I wish you well for the future, you're honestly the best channel in our niche, I learnt a lot thanks to you and feel more confident throwing myself in my own youtube journey. I will miss your current content but will be hype to see what you'll come up with next, take all the time you need I think it's worth it, take care♥
I just signed up. I would like to think you'd be somewhat proud of me lol. It took almost 2 years to get monetized then something clicked and with your help, I have gained over 650 subscribers and a ton more views in slightly over 2 months. Now I'm going back to all my old videos and optimizing them with my newfound knowledge (again, thanks to you Ed). My new goal is to get 5 min of your time. I don't give up easy Ed, I'm relentless in my persuit of knowledge and wisdom and sadly Ed, you are the holder of that information. I may not ever get you to help me but unless you block me, my channel logo will be permanently etched into your memory.
Done 🌻😊
the emoji makes it look more scammy
There’s something about your videos that only a champion can create. You’re in a league of your own, Ed.
I think the reason I’ve stuck with this channel for so long is not only because of the advice, but because of you. The honesty, creativity and passion you bring to each video is what I love. Thank you for being you and bringing you to this channel time after time. 💛 Can’t wait to see what’s next.
100% agreed.
No other creator channel like Film Booth. The storytelling is amazing and keeps me glued to the end.
@@ReadySteadyExcel Exactly! Its mesmerizing
Couldn't agree more! His honesty, Creativity and passion are everything!
Absolutely such a talent for story telling and what an authenticity. You could make a video about how to brush the teeth's of a hamster and people would stick to it for 60min straight just because of how you share your thoughts in both an entertaining but still educating manner. I learn a lot from how you approach things and I am pretty sure I am one from man many others. Good luck chasing what drives you, it is a key in life not to forget what we really want and doing our best to achieve it. Cheers. Néné
Mission - to help people build a life they love. Constant battle between being mission focused or money focused lol
What would your advice be? Interested to hear!
Absolutely. My channel's mission is to help people live a life that (e)xceeds their expectations. As a result, I have struggled, done hundreds of videos and still haven't crossed the minimum watch hour threshold... With loads of subscribers who aren't interested in my content because I got them through shorts that have nothing to do with that mission. So yeah... maybe I should be changing my focus heheheh
yeah right, dude. Maybe like 3 years ago. You're all about that $$$ and C list fame my guy.
Ali?! 3.41m subs. That's a luxury problem.
Actually, after watching this video, you came in mind instantly :D and i guess film booth will transform into something like your 99/1/1 formula
It takes a lot of guts to not only admit this, but share it publicly. Thank you for doing that and good luck in taking a step back!
Huge fan of your content - I'm always recommending creators to your channel. Super excited for version 2.0!
Me too - I recommend Ed's work highly
@@Life-Inspired-Healing me three - same
I just went to your channel yesterday and said “Where’s Ed?” The video you did about Liv’s channel was so motivating for me. You are one of the creators that I seek out rather than waiting for UA-cam to recommend. I’ll be waiting anxiously for your return. Thanks for all the help you’ve provided already.
Agreed. That Liv video hit a certain motivation button in me too that was massive...I was actually lying down to take a nap when that video popped up and I was so energized and amped up to create after watching that video that I never took the nap lmao
When you said "don't watch this video next cause there's no one", I felt really sad man.
I really appreciate every single information you did share with us and wish you good luck ✌️❤️
same. Its sad to see him go
That part got me toooo! 😩😩😩
its sad but admittedly one of the funniest jokes on the channell
You did awesome job 👏, 👏
Mission: Teach the world to grow
In my opinion- you are doing it! You've given me so much confidence in what I'm growing! I have microgreens growing on the counter thanks to you and all you've taught me!
Your channel and teachings are the main reason why my first videos in UA-cam didn’t suck. All your editing tricks and tips helped me go from 0 subs to 1800 in three months, and now over 8k (using diff account here). THANK YOU. All the best Ed. Will always watch every single video you release - they are gold.
I will embarrassingly admit
That I am someone who has watched and grown fond of your channel and brand for awhile now before starting my own UA-cam journey and during it
WITHOUT SUBSCRIBING.
But I’m proud to hit that SUB button now in this moment because with this video you’ve reached a new level of help and inspiration
In showing some real raw and transparent authenticity.
Some truly good content and lessons in this video.
Thanks from now a true subscriber here for the full journey and the full mission 🙏🏼🙌🏼🔥❤️
I think almost all content creators who are on here who do this as both a part of their business and a part of their passion knows this sticking point all too well. I recently had a major realization myself that made me stop and take a step back into what put me on camera in the first place. I lost that way for a few years as I was growing and shifting as a person, and what I share here is so connected to that.
I've learned SO much from you, your editing, your advice. So your mission has definitely been impactful. So now, take the time you need to regroup and come back stronger.
As I've learned, some will love it, some will hate it. But either way you'll be more energized, inspired, at peace and enjoying this journey which YOU get to dictate and create. And it will prove to be even more successful because of that.
I felt this man, I stop creating videos for about three weeks. Allowed me to have some wiggle room to breathe and restock my ideas. So far this week I’m working on it! Thanks.
Congrats Ed! Such a big decision and I 100% felt what you were/are going through. 💯
Excited to see what comes next!
Thanks Niklas 😃
Let’s talk more on telegram!!..
Ed! You’ve been a MASSIVE help for my channel and I will always be grateful for the effort you put into your videos. I hope your next journey is infinitely more epic, not only in views but in true satisfaction, looking forward to 2.0 🙌🏻
super excited for the new content and hopefully everything goes as planned if not better 😄
That was a sad line at the end there, Ed. Thanks for all the great advice, always liked the storytelling style of your content. Hope to see you again soon, I'm sure Film Booth 2.0 is going to be awesome!
Thank you so much for your wonderful videos, Ed. Time to go back and rewatch them all in anticipation of seeing your new projects! ~ Mandy 😁😀
This video and your realization came in perfect timing and completely reflects what I’ve been thinking and also deciding as well. I look forward to 2.0 and see you align with your purpose and mission 🙏🏻💗 here’s to being more honest with ourselves and following our dreams!!!
Thank you for what you have done for us, Ed. I just wanna to tell you that you probably got no idea how your works so far been saving our ass. Any one of us succeeds in UA-cam someday, would never forget that.
100% agree!!!
It’s really nice to see this right now because I’m going through the same thing. Thanks for the reassurance that it’s ok.
I've been following you from 2020 maybe,
and have gone through your content,
Trust me you are precious.
Just follow your senses.
@@AMbiencesRadio25hz fancy seeing you here!
Thanks Ed. This is exactly the video I needed to see. I love channels with heart and purpose. I have gone many directions because of algorithms, views etc but I’ve come to realize that some of the information that I feel needs sharing may cater to a more specific audience. I’ll keep following you and maybe even one day do a consult… Look forward to seeing your next steps!
This video came to me at exactly the right time! After maintaining my upload schedule for years, I hit a stopping point in 2022. I took a few months off UA-cam and content creation in general because I wasn't motivated. I needed to reevaluate what I wanted to put out on all platforms. After enough creative rest and self reflection I finally had that "Aha" moment. My priorities and goals were once again made clear and I had the drive to make content again.
I didn't find this video at the beginning of my journey, but at the very end of it - seriously. I opened UA-cam to upload my first video in months and this was at the top of my recommended, and after everything I had gone through, I'm sure you could imagine that it immediately caught my eye. I watched this video not with a forward thinking mindset, but with reflection. To see a UA-camr who is 10 times larger than I am going through the exact same thing I did only reaffirmed that I had made the right choices before I saddled up again.
I think this video perfectly illustrated how important it is to have goal and obsess over achieving them. Making a goal and looking at it once per year is like trying to hit a target at 1km while blindfolded. You might shoot in the right direction with some luck, but you'll miss 99.99% of the time. I wish you the best in your journey and thank you for all the lessons up to this point! I really do hope your future videos are relevant because they are some of the best in the UA-camr space. You don't spam 100 "How to reach 1000 subs" videos, but actually useful guidance. Ramble over lol thanks again for all you've done brother!
Agree. Ed is different to the rest
I only recently discovered your channel but you have already taught me a lot. I’m looking forward to seeing the next chapter
I'll miss your content, but I totally understand. A viral video or two or three can really throw you off your game and get you sidetracked. I'll still be keeping tabs on your work, as I believe it truly continues to benefit me ... and I like your style.
You tapped directly into my mind on this one, Ed. Thanks so much for your honesty and insights. This really touched close to home and was a welcoming invitation to dig deeper. Good luck with reconnecting to your mission. Excited to see what's next. 💖
I'm happy for you Ed! It's inspiring to see you put your mission first. I say follow your own algorithm, not UA-cam's, and you can't go wrong.
Good luck with whatever you decide. I find your information really helpful in more ways than you realise. 7 months ago I did a hard pivot on my channel and I’ve all but killed the channel. I’m in the planning stages of a whole new channel and niche and your advice is really going to help me (mainly to be less boring!). I’m interested to see what you come back with. Have a nice non break!
Refreshing to see someone refocus to the possible detriment of their current success.
I think that you're going to find your goals can also apply to yourself and not just how you help others.
Thanks for sharing a bit of your journey with us and I believe I speak for a lot of people when I say we are very excited to see you return and the passion you will bring in reconnecting with yourself.
Best of luck.
Keep doing what fulfills you, Ed! That’s the only reason most of us are here: to watch you enjoying what you do!
Like so many others, I'd like to say a big thank you for all you've done for us up to this point. I've utterly binged your videos since discovering the channel - the content quality has been second to none, and you are very likeable too. Looking forward to seeing more when you're ready!
This is one of my favorite channels. I’ve seen so much growth on my channel. As you read your 5 goals I thought wow. He has helped me accomplish that. I only have 3000 subscribers but I went from 2k to 3k in two weeks because of your influence.
Thanks for everything. Looking forward to when you come back!
Thanks for everything Ed! I’ve learned so much about UA-cam through you’re channel and you’ve impacted my life so much. You’re so good at teaching people about UA-cam while also telling a story and making your videos entertaining. A few hours ago I realized I hadn’t watched any of your videos in a while so I checked back to see if you uploaded anything, and you hadn’t, but then you posted this like an hour later which is a bit of a coincidence lol. I think that taking a break from UA-cam is a great way to learn how to make your future videos better, and the type of video that you actually want to make. While watching this I realized I haven’t uploaded a single video to my channel (other than one unlisted thing that was just for me to find out the name of a song through they’re copyright system). After many months of learning about how to make the best UA-cam videos, I started work on making more videos this September and I plan to upload those on a new channel in January with videos far better than any of my older ones. Thank you so much Ed!
Absolutely brilliant. I so needed to hear this. I've been so focused on hitting that monetisation goal that I may have forgotten for a moment why I started my channel in the first place. And it was because I truly wanted to help people.
Thank you for making videos to help creative people, for sticking to your mission, and we'll be here for Film Booth 2.0!
I love how transparent UA-camrs are about pivoting and changing. This is the way
You’ve done incredible stuff for me and many others! Really appreciate your time and efforts making such great content and look forward to seeing you on your return with more!
I’ve just taken a month off, needing some time to reflect on my past 18months and channel, and it’s ace to see you say and portray kinda what I was feeling before my break!
Cheers Ed!! Until next time bud! 🍻
Smart move man. I have taken loads of long breaks to insure that I stay true to myself and mission. It's so easy to get wrapped up in all the views and numbers as a creator. I absolutely love what you've built over on your channel. You've helped me on things I couldn't work out for years! Really looking forward to what you're bringing next! Keep being yourself and the mission you have is truly awesome. Big love :)
Ed I get so much value from your content, thank you so much for your work. I’m looking forward to following your future endeavors.
Good for you man! It takes a lot to step away and rethink your purpose, when all you're having is success. I really needed to hear this!
Amazing, Ed! I'm very excited for you. It's important to take a step back and reassess what you're doing and why, so that you can maintain fulfillment. I can't wait to see what you do next! Cheers for everything up to here. 🙂This was also very inspiring to me, so thanks for planting that seed in my head!
Man, I am so glad I got to find your channel, to find you. I am watching every video you make because of you.
So whatever you do, Indie, don't change who you are!
I did the same thing a couple months ago. Wanted to make videos and do UA-cam but I knew from watching this channel I had a lot of questions I needed to answer.
And so I reassessed everything, picked the niche I enjoy the most, had ideas coming to me constantly, unlisted all my old videos that didn't have to do with the niche, and rebranded everything.
Now it's been a month and my channel is picking up a lot of momentum since my subs and UA-cam actually knows what I'm doing and where we are going.
This channel has been a huge help and so I thank you very much. I hope you are able to get everything figured out and Film Booth 2.0 will be even more helpful to all of us.
Alignment is everything. Do what you gotta do mate. Thanks for all the tips, entertainment, and value thus far.
A great video at the right time for me Ed!! For me, being a doctor and keeping with UA-cam and life stuff, it's really hard. Finding the balance and ensuring that I'm actually working towards the goals that really matter to me is difficult when life is full of distractions and hardships. But I think I'm gonna take another step back to restrategise and ensure that I'm working towards my mission!
Keep the spark going man! UA-cam is supposed to be a platform for what we truly love doing. I'm sure we've all learned more than a thing or two from this channel. Excited for the new Film Booth 2.0!!
I literally just went through this same self-reflective process too. I recently rebranded my channel and am in the process of shooting and editing my first videos in 5 months... I started this channel for fun but it quickly became obvious that I should take it more seriously, but if I wanted to take it more seriously then I also needed to figure out how to produce videos that offer value to a similar audience group for the long haul. I think I finally have my brain wrapped around it and I'm excited to get my new content out there. Enjoy the process Ed and I look forward to seeing what you do next!
Ed, I love this for you! I totally understand what you're saying. Sometimes you have to make decisions that's better for the long run and not necessarily good for the channel.
Whatever you do I will be here. I'm already a member of your booth club and I look forward to your future emails. I also love the tidbits go out on Twitter from time to time
love the channel bud, and have been inspired by your content. Looking forward to anything you create
Love it Ed. Love your honesty. Integrity and drive 👍🏻👍🏻
I am truly impressed and inspired with you ability to evolve. Not only is this one of my favorite channels, your advise is on another level. I have a one on one with you at the beginning of next month, can’t wait.
Mad respect man. Supporting you in your new endeavors, finding the X from a distance, and cheering you on in your journey. 👏
aww :( we need you Ed, please do not go too far. really got close to this channel personally and has helped me alot
You do you Ed, honestly, there is a lot of 'pressure' on youtube to fit your channel into a specific place, and it will be nice to see where you take things tbh
My mission isnt where this channel is though, but what I would like to do is just help people in some way through the mental battles we face that are (for guys) still kinda taboo, just not entirely sure what that looks like other than sharing experiences and trying to help others feel less stuck
I was genuinely sad and surprised at first when I saw the thumbnail for this video! But what you explain makes sense, you should be very proud of what you've achieved with Film Booth, and I know I won't be the only one who has benefited greatly from the guidance and encouragement you put out, especially at all the exhausting and other difficult points in our UA-cam creating. I've now subscribed to the Booth Club emails and I look forward to following your new ventures.
I love everything you do. Your videos, your courses, it's all been awesome. I had a feeling for the past while that you haven't quite been feeling it. I totally respect that. And I'm in this for the long haul. I'm so glad you're honouring your "why" and I can't wait to see what's next. :)
Lawyer here: Your channel is 1 of only 3 that I watch regularly to help grow as a YT creator to educate the public on laws. So, you should know that you've achieved another one of your goals. 😀 I appreciate all of your advice!
Love this
Hmmm maybe you should collaborate with legal eagle
@@cheetahluv210 Hey, I'm game! If you can pull some strings, I think we'd make a great Collab! 😁
@@MatthewHarrisLawPLLC lol unfortunately I have no connections but it would be cool
Your videos have been so engaging and encouraging so I'll be sad to not have your regular boosts of inspiration but I am rooting for you for your future plans!
I came into UA-cam as a lockdown hobby in 2020 without a mission. Reading yours made me smile and want to think about what it is I want to show and put out there. Definite food for thought.
I can't wait to see Film Booth 2.0. I only just started my channel so I can't really answer the question BUT I hope when I do, I'm right on track with my mission and goals. Thank you so far for all your helpful information! I like your format and the way you present your points on topics.
A realisation like this hit me, and tbh its one of the reasons I launched my own channel. Whilst it's still in its infancy, learning how to make entirely new videos, setting new goals based on passion, learning and fun has been a game changer for me. Wishing you well in your future endeavours.
You inspired me and taught me so much with your videos! And you always explain it in an entertaining way that makes us feel like you genuinely care about us. Hope you come back with more videos soon!
I wish I could have better English so I can explain myself better , but I really resonate with this video 😊 thank you so much for being real and for all the amazing content you have made all this time ! We will be here as soon as you come back !
Hugs from Mexico 🌻
I’ve actually been on this journey over the last couple years, why I deleted UA-cam studio app, created multiple channels, taking season long breaks, and picking up other hobbies like learning Russian and building a business outside of UA-cam (I picked up photography again for the first time since 9th grade) this video is a message that spoke to me and my own missions/just purely self development honestly
And considering the rest of the video and the description of the potential future of your channel, I might honestly end up being more invested in those videos… take your time and develop a structure and a solid plan, I’ve stepped away all summer to re-evaluate and develop a true plan to stick to that doesn’t just involve UA-cam but in furthering my life
Let’s talk more on telegram!!
Wishing you all the best and I want to say thank you for all of your content, really has helped myself and a lot of other people, thank you
2 point 0! Looking forward to seeing what's to come
So glad to hear you're bringing back chanel review videos!! They're incredibly helpful
Good luck with the change up in your channel good sir, I've only just found your content and its so very interesting. Lots to learn and apply, can't wait to see what you do to get back to your mission as it all sounds amazing haha.
Thanks for all you're doing. I'm sure you're going to keep doing great things, and I'm excited to see what's next!
See you soon again someday, you have just made me hit the notification bell!!! Because I don't want to miss the moment when you tell us the awesome story of where your journey has taken you. I have watched all your episodes twice, and thank you for that gift. Now go and build new experiences and once you are ready come back and teach us what you have learned.
I appreciate your honesty and sincerity. I'm looking forward to see how your channel evolves :)
I love everything about this video! Thank you so much for sharing this. It shows the depth of your personal integrity and authenticity. It also shows courage to follow your own mission rather than being dragged along by online notoriety.
I was recently forced to close my business - the thing around which my entire personal identity was wrapped.
Now I’m reconnecting with my own mission and desires and create what I feel called to create rather than what clients or social media dictates.
I’m excited to see your evolution, I’m here for it! Joining your mailing list now!
Bravo!
I'm excited for every video you release Ed. Can't even be mad I don't know what to expect because of the value you've provided and asked nothing in return. Whatever your vision is, I hope you find what you need. I have no doubt happiness and fulfillment will follow if you put 1/10 the energy that you put into this channel. Cheers!
Great work on your mission so far! I've applied some of your techniques and have noticed a significant difference in some of my uploads. Best of luck on your future endeavors and I look forward to seeing what you come up with next 👍
Edit: Just joined the Booth Club 👍
Mmm. I feel most of your mission points have landed with me. I'm newer to your channel (say, 6 months or so). My channel is massively under performing so I stopped producing and started a deep dive on how to fix it. This lead me to you, HillierSmith, and a few others where I feel I'm learning exactly what I need to be learning to make this thing work out in my favor. You have been very important to me...building confidence in myself to achieve my goals...helping to hone my creativity into something more effective...helping me learn how to tell a story better. Your videos are massive to me. I'm rethinking thumbnails and titles, rewriting scripts to tell a more cohesive story (thumbnail-title-script-editing). My road is long, arduous, but I'm actually on the right road now and I know it...that is massively important, a gigantic confidence boost to know one is headed in a good direction. Again, you're a big part of helping me find that road so I could travel it. I'll get where I'm going because the wisdom of others is leading the way. Yeah, that's a really big deal...and I'm grateful.
Much lucks to you as you suss out where and how you want to travel The Road. Not to spoil the ending but everything turns out ok!
This is one of the most powerful videos I have seen on UA-cam in a LONG time!
It's the fact that you are not only being honest but you are also putting your viewers and purpose FIRST! You don't seem to be wrapped up into JUST getting views and growing your channel numerically and monetarily!
I wish you NOTHING but the best as you fulfill your purpose here on UA-cam and in life!
Thanks for being transparent and honest! 🙏🏾 😀
Stay focused, that’s my takeaway from this video and my mantra in life at this moment.
My current mission is to make my content that’s entertaining and informative that can also incorporate a part of me so that whoever is watching not only feels satisfied with what they saw, but also got to know who the person behind the video is even in the slightest bit. I do this through my edits and I hope those who watch realize it. What may be holding me back is how demanding I am with my content, quality is important but admittedly it does take quite a long time for me to produce a video.
Anyways, won’t drag this out any longer, thanks for letting us know what’s on your mind and will be waiting for future content! 👏🏼
Your content has benefited me in many ways being both educational and entertaining I’ve learned a lot about UA-cam and how to make videos from this channel so I just wanted to thank you and good luck with the future and your goals!
Thank you for all the amazing advice, I'll keep up with whatever you do next!
Love the honestly! And your ability to take a step back when you need to! Very admirable 👍🏽
There’s no wins without loses and we truly find the most amazing life altering things when we take step back or even fail. This might be irrelevant but I don’t want you to think that this break is going to make you lose “views” or “audience” when you’re truly finding yourself is the biggest win. Good luck 🤟🏼❤
But it looks like his promoting harrison ford I never knew it was him on start wars!!! jajajaja
I love this. I was stuck the first year of my channel. I took a break but it turned out to be an eight month break 😂 It hit me one day what I was doing wrong on my channel and either I could change it, quit or keep doing the same things I had did in the past. I got views on my videos but I didn’t get subscribers. I feel like I’m on the right path now. I try to make my channel fun now, not just educational. I think I got it.
Ed I wish you the best for the next step in your life! Your channel has been instrumental with helping me up the quality and storytelling aspect of my videos and my channel! Now that there won’t be future videos for the foreseeable future, I’m going through the archives of your videos lol. Some of them I’ve watched 2-3 times. Bookmarked them in playlists to share with others. Thank you!
Just discovered your channel yesterday, but it's a treasure trove of good advice that's easy to watch. You have a lot of great content, I think taking a break to readjust your mission is very commendable, and something a lot of people would struggle with at that level!
Thank you for the information you've given us so far Ed. I'm not super huge or anything but without your content I wouldn't have the amount of views I have today. Excited for 2.0 homie
I've always enjoyed your videos and feel I get a great deal out of them. They certainly motivate me. I completely agree that if your channel isn't making you happy, change what you feel necessary because ultimately you have to be happy with your channel before us. If you are happy, it reflects in your work and your videos and makes your viewers happy. I know whatever changes you make will be even better.
Look forward to witnessing Ed’s journey going forward. 200% behind him. Anticipating many great contributions to come, whatever form they take!
Thank you so much for this video Ed. The pressure on UA-cam is really a lot. I’ll have to structure this “retreats” into my channel building. For now, I’ll still keep creating because I’m still trying to get good at it. Thanks once again.
You've already won my clicks, no matter what you post I'll click on it cause your videos always have some value in it for creators ❤️
Pivoting when you’re at the top. Brilliant. Best of luck and thank you for all your hard work and dedication!
I love your honesty! I absolutely love what you’re saying here and I resonate 100% as this is my same mission. And currently I’m working on making that clear as well. Appreciate your vulnerability.
I love your channel man!! You’ve helped me tremendously ❤ I think your doing the right thing for sure and I can’t wait to check out the new content whenever it’s ready!
Cheers 🥂
In the last 2 months I completely changed my format based on a test I did, in no small part because of the things you’ve taught me through your channel, and it FINALLY gave me the success I’ve been looking for.
Whatever you got to talk about, I got time to listen. Thanks a bunch Ed.
One of the most hardworking content creators. Thank you for everything .
Been following you for a while now and I'm glad to see you taking a new step to improve yourself.
Great video and looking forward to your next work
I love how openly you came about this new change. I’m struggling with my channel as well so thinking back about what my main goal was for this channel actually helped me get the motivation back a bit. ❤
honestly I watch for personality and connection to the person.enjoy the step back and lots of us will still be here on return
This is really sad to see. As a fellow creator I hit rock bottom over the past few weeks. My views were around 300,000 which people may think is good. But when I sat back and studied the data I realized that UA-cam isn't sustainable for my niche.
Every month views are harder to get. Honestly I blame UA-cam shorts for trying to compete with Tik tok. It needs to go for good...
The audience is totally different. UA-cam was always about providing quality content but now with shorts it's so diluted it's getting harder to find that real spark.
It's even the posts, the polls, and all the other bits that has diluted UA-cam down. It was at its best when it all just videos, not shorts, not garbage.
I've seen your subs grow at such a high rate and your views on your channel start off well then gradually die off and as a fan I genuinely feel for you. When you look at Catherine manning she hit her peak last year and since then it dropped off to the point her videos just don't show up.
I totally understand why even larger UA-camrs are feeling low at the moment.
Wish you all the best mate. Thanks for all the freee advice 🙏👑
Just did this! I feel I'm on track now. Wishing you a product reflective phase ❤️
I totally understand where you're coming from. Having started my mission to help people with Cystic Fibrosis (and other diseases), I lost that vision when I got so far. I reminded myself recently yo stay true to who I am on social media and I'm already seeing the benefits TO ME as well as others! Top man!!
I'll be here when you get back. You provide ridiculous value and I always appreciate the care you put into your videos!
