Jesus loves you. It's hard sometimes, but we never give up.
Congratulations! I remember the first video I saw of you, (the one that had me hit the subscribe button) you were using that beautiful wooden spoon mic!!! 🤣 I love it! Thanks again for all the great content!
My support. Thanks for the information. Jesus loves you
That’s the coolest wooden spoon I’ve ever seen
You are inspiring! Keep Going!!! This video might have convinced me that I should try jumping into the content creator space. Thank you for sharing!!!
Congratulations Jen U MADE IT!
Congratulations on doing such a great job!😃
Congratulations Jen and thank you for the great guidance. 🤗
Hello Jen, I have been monetized since 2020 September At first I was paid every 3 months then it was in 2022 it was every 6 months and each time it was $100 .00 and a little more. My goodness’s you made a lot in comparison. I look forward to getting at least $200:00 some day. 💕NonnaGrace 🐓
Wow
Congratulations!
Woooohooo so happy and proud of you Jen❤❤❤Keep going👌👌👌🩵🩵🩵💰💰💰
Congrats🎉🎉🎉
Congratulations Jen 🥳 Happy to see you grow. You have some great and helpful content so always a pleasure to watch or listen (many times I drive my car and put a video on the background just to learn something useful as I drive) your content 👌 Keep it up. Hope to see myself montized also some day 😇
I just started my channel less than a month ago! So far, I’ve had a video every week. I started my channel within my niche from the start, but it seems like you haven’t had too much trouble from switching niches :)
Congrats Jen!! 🎉 Keep up the great work. Yes, every dollar is bonus money and worth celebrating. ❤ LOL - I never look at my analytics. It’s so variable and can be discouraging. I try to force myself to look at it, but it’s not fun to me. I try to focus on the comments from those that support me vs the numbers. HUGS to all my fellow 40+ creators!
Congratulations 👏🤩
"Let's move forward in a way that actually helps us to sustain ourselves." Absolutely! So please don't feel guilty if you're sick and need to take a break once in a while!
Congratulations Ms.Jen that’s Impressive.
Wow good job! Love your dancing skills too 👍🏻 I’m posting once a week now cause it’s all I can handle with full time homeschooling my kiddos. I wish I could post more but I hope to hit 1 K soon!!❤Oh I’m a single LLC too- did you end up using your EIN or SSN?
I've not have many negative comments, but I've found I don't like the critical ones much! 🤔 Don't spend it all at once! On a serious note, well done! Every penny helps, right? 🤩
Do you have to go back through all of your videos individually and actually “turn” on monitizatiion” for each one?
Hahaha congratulations 🎊
Don't spend it all in one place, Jen!
Congrats may the good vibes keep coming.
Well done Jen!! Thanks for all the tips. I have just started my own channel thanks to you and a few others 🎉❤😊
Congrats 🎉 happy for you
I love the realism. 🔥 I literally have 10 subscribers & this is motivation to keep going!! 💚
I talk to myself all the time! But as soon as a camera is on me, I tense up! 😩
awesome channel . thank you for helping us out with the advise
Great information! Thank you!
Im leaving a comment for the dog! 😂 we just recently got another dog as ours passed away back in May. They are the sweetest. You made me smile when you mentioned the dog's newer diet. We meal prepped ours as she got older 😂 Ok, lastly I love your videos as you seem like you're in TH-cam for the right reasons. Meaning, you seem genuine and want to help people and it isn't all about what only you can get out of it. Hope that makes sense.
I have had this in my head for a few weeks now....personality is so important in building your brand. So much so, that I am going to be shifting in my delivery. Thank you for the confirmation, and also, I loved the VLOG!!!
You had me at "content creator over 40"! 😂 *Great video
Omg yes! Kandee johnson, totally forgot about her! I use to watch her ALL the time too!
Im getting monetized this year 🎉❤🥰
Happy to get the Descript with your link, Jen!
I remember those older videos. I posted my first video today I can’t wait to get 1k subs ❤
Well done 🎉- I would a follow @Thriftchampspodcast
This gives me hope!
Recently found your channel via YT's recommendation. Fellow Gen X'er here! But am living the life of a very young man.. and now trying to pave the way. I started my channel Oct'ish 2023 and then in Jan/Feb 2024, just stopped due to massive paralysis by over analysis. Then I went on a tear of uploading since about May 2024. Views and subs are slow and like yourself, am stuck at almost around 200 subs. Looking for the spike and growth like your story soon! Keep up the good work and messaging!
500 subs and 3000 hours? Why it says that i need 1000 subs and 4000 hours in my app?
I know exactly what you mean by our perfectionism getting in our way. I have been inspired by you and I’ve just started my channel after watching one of your videos (a different one). Would it be alright to mention you as a source of inspiration on my video? It would mean a lot!
Thanks for this so much. I’m hesitant and I’m so stuck on what the heck to make content about. I have so many interests and there’s so many styles, I have no idea who to talk to and what to say
I’ve had success using remixes to pull people to my longer videos.
Thank you! This video helped me out in what to do when I purchase my first vlogging camera!
Good info! Over 40 New TH-camr here. Just started posting last week. I will definitely screenshot my journey so I can show my testimony. Thank you for sharing 🙏🏾
This is great! THANK YOU! I have been wanting to do some videos on my walking journey BUT the thoughts of the time that will need to be spent learning how to create/edit has been deterring me from moving forward. That and just talking on camera, to just the camera. haha Thank you again, I look forward to trying it out!
i'm 29 but i love seeing those who are older than me succeeding on here, it's so inspiring!
Congratulations 🎉🎉🎉 Well Done 🎉
