said, but it’s never been said by you.”
    Pleaseee comment below your big dreams for your channels so we can support you!! 🦋 lots of love x

      Hi Jade I didn’t know how to write my own comment so here I go. I actually started my yt channel feb 2024 right after I dropped out of uni so I could take an impromptu gap year for my mental health. Holy cow you have motivated and inspired me so much. Right now I’m finding it hard to make a consistent routine and especially I’m scared when school start so I am going to start putting a system into place so I can acc post more. Thank you for all you do you have changed my life

You are amazing and very inspiring, I am so glad that one day I found your channel, and now you really feel like a nice corner of the Internet and a safe space!! Thank you for the fact that you're here, and you inspired me to create a channel about books, where I'll just read a little and talk about what I liked xx

      Most profession demands you to be more vocal and more expressive. A carpenter who is good at his work is good but a carpenter who is also very vocal and good communicator is instantly 10x better.

As I've been working on more videos, I've found it helps to embrace that awkwardness and edit in a way that I find funny and enjoyable.

    I think that for small channels the most important thing is to get good presence from the beginning. If you are not popular, people won't care even if you have the best videos and the best content on platform. I am not beginner anymore, but I know how hard it can be (and honestly if I didn't use a lot of Fame- ster, I would have quit a long time ago. It made everything much easier for me, especially getting to 1000 subs and view hours).

      I get the fact that people can have channels under different accounts, especially considering the fact that when I start my channel it will be under a different account than this one.
      But why is it that when I see these comments about the program you mentioned, every single time it's from an account with very few followers and no content?
      Considering the fact that most people who comment on these types of videos talking about their struggles or success are actually commenting from the account they are working on, this seems highly suspicious.
      Kinda like it's just spam.

So this video comes at just the right time. You spoke from my heart, especially about the fear of what others might think, which is so real… thank you for being inspiring, for sharing valuable knowledge, for being you. Much love

    I was thinking about this lately, so as my perfectionist self that wanted to do everything right from the beginning I started looking at youtube channels of people that inspire me (ofc you!) and I thought “how hasn’t Jade made a video on this yet?” and it’s crazy that sometimes it feels like you can read my mind 😂
    I’ll take this as a sign from the Universe because it really is wild that this video was published right now, in the exact very moment i was thinking about creating a youtube channel and following my creativity that often gets too hindered by so many fears!

From the quote at the beginning and when you talk about practicing before the camera without posting, just to get comfortable. You're really motivating and genuine. I've wanted to start a channel for a while now but i don't really know what it should be about. My life is rather quiet and boring, to be honest and i feel a bit stuck in my life. But after watching your video i'm going to sit myself down and brainstorm what i could talk about. So thank you again Jade, you're really are something special🥰

I literally wrote down a little quote from you, which reads, " What you have to say might be exactly what someone needs to hear..." and that just hit me in the chest. I posted my 2nd ever UA-cam video yesterday, and I love to see them as little diary entries - they are real, raw, authentic and just filled with real life experiences and chaotic situations (like an actual diary, and little lessons I've learnt or am still going through) - I tried posting every week, but just never feel like I'm able to due to my current workload, so I moved it to every 2nd week, but I'm sure once I have my systems in place, I'll be able to. 🥰

    A friend of mine just sent me this video because I told her how I was feeling overwhelmed by this giant wall of things that I had to do in order to ‚make it’ as a musician and how other indie artists are just creating new content and new amazing songs every five minutes and I just don’t have that time with a toddler right now. It is so frustrating to think about what I can‘t do yet and how I am not even close to my goals and it’s very easy to just give up. (That’s why I usually try to avoid this rabbit hole and focus on just having fun on the way.)
    This video and your gigantic smile gave me such good vibes and so much motivation to get back on the horse and just keep going so thank you :)
    Small tip to anyone who doesn‘t have an hour a day like me: Start with 15 minutes. Even I have 15 minutes a day for music and the more I am creating this habbit, the easier it gets to expand to 20, 30 minutes and bam there is your whole hour 💥☺️

    This. 100%. I first started watching you when you made your Australia backpacking series, that was absolutely delightfull to watch, and it made me want to vlog my own journey to Australia. After a failed first channel, I made this one specifically for my four week backpacking journey and over the last eight months, I've started to take it a bit more seriously. Every other week so far, because making more right now isn't do-able with my schedule yet, but I've enjoyed making Dutch video's about my workweek as a selfpublished author and hopefully soon traditionally publushed author, my worklife as a freelancer, some travelss here and there and most recently my four week holiday. What changed since the failed channel and now? I've let go of perfectionism. TikTok was for me a way to let go of that, but since learning that it's okay for something not to be perfect, it's helped creating more freely here. Thank you for always being real on socials!

I believe it starts with analyzing our limiting beliefs, unlearning habits and thoughts that don't serve us, and understanding that we have more strength than we think. I want to make those videos that one watches in the morning to start their day in the best possible way - the same way I feel about your videos. Thank you for all your advice, for being you, and for creating this safe space on internet. We love it here🥰

    Hi Jade and friends! My sister sent me this video because I have wanted to start a UA-cam channel for 2 YEARS now!!! And here we gooooo August 31st (the day of my parent's who passed away 26th wedding anniversary) I am starting my guided BREATHWORK session channel. Thank you for your story, wisdom and motivation

    How did you have me tearing up at the end?!? What a brilliant message that I needed to hear today!! I've wanted to be a UA-camr for years, but between the imposter syndrome and others just downplaying the idea, I never got off the ground. Last year I promised myself that I was going to see my dream happen, and here we are a year later! Anyway, I am scared to death to do this, but yesterday I decided that I will have my first video published by my 50th birthday NEXT MONTH!! Thank goodness it isn't until the end of October. Ha! I'm a late diagnosed ADHDer who has spent my life hearing things like "you never finish what you start," "you're just lazy," "you can't focus on anything." So many people have listened to that, and it's time we rise up and realize our superpowers! I have a late diagnosed Autistic kiddo (now 20) as well. Single mom, 2 amazing kids, have met amazing people, had crazy life experiences, was in the military, managed to purchase a home for the three of us after a messy divorce, and I've done it all while people have still said such unhelpful things! I want to create a channel that reminds people, especially neurodivergent-type women, that we matter, we are amazing, and we can do hard things, even if we don't believe it. I want to share my experiences, what I've done to manage the pitfalls of ADHD myself, and encourage those who feel "less than". So many of us are so hard on ourselves, and we need to be remined to stop and be kind to ourselves! Ooof! I got a little fired up there! I do feel like my channel may be a little all over the place, but the message above will hopefully always lead the way and shine through. I'm all over the place, so it would only be authentic if my channel was a bit scattered as well! ;) Thank you for encouraging me to write this down for your corner of the internet to see!! I'm definitely now having an "Oh Sh!t" moment!!

  • @STEAMerBear
    @STEAMerBear 3 місяці тому +4

    As an ASD/ADHD person, I struggle with (and also celebrate) loving almost everything. I’ve been an intel analyst, a tour guide, a delivery driver, an optician, a railroad conductor, a retail manager, an actor, a counselor, a rental car franchise operator, a computer programmer, and a student studying biochemistry, then psychology, then engineering. I’m currently a math & science teacher. I am passionate about people exploring and discovering all their passions, and embracing and accepting their personal uniqueness. I am fascinated by the concept of skew lines as an analogy for every life. No matter how much we might think we are parallel or intersect other lives, each of us is 100% distinct. Our history is no one else’s. Our values are our own. Our tastes and thoughts and loves and hates are MORE unique than our fingerprints.
    I believe we discover through writing, and I am hoping to discover if I should start an active UA-cam channel (or maybe a few-or even many). I’d love to hear what other people think, and yet I am happy to walk this adventure alone as well. The trip up any mountain is always richer and fuller than the view from the top; but that view alone is worth the trip.

    I’ve always wanted to share stories, knowledge, and wisdom through a channel, but I’ve often been held back by fear, constantly searching for reasons not to start. That fear still lingers, but something has changed-my inspiration is now guiding me forward. Watching Jade’s video made me realize what I’ve always wanted, yet was too scared to pursue. Now, I feel ready to share my love for poetry, spirituality, and philosophy with the world.

UA-cam is a great platform and they do so much for us creators.

    I’ve created for others and got “I love your energy” a lot on the feedback. But then when I go to do it myself, for my own channel, I’m petrified 😅 so I’ve gone a slightly different way until i grow back into that confidence (and actually enjoying the filmmaking aspects). It’s a happy accident. So, I think you also have to be so kind to yourself ❤ and your right, if you’re quiet, be quiet. We all have a space waiting for us on here.

    I aim to support people on their spiritual awakening journey through my own experiences and learnings and as you yourself stated in previous videos, speaking on spirituality is not the easiest thing but making those videos empowers me so much and makes me feel so confident!
    Although it feels like a rollercoaster ride sometimes when you cannot reach set goals or slip up from your routine; you just know that your own little corner of self expression and unlimited potential is always ready for you to come back and self actualize ✨
    Thank you for your authentic voice and vulnerable, magic creations in your little (huge) corner of the internet 💖

This video gave me some solid encouragement, I just may start with my voice and insert landscapes and alternate film over having my face, because I’m not confident with my teeth currently. LOL! Still considering doing a channel but may start with maybe 30+ days of filming myself on my phone, just for me, to perhaps grow my confidence a bit, because the fear in me is BIG. PTSD is big in me, and still trying to believe my voice matters. I need to find the force! I’m so happy I found you today. You’re gorgeous, your smile radiates, and your inner beauty shines through! You’re so good at inspiring others! Keep doin’ what you do. ❤

But now I am finally planning to start my UA-cam channel by October 31st, after having an a-ha moment that the knowledge I do have is actually valuable, and needs to be shared🧚🏼‍♂! I want to share experiences and advice on how to go from surviving to thriving before, during and after moving abroad, and how to gain maximum personal growth, and mindful presence in each moment, and how this can and will skyrocket peoples expat experiences😍🚀!

My friends actually started to cook up the idea of creating their own youtube channels and asked me to do the edits. That gave me a sense of confidence thinking that when they can trust me with editing their videos then even I can do the same for myself. The videos of my favorite content creators have been truly empowering and have impacted my life deeply and positively. For my long lost dream of creating a youtube channel which will now come alive, I want to create videos where I capture the beauty that mother nature offers and describe about it in my own enriching words of appreciation...Thank you Jade

    if you’re skeptical of beginning anything, that’s more of a reason to do it.
    i’ve been watching youtube since 2007 and have finally had the guts to create a youtube channel in 2023.
    just within a year, i’ve learned the business aspect of youtube, the content creation, the production, the entrepreneurship behind it, the psychology of youtube and most importantly the dedication and hustle.
    i’ll tell anywho who’s considering it to begin. we all have a story, why not share it?
    good luck to all the starting youtube channels out there.
