I'd like to see more creators across more niches/genres talking about this. If you're not actively taking care of your mental health then you're neglecting it!
Heyyyy 👋 love this! So interesting seeing your routine while in the van. Like most people I really romanticized van life during the pandemic, but have since realized the limited personal space would destroy me personally and I have huge respect for people who can do it with their partners 👏👏👏
I love that you shared this video with us! I started running instagram by myself for my business, and it can be really a toll on my mental health, and I think not many creator talk about that. So I appreciate you're talking about taking care of mental health for creators!
Watching from Panama, 68 and starting a channel called Retired in Panama, what it's really like to live here. Your videos are my go to for every subject. Thanks so much for all your hard work and for presenting everything in a way that helps me feel like I can do it! ❤
I started watching your video's. This is the third one thus far. Although I enjoyed the video, I thought it was a bit too long, for me. I actually was excited about creating a You Tube channel with the first two videos then saw this one and thought it was overwhelming with all that you do. I'm a mother of three and don't have that freedom of scheduling my own time. I agree with mental health being important. Thank you for sharing and creating informative videos. God bless you and your hubby.
Heyyy 👋🏻 This was one of my favourite videos that you have done! I love learning about routines, productivity, and balance. Especially incorporating content creating. Thank you for sharing. 🙏🏻 I appreciate you. xo
Yayyyy! Our girl is living her vlogging dreams 🙌🏾 I love the format of these vlogs! Ngl, I might use this structure for my vlogs too 😂 it’s super informative and fun to watch 🖤🖤🖤 pls do more 👉🏾👈🏾🥺
awe thank you! yes i am!! i was super happy to see that my weekly vlog from a couple of weeks ago actually performed quite well so I was like, why not try again! glad you like them :)
Hey! I really love your videos and being able to learn as a newbie! I've been struggling with chronic kidney disease, but progressing and during down time began creating a video on my CKD journey in order to help others on this same struggling path. Learning to create videos has been great for my physical and mental health. Thanks Katie.
Hi!! I'm Marcia! I love your content and it inspires me so much! keep going you are doing a fabulous job, beautiful!! Thank you for sharing all your hard work! Have a great week!
Your Spanish sounds really good!! I have been starting to implement self care routines to my days too, working from home sometimes makes me feel overwhelmed. I enjoyed this video a lot
Really liked this longer form BTS type vid! Gets me excited for an upcoming roadtrip and thinking of ways I can capture our adventures, but I’m also a routine girly and thrive with consistency. Love seeing how you and Dan make it work on the road while checking out all these cool places
You are a fantastic creator. I am about to jump into the UA-cam life myself on gardening. It scary to say the least but what I've learned from you is amazing. Thank you Katie! You the best
Hey, hey! Katie! Great video! You’re doing fantastic! I appreciate your content so much……great minds--just this morn made Friday my day for plan sesh for new week! Sending encouragement and support! 😊
Heyyy! Great content. I love that your mom told you to plan your work and work your plan. Can you talk more about her and advice to you and impact it has made. I noticed that you worked on videos that were awesome but didn’t seem to get a lot of traction for several years before they finally started getting a lot of views. This has really impressed me that you stuck with it for so long and essentially worked your plan until you got your success! I know you talked about getting discouraged along the way, but the fact that you kept going has really impressed me and motivated me to keep going as well. I definitely have not been as motivated or consistent as you, but looking through the evolution of your videos is giving me the push I needed to get back into video creation. After I record a few videos, I’m hoping to send them to Creatorly to get them edited. lol.😍
my mom has definitely inspired me! her dream since she was young was to start her own restaurant, and after she raised her kids she finally got to pursue it and opened her own place in 2020, in her fifties. that kind of persistence is admirable to me 🥰 and i love that - we'd be happy to edit your videos at Creatorly when you're ready!!
👋🏻 Heeyyy! 😂 I'm late in watching, but I've been bingeing your videos lately. Been sitting on some YT ideas for YEARS, and I'm finally so irritated that I haven’t done anything about it... that I've actually started filming and practicing. Thank you for all your help so far! I know I'll be back for more. 💛
I love making the thumbnails too! I start doing that 1st to get me more excited about the editing process. Your tip about filming the thumbnail and grabbing stills from it was a game-changer for me! Loved seeing your day. Thanks for sharing 💕"Hey!" Proud to be an official MVP 😆
Heyyyy 👋 love how relatable can be this video and what you shared, even if I'm here in my apartment it really feel like that.. Thank you!! And of course I love your vlogs and I totally understand the struggle with it 💜
Your notion templates are a LIFESAVER!! I can always watch these and think about structuring my day better but then stop because I’m trying to learn how to create these tools like the dashboard in notion to help.
Hey Katie, I am from India, I find your vlogs very much helpful in my daily life and I will try to implement your tips that you have shared in your content creation journey. Also, I love your confidence and fluency in your video.
I try turn them into creative goals. For example, I had a goal of getting out for a walk in a local park three times a week but switched it to taking one nice photo in the park. Still achieving the goal but felt a lot more fulfilling and less like a chore.
Heyyyy 👋Loved this video! I've also had the goal of regular yoga practice, but have been struggling with that big time....... I need to get on a better evening routine though so my mornings aren't such a cluster. Staying up too late = rushed/hectic/not great morning.... Anyway! Thanks for sharing this!
Hey, Katie! Dropping the hey. I'm from México. Two thumbs up on your Spanish learning. I'm an dancer an Astrologer, discovering and admiting I'm an introvert... sorta. Thinking about launching and drifting both of my careers as a content creator. Your videos are very enjoyable and I'm learning a lot. Thanks!
Heyyy👋! I was just optimizing my daily routine for the 2nd half of 2023 and loved seeing your take on this. For my mental health and fitness I added a long morning walk in the forest with my 🐕.
So nice to hear everyone goes through the same thing when making content and dealing with social media 😅 the amount of times I’ve had to tell myself “focus” when opening up Instagram to upload something is ridiculous 😂 Love the way you explain every step of your process and the value you provide 💕
Love that you schedule your "ME" time! We're always told to do this but I know so few people who actually implement this effectively. Thank you for showing us how to do this and for also reiterating the importance of taking care of yourself to save your sanity. :)
Heyyyy! I love this video and your content! I'm working hard to balance my self care and starting to work and create content more currently. Thank you for sharing this video as it really helps to know that I'm not alone. I also am a HUGE Outlander fan!!!
👋Heyyyy !!! Great vlog for sure! It's always nice to see someone's else workflow! this is soooo important to maintain the right balance between productivity and self-care/mental health! Great vlog!!!
Hi @Katie I really like your videos. They are entertaining and educational. I started my business about 2 years ago but because I’m not really a social media person it hasn’t grown the way I want it too. Plus, now I’m thinking of doing YT part-time as a way to reach more people for my business…(which is how I found you) Your video that broke down the strategy for growing a channel in 2023 was really interesting and the only one that gave a true breakdown with an outlined strategy that was realistic and it covered an entire year. I even took notes so let’s see how it goes! I know nothing about the editing process. (Software, skills, type …etc ) Can you do a video solely on the software and hardware for starting a channel with prices, strategy, learning the design process etc?
Love the video! It's so cool that you share your van life adventures and your regular day to day back at home. It helps so much, as a part-time creator, to see the routine and self-care of a full-time creator. Balancing productivity and personal development is so important.
I've been loving your videos recently!!! I pull up like 10 videos at a time in my tabs and just go through them when i get the chance you definitely deserve more views!!
always and forever an end of the video bestie! I’ve been starting myself up as a content creator the last couple of months and your channel and guidance has been so invaluable to me. love your work, your energy and your outlook on life and balance 🤍 and enjoy the gorgeous van life!! yoga with that view is enough to bring a moment of calm in even the most frenzied of days 🫶🏼
Loved this video Katie, I’ve been dreaming of being a digital nomad and content creator for a long time and I’ve always wondered how to have that work life balance when I do make the plunge into full time. I’m the same where I will prioritize work over anything and neglect my health, and I could see myself burning out so fast. Glad to see you keep up a good balance and have weekends!
Hey! I'm new on your channel and just wanted to say how encouraging you are! All those tips are so simple and inspiring. Defenetly going to soak them in to work on my own channel. Big thanks!
Thank you so much for this video. I’ve just started my journey as a full time content creator and I struggle in getting used to it from my usual 9 to 5 job. Your video has given me some ideas on how I can block my time for my tasks. Thank you again 💕💕💕
heyyy!! I've been binging your videos today and they've really been helping me, as I've been stuck with where to go and how to balance everything with my new UA-cam channel!! You seem so cool!! Thank you for all the advice!!
Hi Katie, I recently started following you and watching your videos. I love how you explain things. I wanted to ask about your weekly planning. Where do you place your task list i.e. your computer, paper calendar? I like your planning system because I’m a planner and I like systems to follow. I’m just curious. Thanks Damita
Hey! I love these videos! They are so helpful when trying to figure out UA-cam and Instagram. I definitely struggle with getting it all in as I work full time, have two kids. But I love the way you plan I think that’s what I need!
I'd like to see more creators across more niches/genres talking about this. If you're not actively taking care of your mental health then you're neglecting it!
im gald youre taking care of yourself first. Keep it up. Youre inspiring others! including me
Notification Squad 💥
I think this type of video is coming at a great time for me. I need a better routine and structure in my life.
yay thanks for being early! and honestly I don't know how I would live without my routines and my self imposed structure, I need it haha
So agree. I just posted a reset video and my goal is better routine with productivity being the focus. Katie is the GOAT.
Ohhh Katie, I loved it so much every word and info inspired me 🫶🏻🫶🏻🫶🏻🫶🏻
Heyyyy 👋 love this! So interesting seeing your routine while in the van. Like most people I really romanticized van life during the pandemic, but have since realized the limited personal space would destroy me personally and I have huge respect for people who can do it with their partners 👏👏👏
haha that is very fair - personal space is very limited! but we seem to make it work 😅
I love that you shared this video with us! I started running instagram by myself for my business, and it can be really a toll on my mental health, and I think not many creator talk about that. So I appreciate you're talking about taking care of mental health for creators!
it's so important because burn out can literally ruin your career if you're not careful. now my main priority is balance!
Watching from Panama, 68 and starting a channel called Retired in Panama, what it's really like to live here. Your videos are my go to for every subject. Thanks so much for all your hard work and for presenting everything in a way that helps me feel like I can do it! ❤
Hi Katie, I really enjoy your videos that combine your van-life with your biz. Thanks for all you do! 😀😃
awe thanks!!
I love the realistic approach 😅 Way more relatable than the productivity guru's ;)
I started watching your video's. This is the third one thus far. Although I enjoyed the video, I thought it was a bit too long, for me.

Also, I love your confidence and fluency in your video.
Yes it’s been hard. 4 years and 600 videos later, I’m still not where I want to be. Now that I’m retired, I’m trying to get into a routine.
👋 Heyyy! 😉 Can definitely relate to needing goals, even for hobbies.
hey hey!!! exactly, like somehow I am just hard wired to need to seek progress over time or else I feel lost lol
I try turn them into creative goals. For example, I had a goal of getting out for a walk in a local park three times a week but switched it to taking one nice photo in the park. Still achieving the goal but felt a lot more fulfilling and less like a chore.
Girl❤your channel is GOLD!!❤
Saw you mention to say Hey if we stuck around. I seriously love your realness, your vibes, all of it. Thank you so much for the amazing content!

Hi Katie,
I recently started following you and watching your videos. I love how you explain things. I wanted to ask about your weekly planning. Where do you place your task list i.e. your computer, paper calendar? I like your planning system because I’m a planner and I like systems to follow. I’m just curious. Thanks Damita
Hey. Love this video. One day I hope to be able to do van life.

Dropping the heyyyy, long time listener, first time caller. 😂😊
