Any guesses for what’s next? Thanks for watching turtle gang 😊🐢
Life is one long journey full of goals, struggles, successes, failures and rewards. You will become better, wiser and stronger.
I haven’t watched the video yet, so I would guess for you fitting would be Real Estate!
Startup/TH-cam?
Sure. CEO of Chase Bank?
Engage in some type of collaboration with other TH-cam content creators. Travel and vlog about it. Can’t wait either way to see what such an independent thinker like yourself comes up with. \🕶/
This is a brilliantly edited video. It's amazing to me how well you balanced the sound despite filming in so many different locations. Also, the script flowed even though you rotated between locations. Seriously, the editing here is absolute goals for me.
This means so much, thank youuuu 🥹
Taylor,
I've been following your channel for a while now and this may be the most valuable video yet. Letting the world know that tending to one's passions and embracing uncertainty is not only ok but ideal, is a powerful message indeed. Keep up the inspirational work and best of luck on future endeavors.
I appreciate that, thank you so much 😊
have been watching you for a few months and you inspire me a bunch! i'm starting business school at uni in a few months and am also starting content creation on tik tok. sometimes i doubt the time i'd have but then i remember how you literally work 70 hours a week and make fully edited TH-cam videos !!
Love the vibe Taylor. The social aspect is truly a big one. Straight out of the pandemic I started content writing wfh last year. But in May-June, I worked as Teaching Assistant for an accelerated learning bootcamp with other co-workers. And the happiness levels were through the roof even though I was literally working 3-4x harder. I'm back 2 weeks and the social isolation is back (haven't seen the sun in 11 days).
I'm working towards a part-time offline job (for social life) and part-time freelance writing (for $$$) as a solution now.
You can tell you are a former consultant when you referred to jobs after being a full time youtuber as “exit opportunities” 😂 love it and congratulations!
Hahaha guilty 😂 thank you so much!
Facts lol
I love both of your channels
Where do people even learn this lingo
Loving the fastness and honesty of this video. And congrats on following your heart. Wherever that may take you. ❤️
Love that each of your videos has some general knowledge to learn (in addition to seeing your daily life). Love all the "let me explains"! Please keep doing this and all the best, Taylor!
Honestly that feels ideal. You still stay on the corporate ladder and get professional growth but you get a full "summer vacation" in between the jobs. I do wish taking off a few months between jobs (if financially feasible of course) was more normalized, definitely seems key to not burning out in the long term.
Ooh this series took an unexpected twist! I’ll be tuning in to see how much more successful and appealing you’re becoming! Congrats ☺️
Aw thanks so much!! Unexpected twist indeed 😊
Taylor, you're right about the importance of workspaces providing common goals and sense of community. Many of us are feeling that lack post-pandemic. I think as a society we've got to figure out a way to generate those spaces without tying them to corporate entities. There must be some level of space between standard 9-5 structured corporate office and fully public NYC Sunday coffee shop vibe. Congrats on the job move! I've done it 3x myself in three years and don't regret a thing.
Next business idea?
What an exciting life change! Your videos are SO well done, so I can’t wait to see what you create with more time to focus on your TH-cam work!
The best thing about your videos is the idea behind each is relatable. Congratulations and can't wait for more updates.
Thanks Taylor for sharing those insights! I think you made a great decision in taking up on the new job offered while continuing TH-cam on the side. You are young women I would certainly look for that stable career that will help you grow financially meanwhile you got TH-cam to have fun, indulge in your artistic side and make a bit of revenue as well. I will keep supporting the channel whenever I can. Wish you well on the new job! Stay healthy.
Social Media Marketing??
So happy for you Taylor you made an educated decision and following your dream. Can’t wait to see what content you push out. Definitely will miss you in the consulting space but know you’ll do great wherever you go
Solid guess!! And thank you sooo much 😊 more corporate talk to come in the future hehe
As soon as you feel like your time at your job is up, there's nothing wrong with moving on. You owe them ZERO and they will move on without a thought.
Best of luck on whatever is next! 🙃
Watched from the beginning & so excited for you! Everyone has a different path and it's okay to change and grow! Sending you all the best - ready to see where you go! 💛
BIG SIS!!! CONGRATS ON YOUR NEW CHANGE!! You have no idea how fangirl I am towards you lol. You’re so smart and your sense of humor always makes my day! I love your energy and your personality so much! You’re literally one of those I found inspiration from and look up too!!🥰🥰
You are soooo sweet, thank you so much love!!! ❤️😊 your support means so much to me 🥹
@@TaylorBell WE LOVE YOU, TAYLOR!!!🥰🥰🤗
Congrats on the new offer! As someone who's new to consulting, the consulting experience you shared on your channel helped a lot. All the best with TH-cam and your new job!
I love how you switch places but the story youre telling continues! love the video!
Aw thank you!! I’ve enjoyed filming in that style lately 😊
Congrats on doing what’s right for you! To be honest I subscribed because you were a management consultant but I stayed because your content exceeded that category. You were the difference between just a work TH-cam and a work/ life balance TH-cam.
Thanks so much Michael!! Glad to hear 😊
You are a great speaker, you are charismatic, you are fun, you are playful, you are delightful to be around. So when you say words to other people, they have profound effects. Every single word you say is creating your reality and in fact your words are creating you. Now we are all going for a drink and celebrate life!
You are so motivating!! So happy for you and your new adventure!! Congrats for going full time and your new job offer!! I'll be here to support you on your FT TH-cam journey!!! More personal finance tips videos please :)
Dude, congratulations! Me and I'm sure everyone else here loves this transition for you. Oh and if you ever decide to move on from TH-cam, all of these skills are relevant and transferrable to any career you desire. Not only do you have a top tier education with an incredibly in-demand skill set, you've just added a ton more by starting and maintaining your own business, as well as editing, sound, video, and a ton more. Definitely not worried aboutcha - you're killing it.
Appreciate this so much!! Thank you 🥹
Congrats on the new job! Looking forward to seeing more TH-cam videos over the next 2 months 🙌
Thaaank you so much! Many more to come 😊
I’m going to guess something in the airline industry. Good for you taking some time off. I’ve taken 1-2 year breaks a few times now over the past decade. It’s never counted against me for future opportunities and each break was so nice. Being smart with money gives you more freedom to do stuff like that. Looking forward to following your journey!
Yes I’m so happy for you Taylor. I think you should revisit the iced coffee hour podcast to update everyone. Your content is fantastic and I’m glad you decided to go full time on TH-cam. Your channel is going to explode.
I love this vid, inspirational and taking a risk. Really makes me to evaluate what I want out of my career and the learnings that can come from a field. I expect more vids from you Taylor
It’s awesome to see a content creator who is so realistic about the prospect of being a full time TH-camr.
I feel like many full time TH-camrs at some point start to live in their own “content-creator-world” which takes a toll on their content I feel.
So I’m really glad that you keep on being a (awesome) TH-camr and have a real world job
Thank youuu!
This is the best thing young generations can do. As a full time entrepreneur going on 9 years straight (I wholesale & flip 🏡) I can honestly say the Freedom is truly bliss.
I find wearing what I want, walking outside when I want, going to the beach when I want is so fulfilling. Although it’s been ups and downs at times, mainly bc of bad habits and having to grow up some… I’m too grateful to have found this path. Never would I ever want to work for anyone ever
My pro tip would be focus on your strengths MORE than you do now and or outsource them out. 😁🥳 Continue to learn and spend money on getting a mentor or two in your space. This will always help hedge against and ever evolving economy, industry, and society.
:)))
I like how you think about everything so analytically it's a fantastic skill, I've just started my internship in supply chain and its been very interesting, lots of new stuff to learn hopefully I get the hang of it 😂😂
thank you sooo much, I try to! haha and that's awesome, hopefully you continue to enjoy it 😊 Def an interesting space
It's fantastic that you have all these options. And you seem to be making the most of them. Way to go!
I’ve loved your videos - been subscribed ever since I watched your interview with Graham. The evolution of your videos/channel has been great!
The amount of effort you put into these scene changes is impressive! Awesome video!
Thank you so much George! Appreciate it
Idk if you know this about yourself, but you really like to teach others and you’re great at it! You have so much knowledge to share! New subscriber here and I love it so far!
Awwww that I do! Thank you so very much 😊
Such great news! The more videos you make, the happier we are.
Just simply love your channel and always looking forward to seeing where life’s takes you and your vibes is amazing ❤️
just fantastic contents. It is so rewarding to see a hard-working and driven young person thriving in this environment. I can't imagine how proud your family must be. Continue succcess...onward and upward.
Thank you so very much :') this means a lot. They are proud! 😊
I went to school at PENN State for finance and I now work for myself as a farrier. Sometimes it takes awhile to figure out what works for you and makes you happy. I was working at Merril as an investment banker and hated it. You really just never know.
You’re doing a fantastic job with your scripting and editing. I wish you the best moving forward 🙏
It's a relief to hear someone talk about the realities of an office job vs being an entrepreneur.
It's a big risk to work for yourself. It takes someone with a certain stuff to handle it all because of the reasons you gave.
This is really inspiring! I’m about a year into consulting post undergrad and really don’t enjoy it. Have thought about content creating but really value my privacy, so would probably stick around for another year and take transition after that for a more laid back job ideally in tech
If you dont mind me asking what firm are you at? I'm interesting into going into management consulting and would love to talk to someone that's in it right now.
Thank you so much!! And that sounds like a good plan 🤝
@@alexdewey1503 Likewise! been researching for a while now. I know two people personally and they love it.
Best of luck! The time and effort in your videos do not go unnoticed. Keep it up!
Aw thanks so much!! Appreciate it
I worked in a corporate job and I quit a month ago, now I’m in the process to make more videos and also to find my real path in life. congratulations!🍾
I've seen youtubers do this over 8 yrs and grew and grew! It only got better for them. Also as an introvert I love working alone. Also making friends at work is very difficult. It'll work for a while but most friends I made never stuck around and moved on. I would def do this full time if I could afford the health insurance, and my monthly bills. Also just do it part time for a while til it builds up! It will eventually.. just keep at it! I started mine and I keep taking breaks.. I need to find more time, but overall I feel its less stressful than my 9-5 for SURE! AND gives you a better work life balance you are your own boss! WIN!
I relate to you so much! Quit my full time job to get a few part time jobs that made more sense for me while pursuing TH-cam. Theres an in between too that’s not spoken about enough :) LOVE your videos, I’m in NYC too!
Yesss great point! Love that you did that 😊 Yayyy NYers unite 🌃
I have absolutely the same thought process when evaluating my corporate job vs TH-cam! Thank you for voicing this for me once again 💖
Yesss tons of pros and cons to consider. Of course, thank you so much for watching!!
I found you via the Jack/Graham Channel and I think you should do some kind of pod with your man. I really like the energy. Congrats on the 100k + subscribers. I really appreciate people that have content that does not have 'like' and 'you know' in every other sentence. That diction drives me bat s crazy!
The jazzy, piano sound in the background of your editing works. The Tri State is amazing. Enjoy!
Great job taking the next job. Its so important to have health insurance and a salary to fall back on if for some reason TH-cam changes the ad structure on you. When i switched jobs, i took 3 months off in between and it was so amazing. Like a summer vacation as a kid, just better. Keep up with two jobs for as long as you can, it will only benefit you in the long run. You can think of all the TH-cam revenue as fun money (which you can save/invest all of if you want)
Wishing you the best. Good luck in your new job and goals!!! 💪
Thank you so much!! 😊
respect for this video, so many in the tech yt world don't post the real stuff, you got a new sub
Well produced video!!!! You kept my short attention the whole time with changing video, quick and concise audio content, beautiful girl and real world advice on a topic everyone is thinking about. What do I want to be when I grow up? What do I want to do now that easily translate to my next adventure in life? You have won my viewership in anything you produce!
Congrats and what a perfect timing - you'll be enjoying NYC summer to the fullest!
Thaaank you Anna! For sure, it's been so nice
Hey Taylor, is definitely a good move to get more of your input into TH-cam. Your editing, photography, way to talk on camera and the general vibe of your content has improved considerably since I came across your video about apartment hunting.
You are a creative and cool person managing consulting is boring AF. Most of people who I knew they were doing managing consulting 5 years ago all of them left and went into other careers and ventures.

Bravo! Being able to chart your own course is priceless. Looking forward to observing your journey TBell aka Turtle. ✌🖖
It’s so great to hear you taking this risk! Now that you’re full-time on TH-cam for the foreseeable future you should list your business email in the description for brands!
you know, I always feel smarter after watching your videos. They're like fun college lectures...emphasis on fun. Why can't professors be more fun
Omg thank you!! The utmost compliment in my book 😂
So excited for your new chapter!! 💖 #TEAMTURTLE
Congrats on your new job Taylooooor!!! 🥳 Couldn't been any happier! I'm excited to watch you vlog your first day there 😁 Goodnight mommy turtle! 🤣
Omggg i was so not expecting this !! That is such a bold move !! So exciting !! Good luck 🤩🤩🤩🤞
the carisma and power were literally oozing out of my screen, there are things to learn from someone like you
Oh my goodness how nice of you to say 🥹 thank you 😊
Hope you're jumping into the tech sector and congrats on all your success!
Ngl your videos aree so positive and always have a good vibe with some motivation in it as well. You handle your life pretty amazingly. Keep doing it you are great!!!
Really appreciate your comment, thank you so much 😊
👏🏽 Wow, you are a brave one! Gen X-er here w/stable job, the benefits, but company shifting ideas not aligning with my own. I’ve really been racking my 🧠 about jumping ship…having such a hard time with the decision! Impressed with your determination.
My guess; VC/startup, brand or digital, piecing together your Wharton, BCG (or forget if you were Bain), Fashion and YT work.
Excited to hear more, and my daughter, who will be starting undergrad this fall (similar, will leave out specific school but it is one of Rice, Stanford and Vanderbilt) also likes your channel and will be interested to follow your career arc.
Rice or Stanford will be good for this field i have friends passed out from there . Vanderbilt is good but location is not great it sucks
The consulting world is gonna miss you Taylor. But I’m sure whatever you decide to do next you’ll be very successful at!!
It is my first video on your channel, and believe me I just fell in love with your content (and maybe you too ;). The pacing of your video and the way you pan in out of the frames were simply perfect.
the transition between different frames and B Rolls at different locations was smoother than butter. And I really don't think that I need to speak anything about the frames and script( structure ) of the video.
Believe me, your content at this stage is far above and beyond the quality of content that's present right now on youtube. and I really think that you will not only be a great youtube but you will go at great heights in the whole entertainment / content creating Industry
Couldn't agree more with many of the points made. Cheers to some seriously high output over the next few months! Congrats on the 100k !
Taylor, I am confident you will be able to grow and sustain your TH-cam platform, because you provide meaningful content in an entertaining and engaging way. Only you know whether your decision was right and you have to trust your gut, and this is coming from someone who will be immersed in the corporate world (big law).
Thank you soo much, I appreciate this 😊
Being a TH-camr is really lonely if you do it full-time.
I think your choice is very reasonable and combines the best out of both worlds!
Good luck :)
New subscriber and I have to say all that you say is so engaging it’s very rare. I usually fast forward some people but watching ur past vids have really intrigued me so that I haven’t had the urge to ff. Whatever your plans are next I know you’ll succeed with flying colors :)
I'm proud of you for choosing both! 💟 Stability as well as a fun job
As someone in their 4th year as a management consultant straight out of uni, I am jealous of your decision making. I love my job and the stability it brings...But every now and then I feel like taking the leap and going for something I'm more passionate about. It is a very hard decision, indeed. All the best in your next job (if you're staying in NYC, maybe the next gig is in financial services but more on the strategy/marketing side of things?) and have fun with FT youtube in the meantime. I can't wait for the videos!! 🙂
Well thank you :) it absolutely is a tough decision. If only passion and financial security weren’t so often at odds. And thank you so much, I appreciate it!!
Never too late! I did 20 years in ACN before deciding on a career break. I think you’ll know when it’s time. Trying to decide now whether to go back or do something totally different!
Does it pay well?
Taylor, you are one of the most gorgeous women on this planet. You have such an amazing smile and your attitude and outlook on life is killer. Love your channel.
How sweet of you to say!! Thank you so much 😊
Quit my job at a top-tier IB firm for my startup and haven't looked back, best career choice I made. Best of luck, rooting for you!
Congrats for being brave enough to follow your dreams! Best of luck. I miss my NYC. Enjoy!
Congratulations on coming to this decision! My guess would be a job where you really are doing 40 hours a week with less travel. To me at least it seemed you didn’t enjoy all the traveling and having to work over 40 hours a week makes TH-cam a struggle as you want to do more to grow on TH-cam. I feel like it might be in finance I remember you saying a lot of consultants work in finance for a 2nd job. Excited to hear about your new job when the time comes. Also, good choice in ice cream flavor!
Congrats on the commitment to growth! For that, i am subscribing, keep pushing!!!
Aw thaaaank you!! 🥳 of course!!
Totally agree with your analysis on this topic! It is a very lonely place and I do love the social aspect of working full time somewhere. I would try to just slang both!
I decided to leave an industry job in the south for consulting in NYC after watching one of your videos. There has been a lot of change/challenges but that video got me in the right mindset to take the plunge into consulting. Seeing the person who helped convince me to make the call to go into consulting leave consulting has me feeling some kind of way.
I hope it's going well!
Great video. Wishing the best for you, well done taking charge of your situation
Thank you so much! Appreciate it. Updates to come!😊
Good morning Taylor happy Sunday morning and congrats on your 100k and I just wanted to say that you are amazing Supporter and I'm proud of you
If you outsource the editing, contents planning, or makeups.. you make the team tay bell! So if you grow your channel bigger TH-cam job is no longer a lonely job! 😃
geez I feel like a few weeks ago you had like 80k subscribers. You are blowing up!! Congrats on the new job offer and following your heart. Can't wait to hear about your fall/winter adventures Taylor!!
Ahhh thank you, it’s been so exciting! And thank you soooo much 😊
Congrats on your next step and hope you have a good time between gigs! Guessing VC or Tech (Product Management/PMM, etc.)
Thank you so much!! Good guesses!
So happy for you!! Wishing you the best of luck in everything you do!
Extremely excited for more of your videos - need more NYC vlogs!!!!
Always always looking forward to seeing you on my yt homepage
Awww thank you so much! 😊🥳
Another amazing video Taylor 😊 hopefully you have a fantastic day and it’s great you made the decision you made and hopefully you have great success in the future 💯
Quiting with a positive energy ✨️ 😌 🙌
Good things coming your way 🤗
I wish you had said more about WHY you left your consulting job 🙂 You talk a lot about disadvantages of the life of a TH-camr, so by the end of your video, I was actually surprised you want to drop consulting, but continue TH-cam 😉 Enjoy your time between jobs 👍
Glad to hear you took another job. Didn't feel right when you said you quit MC full time for TH-cam... at least at this stage of the game. Enjoy the best of both worlds, Taylor. :)
was really suprised.But after watching the video,I'm looking forward to information about next your job😁Quitting job,We feel worried little bit but unstable life is soooo fun!
This is the big chance!!!
Love your plans! Enjoy this free time. I knew you wouldn’t be doing YT full time and this is the 2nd video I’ve watched from you. All the best!
As someone who will be graduating next year and already got a summer internship from the big 4, I value stability so much. I really appreciate your video and love watching it. Can't wait to see what you will be doing in the future.
Thanks for telling us the truth about this occupation. I quit my job as a medical practitioner last 3 years after 10 years in the field. It was not a easy decision. But in life we all know one thing and that it is too short to dread going to work everyday. Friends I’m not asking you to resign your job, no amount of money can buy happiness you just got to be wise.😊
I found your channel, you’re awesome.
I really enjoy my profession but I appreciate the benefits it provides me and my family.
Sounds like an exciting and fun next journey. Can't wait for the next update.
Yesss it is! Thanks so much
I really liked how you came to the conclusion to quit your "Steady Job" for TH-cam. It feels very thought thru and mature, not just, like some people, "I just want to be a TH-cam Star", and don't think about the consequenses.
this is exciting! cannot wait to see how far you go with youtube :D
Thank you soooo much!
I just subscribed to your channel the other day from your New York apartment video. I actually just really like your personality and how real you are. I am so glad you chose to continue working and do TH-cam alongside it. I think that is a very smart choice, and very respectable. I feel like its easy to get lost in the money you are making online. I personally work for myself in adult entertainment and it is a lot to have your success only in your own hands. I am very happy and love what I do and I am so glad I can be successful at it, doing the kind of independent work I do though I have to be really smart with money and saving and investing it wisely that way I can sustain my lifestyle when I am “too old” to continue in my industry. Looking forward to seeing some new videos and updates on the new job and TH-cam stuff. Cheers!
Brave decision, I commend you for that! Best of luck with the new adventure 😁
