I just turned 32 a month ago and have been struggling to grow on social media. I was posting daily shorts and reels for 2 years and still slowly growing. I have been posting 2+ videos a week on TH-cam too. I’m married, work full time, and have two kids. I don’t want to sell courses, but would love to make more money and have more time with my kids.
Hey! I can see you're really putting in the work so far, that's great! Posting like you have is honestly the hardest part (getting over that fear!). From a brief look at your channel, you need to do something more specific and solve an existing problem in a new way. "Videos about all of my interests: vegan food hauls, beauty reviews, subscription box unboxings and spoilers, true crime, etc!" is too broad and doesn't' really serve a single person with a single problem. You don't have to sell courses to make money, but regardless of how you monetize, your content needs to create value for someone. If you can, join my challenge, it'll totally help with identifying your niche, how to create value, and building an audience!
@@hayleypaigejohnsonI thought I had joined your challenge, but didn’t receive any emails. I entered my email again today. I have a super tiny second channel that I haven’t posted on in awhile where I wanted to focus on vlogs and vegan food content. For this channel, I started just doing beauty but I cannot keep up. I would like to still do beauty videos, but also want to be relatable to working office moms and busy moms/self care
Personally I would love to see a video titled My Top 5 cheap, easy, vegan recipes for the whole family… Your titles and thumbnail need to be more grabbing… Or How to feed a family for a week under $100 (or the lowest you can do…Maybe recreate viral makeup looks with a side by side photo of you and a viral influencer…
So good! I'm 38 and started my channel 9 months ago when I was pregnant with my 5th. I stopped a little after he was born so I could get our family into a new rhythm but I truly believe that the Lord gives you a bigger capacity with each child. The amount I get done in a day now would have exhausted me as a mother of 1 or 2 children but now it doesn't even phase me! I will say, I've struggled to figure out what would be a good offering for my audience. I have a freebie but not sure what to offer as a paid option. I'm a mama of 5 boys so I feel like I could offer something around that but not sure:)
I’m 54 and newly divorced 😢 But I’ve always wanted to create a course about an easy way to learn reading writing and comprehension of English. I am a certified tutor and tutored kiddos that were 2-3yrs grade level behind in those subjects. I also have taught a college class to adults that were learning English. They said it was the best class and learned more than anyone they’ve ever had 😊. I’ve always wanted to create a course to all. I am certified through LindaMood-Bell. I actually got thought by both original owners and loved it 😊❤
Please do make it come true ❤ People in third world country found it difficult to found one with real quality despite paying high tuition + extra english class costs.
Started a TH-cam channel when TH-cam was first in existence (that's how old I am! haha) and am still here today. I haven't been "consistent" with videos but I've posted since then and have started seeing growth. Also, I feel like it's taken me a LONG time to find my "niche" and it's just now starting to come to light in my 30's. It's okay to take a while to grow but I think persistence is key.
Thank you for being real and sharing awesome advice for 30 yr old women TH-camrs! I started a month ago and I’m trying to find new ways to make my channel more creative and fun. I am 35 with two kids, so I feel like I can relate to this video. Keep the tips coming! ❤️🙏🏻
Thank you SO much for this. Im 32, had our third 7 weeks ago. I’ve been stressing about this soo much, clearly I have a lot of mindset work to do. But I am for one thing SO committed that’s for sure. I feel I have no choice but to go for it NOW! ❤
Thank you so much for this! I appreciate this message so much! 👏🏻 I’m also a 32 year old stay-at-home mom/soon-to-be homeschooling mom trying to get my channel built up, and there’s a lot of times where I either have mom guilt for being “selfish” for wanting to do something for myself and create a better life for my family, or I feel like all I’m good for is just being a mom and that I shouldn’t pursue my passion. Your message was so encouraging, and I deeply appreciate that as a fellow mom, you’re also supportive of other moms pursuing their entrepreneur goals while still being present with their kids. It’s such a breath of fresh air, so thank you from the bottom of my heart for that. 👏🏻❤️
I'm so glad! Thank you!! I think if you have constraints, anything is possible. I find I've made it harder on myself as a mom because of making emotional based decisions due to stress, fatigue, etc.
I’ve been on off TH-cam for 3 years now and I think the biggest thing was that I didn’t need it financially. Now I’m thinking I need to make TH-cam work so I don’t go back to working at the same department I was in. I just had my third baby. I’m trying to switch to natural birth niche but my channel is mostly found by infant potty training.
Hi Hayley! I recently discovered you and am so grateful for this timely message! I wholeheartedly regret quitting TH-cam and entrepreneurship because of limiting beliefs, health issues, and just burnout. I wish I pushed through! You hit the nail on the head on so many things here and I’m grateful for this pep talk! Have a great day!
This video was very motivating and had me rethink my life choices and the way I’ve been stuck in a rut in my mind. I am 32 years old, married and with a 5, 2 year olds, and a 7 month old. I am grateful to be a mother in this crazy season and it will always be my priority but not going to lie that living in california (and with this economy) we have been struggling a lot and that has been a motivator for me to find ways to bring extra income. I’ve taken a course before on how to make youtube your career but have not followed through due to my mindset of “not having the time.”
I'm so glad that it was motivating! That sounds pretty close to us, we have a 7, 5, 3, and 1 year old - so I totally get how you feel. If you're able to, join my challenge, the link is in the description. Maybe it'll get you to want to bring that course back out or take some other steps. Let me know if I can help in any way!!
My problem is energy… Having kids has bee So exhausting… my free time is spent catching up on sleep… I get sick often and am in constant physical pain from fatigue.. I pray that I can do this! I really want to make it happen
Sorry to hear that, I deal with that too. A lot of people think “well everybody’s tired” but there’s a difference, right?!…fyi, I just signed up for a functional health lab screening that runs over a hundred lab panels and reviewed by a functional health team to help identify the root of the problem. Can’t wait… tired of being tired.
I'm sorry to hear that! The best thing I can think of with limited info is for you to choose a niche/topic that allows you to just do sit-down style videos. Vlogs, cleaning, all day type videos would just make it much more difficult. I hope you get better!
I'm 41 and have only just started taking YT seriously. My channel is monetised but need to take it up a level to be able to make it a full time income.
I’ve watched this video three times. It honestly feels like it’s giving me that next push. I’m always in consistent with my posting but as both my kids are in school I want to be free of my 9/5 job. And make a plan so I can be able to be there more for them. I need to forget about the crap and picking a niche or worrying about if I’m trending. Just post and get better with each post. It will happen. My drive feels stronger then every right now. I like how you said it. Think backwards for my goal date and what I want. I just need to block the time. Saturdays are my best days. I’m able to actually do things I like or need to get done. So I should plan that time better to get the video out.
Yes to all of this!!! But I do want to challenge you to picking a niche that is trending. Not that YOU should be trending or on trend or anything like that, but if you can create content that is in a niche that is underserved and in high demand, you'll have a better shot at going viral faster!
@@hayleypaigejohnson You mentioned one of the last ones. Making things from scratch. I was trying to make more videos now that are food of my nationality, Portuguese food. During the year certain meals are made and I saw there was growth on those recipes I made during the specific times of year. Lots of comments as well. I’m going to continue trying that. And improving on it. Watching my analytics after.
I'm 40 and I have a separate channel for my business, and this one for me to be more creative, and it's definitely not been a walk in the park so far, but I'm committed to working every Monday on my channels - at least for 1 year, and then I'll review 🙏
Sooo motivating! I have a 3 and 4 year old that keep me very BUSY. I turn 30 in January and have been wanting to start my own business for a long time now. Thank you for sharing your tips and success stories. 🥹❤️
@@hayleypaigejohnson yess I feel like I’ve been in survival mode for far too long plus I’ve been breastfeeding 5 years straight now (trying to wean off 3 y.o cuz its too much already 😵💫) lol I have many ideas and I actually started creating my own POD store with Shopify a few weeks ago. I have secured the same name over several platforms (insta, TikTok and FB), have basically all the technicalities done and now need to work on the creative side of my store (designing and adding products). Besides a POD store I’ve also been wanting to start a TH-cam channel for many years. (Not sure what niche tho but most likely motherhood life and homeschooling perhaps (which we have been slowly incorporating but will be more on it now since they’re older) I also have a passion for health and non toxic living so probably incorporate that as well. I am very good at editing and putting music together that’s what I did growing up. We have a black German shepherd who just turned 8 months old he is amazing but a lot of work basically my 3rd child. I just made his own TikTok last night and plan on making videos of him and try to grow his doggy page. Plan on writing down all ideas and ways I can monetize off my fur baby because I know many dog lovers out there who can relate and love German shepherds as well. To summarize, mom life/homeschool/non toxic living/health is what I want to start a business from just not too sure what direction to start or go in and what specifically i should talk about and how I can solve people’s problems with it. Sorry I know this is a lot. But there’s many ideas I have, I know I just need to focus on one thing at a time to be successful and grow! Thanks for your time beautiful! 💕
Yay! I love all the ladies here finally going for their dreams. I just started uploading shorts planning my first full video this week! My niche is "being able to do cool athletic things despite mental health struggles and no matter what your body looks like!"
I love this video! very inspiring! It's because of ladies like you that have inspired me to start my own TH-cam channel! I am over 50 with a plethora of knowledge and life experience in many areas of life! I hope others feel inspired by your awesome videos!
Thank you for sharing all of this!! I also live in California! I just started my TH-cam channel and I have 8 subscribers 😅 I’m talking about matchmaking (for singles) and vlogging. Excited to get this journey started! ❤
@@hayleypaigejohnson I’m starting my channel this month! How to get your style groove back after having babies. Realistic style and fashion advice for moms short on time and bandwidth and regularly subject to what Benny calls “grubby hands” lol. I have 3 videos in the pipeline so far and I’m just finalizing the last logistics that have to be done before I go online. I am so ready to get in the game!
@@hayleypaigejohnson this video is a great reframe that I’m actually perfectly positioned versus fighting uphill. So true that moms of 3+ know they have to just get it done… so they do. 👍
I started TH-cam less than a month ago, I m a 37 year old mother of 3, one infant, one toddler and one teenager. I also work full time as a Vascular Sonographer. But I have posted about 10 videos since I started. Believe it or not, I made my first sale last night. I was so excited and it gave me hope and confidence to keep working hard. It can only get better. So don’t count your self out, if I do it, so can you. And need I say that I have less than 100 subs.
…I appreciate this video, but I had to stop and comment quickly that, I went to public school. I’m 53 so this was in the 70s and 80s. I had a great education. My son is in public school now in the 5th grade. It is true that he is having a much different experience than I did, although his school is great (Texas in general, however, sucks in terms of so many aspects of public schools and are trying to destroy the whole system…but that’s a whole other topic). I just wish we would strengthen our public school system, and really give it, the teachers and administrators what they need in order to give ALL children who live in this country a top-notch education (no matter their economic status) as I feel like I had. For free. My parents didn’t have to do side hustles in order to pay for private school for their three kids in order to feel like their kids were getting a good education. I’m glad that concern for our children is what is motivating us to start our businesses, I just wish it wasn’t because of how our government is short-changing us.
I WENT TO A GREAT PUBLIC SCHOOL IN BROOKLYN NY. THAT EDUCATION ENABLE ME TO HAVE A PLACE TO LIVE AND HAVE MY FIRST JOB AS A TUTOR, SO I AM VERY GRATEFUL. YOU DON'T HAVE TO GO TO PRIVATE SCHOOL TO LIVE OK.
I am 37 and i just feel like everything has already been done on YT. I have no niche, and if i did this it would be to generate income to support my family.
You are so right that our experience has positioned us to be great content creators! Thanks but no thanks for calling us millennials out on getting older. 😂
I been wanting to do social media since I was 22, I am now 36 but still so want to do social media. I started this year on TT and IG but want to start doing here in TH-cam. I am a hairdresser(been doing it for 15 years now) but I do want to do a video based on simple living as a Christian wife with some beauty tips into it. Don’t know what niche will be better? Still I am praying 🙏🏼
There is something essentially wrong about finding satisfaction in showing your face online and people praising you for nothing, like zero achievements. Like don't get me wrong, influencers with a purpose like teaching other people to build their business, cook, clean, whatever so long as it is actionable, deserve the hype. But if you're just wanting to be an influencer without any value or you being good at anything, just because real work is too hard, there are a few words out there that come to mind - extreme entitlement, attention w****e, and others. Only very, very few of the people that post themselves online end up being successful, and those are typically very relatable. If you do not have anything to say or you're just doing it for the money, if you're willing to show your kids' faces on camera to make a fortune, if you're going to turn yourself into a plastic doll so that people like you, you're either not going to stand out from the crowd or you're going to end up hating yourself. Social media creates monsters, and if you look at the kids these days, they are not able to communicate with each other other than through Discord. Do you really want to be a part of that?
Yes there are those people online, but I honestly see more regular people doing it to create a life for themselves and their family...but maybe it's who I follow. I can see there is a whole other world to social if you look for it. My feed isn't filled with "plastic dolls"...mostly homeschool moms (because of our family), health related accounts, or people just sharing their experience.
I'm deriously considering starting with yt for income. I'm turnin 35, have 2 little ones and I'm about finishing my master studies. I'm an illustrator and multimedia designer and I realy think it's a combo with potential. But there is still the insecurity in me that I'm working on😅 thanks for this video! Ine of the points I took in consideration was doing the yt in english, it's not my mother language and I do strugele some times with it, but I think it would reach more people. Spanish and german are my mother languages and I live in Germany where not everyone speaks english ... i would be cutting of that people of my content. Also doing it in two languages would be so time consuming. Any thoughts? Greeting from Germany

From a brief look at your channel, you need to do something more specific and solve an existing problem in a new way.

I just wish we would strengthen our public school system, and really give it, the teachers and administrators what they need in order to give ALL children who live in this country a top-notch education (no matter their economic status) as I feel like I had. For free. My parents didn’t have to do side hustles in order to pay for private school for their three kids in order to feel like their kids were getting a good education. I’m glad that concern for our children is what is motivating us to start our businesses, I just wish it wasn’t because of how our government is short-changing us.
I WENT TO A GREAT PUBLIC SCHOOL IN BROOKLYN NY. THAT EDUCATION ENABLE ME TO HAVE A PLACE TO LIVE AND HAVE MY FIRST JOB AS A TUTOR, SO I AM VERY GRATEFUL. YOU DON'T HAVE TO GO TO PRIVATE SCHOOL TO LIVE OK.
2025 i’m on it
Hayley I joined your challenge but did not get information for this Saturday
I’m trying to monetise to make an income as I am unemployed. The why is strong! 37 with one child 👍👍
You got this! Have you signed up for my life challenge? I know it'll help!!
I am 37 and i just feel like everything has already been done on YT. I have no niche, and if i did this it would be to generate income to support my family.
You don't have to have an entirely new niche, just a new spin/take/perspective that gives someone a new opportunity within that niche!
You are so right that our experience has positioned us to be great content creators! Thanks but no thanks for calling us millennials out on getting older. 😂
LOL I know it's hard to have to admit haha
@gentleremindersbysarah Just subscribed to you! Love your channel name!🤍
@@sheissusanbeth thank you ☺️ I’m getting back into it after a false start a while back.
I been wanting to do social media since I was 22, I am now 36 but still so want to do social media. I started this year on TT and IG but want to start doing here in TH-cam. I am a hairdresser(been doing it for 15 years now) but I do want to do a video based on simple living as a Christian wife with some beauty tips into it. Don’t know what niche will be better? Still I am praying 🙏🏼
There is something essentially wrong about finding satisfaction in showing your face online and people praising you for nothing, like zero achievements. Like don't get me wrong, influencers with a purpose like teaching other people to build their business, cook, clean, whatever so long as it is actionable, deserve the hype. But if you're just wanting to be an influencer without any value or you being good at anything, just because real work is too hard, there are a few words out there that come to mind - extreme entitlement, attention w****e, and others.
Only very, very few of the people that post themselves online end up being successful, and those are typically very relatable. If you do not have anything to say or you're just doing it for the money, if you're willing to show your kids' faces on camera to make a fortune, if you're going to turn yourself into a plastic doll so that people like you, you're either not going to stand out from the crowd or you're going to end up hating yourself.
Social media creates monsters, and if you look at the kids these days, they are not able to communicate with each other other than through Discord. Do you really want to be a part of that?
Yes there are those people online, but I honestly see more regular people doing it to create a life for themselves and their family...but maybe it's who I follow. I can see there is a whole other world to social if you look for it. My feed isn't filled with "plastic dolls"...mostly homeschool moms (because of our family), health related accounts, or people just sharing their experience.
I'm deriously considering starting with yt for income. I'm turnin 35, have 2 little ones and I'm about finishing my master studies. I'm an illustrator and multimedia designer and I realy think it's a combo with potential. But there is still the insecurity in me that I'm working on😅 thanks for this video! Ine of the points I took in consideration was doing the yt in english, it's not my mother language and I do strugele some times with it, but I think it would reach more people. Spanish and german are my mother languages and I live in Germany where not everyone speaks english ... i would be cutting of that people of my content. Also doing it in two languages would be so time consuming. Any thoughts? Greeting from Germany
What’s a glimmer glass?..
A filter you put on camera lens
Yes, a filter! It diffuses light and softens edges so you aren't so sharp on camera.
