What’s your biggest hurdle OR what’s motivating you internally to get started on TH-cam? 👀
Motivation: making life feel more like an adventure for myself, and getting to share that adventure with the world!
+ learning/honing in on lots of great skills along the way
@@LifeWithLivz yesss! I love that perspective. I think it's the most genuine 😌
The quality of your videos are incredible. It's really encouraging to see someone that hasn't hit 1k subs even though they've posted a lot especially since the Internet would tell that most people go viral so quickly, and it does mess with you when you're just starting out thinking you aren't doing things the right way.
Yes, exactly! I wanted to be sure I was committed to all the other things I'd learn - if the growth is slow, I'm prepared and okay with that. Thanks for the thoughts.
So encouraging! Thank you for this video ❤️
Appreciate you! 🤞🏽
Just subbed ☝🏻 per YT’s rec. Awesome video and details. I procrastinated for 3+ years before I finally launched and just crossed over the 100+ sub mark!
Yes indeed - thank you! Every detail is so worth the effort but it's a tall mountain to climb 😅
Thank you for this!! I needed to hear everything you stated. This is definitely the content I am currently looking for as I get up the courage to post for the first time. Keep it coming!!
Appreciate you! Take da leap 👏🏽🤪
Also currently at 500 subs and hoping to grow more as we work on the quality of our videos! 🙏🏻 Thank you for this!
Love to hear this! SAME - I'm glad I was finally able to get out of my head and start to just share the journey. We got dis 👏🏽
Your video is amazinggg 🔥🔥🔥
Thank you!!!
Congrats on 500 😊🎉
Appreciate you 🤞🏽
Awesome video, thank you. I'm 42 and it took me a while to get started but I'm glad I did. Let's do this! xo
Love to hear this! Let’s go 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
This video really seemed like a conversation, I was hooked on your every word! Great tips, to the point and genuine. Respect, I wish you well on TH-cam and I’ll keep watching ☺️
Omg, I'm so glad it feels that way - that was my goal! Thank you, appreciate you 🤞🏽
Loved this! I definitely felt like we were having a conversation! Your video just gave me more motivation. I bought my camera in December 2023 and just posted my first video this weekend. I am learning editing and getting comfortable in front of the camera as well!! Good luck on your road to 500!! 🌟
Thank you! And that first upload is a major milestone - congrats 🤪👏🏽
Congrats on your growth! I started my channel in February 2023, but I've been doing mostly livestreams and shorts. I really want to shift my focus to long form videos. Your content is really inspiring to me.
Thank you! The growth has felt slow tbh but I’ve tried several different topics to just get use to filming. Def do your thing!!!
There were so many helpful points in here! thank you!
Much love, thank you again 🤭
This is so relatable and useful!! Especially about the tip of working on one thing per video. I didn’t even realize they were called L-Cuts and J-Cuts, but I knew when I saw that technique used in a TH-cam video, I wanted to try to implement it in a video or two while telling a story.
I love this video, thank you so much for this reflection and the seriously helpful tips. I’m definitely subscribing to follow along!
So happy to hear that - thank you for watching! Keep taking it a step at a time, it adds up - promise!!!
you got yourself a subscriber, am two months in the youtube journey,my goal is to make my next video better than my last,..i agree with you on learning and gaining skills...very encouraging content
Hiii - thank you! That’s my favored approach - one video at a time, one focus area at a time. It took me about 50 videos to feel clear on how to do this whole thing (I upload #49 this week). Ultimately I don’t think I would got this far if I didn’t commit to 50 but still taking it step by step.
Great info! The algo brought me here so you’re doing something right 😊 congrats on 500 🎉
Appreciate you for real! 😻
This is so helpful! Also a 32 yr old trying to improve my channel and grow so it's nice to see someone my age doing it. Love the tips and your channel - keep it up girl!! 👏🏽👏🏽
Whewww! Thank you girl - it's crazy to say this but I'll actually be 34 next month and I'm already dipping into 'Life in my 40s' content to see what the next phase is like 🤣
@@iamjordanrhea girl you don't look it!! Now I'm gonna wait a lil bit before I explore that kind of content myself 😂lol But excited to see how your channel continues to grow!
@@_onespicymarg LOL FR!
outstanding video nice editing job
Appreciate this! 🤞🏽
Hey Jordan, your quality is absolutely fantastic and it's raised. The bar really really hard for me as somebody who started a TH-cam channel many years ago and kind of have never got through it. New Life I've decided to rekindle my TH-cam journey and your videos on inspiration. So yeah you have one more subscriber definitely from me you.
Thank you for the inspiration and hopefully my channel can grow too in time so here's hoping keep up the great working! Thanks,
Thank you! It’s certainly a process, be patient with yourself but also consistent. Try lots of things so you can find what works! Again - thank YOU.
Definitely not a beginner but this was so good! I see you going far in this space, girl 💙
Thank you a ton! Appreciate this 🤞🏽
Congrats on hitting over 600 subs! I'm currently in the low 300's, but I find it so difficult to move past the negative comments. So I haven't uploaded in a couple of months now, but I'm determined to get back to it!
Thank you! I really understand - I saw a lot of weird/negative comments come thru more than normal/positive comments when I was starting out. I remember thinking: this can’t be the real TH-cam. Keep it up!!! 🤞🏽
@@iamjordanrhea yeah it’s weird. I just need to learn to ignore the haters! I have subbed to you now 😁
511 now!!!!!❤❤❤
Thank youuu 🤭
Thanks for sharing… I have shorts and one long video… I can’t say I relate😅Great channel
Whatever works for you is perfect! So many factors go into content creation - as you know. I appreciate you for sure!
Great video
Thank you! 🤞🏽
10:51 It sounds crazy but I literally did the same thing with my first video I uploaded. I recorded it in 2018. Edited it and didn’t post it until 2020 😅. It was a moving to atl video.
Sometimes we gotta circle back! 😂 I sure as heck didn’t know how to shoot at first let alone edit, prob why that footage sat for so long.
Thank you so much for this video, very well explained! I have a studio mic for my computer but I have to film on my phone but I'm so confused about what to do with audio... Any tips? ❤
100%! I would look into an adapter that will connect mic to iPhone. Otherwise - you could still record straight to your computer and sync the audio inside of your video software.
@@iamjordanrhea thank you so much! ❤️
Also, your pretty and unfortunately that matters for success.
Thank you for the compliment! I truly believe that success on TH-cam is driven by the value and authenticity a creator brings to their audience. It certainly takes hard work and consistency across the board. 🤞🏽 overall, I'm not of the opinion that a person's looks are a direct correlation to their social media impact.
When I first started watching your videos I thought you had like 100k subs and the quality and information you provide it’s really valuable! Love watching you work, the behind the scenes of your agency, how you get organized🤩 this was so motivating!! I’m ready to start being consistent🫶🏼
I’m so appreciative of your compliments! Thanks for watching - glad you love ☺️ and consistency really is key - you got this!
Good vid! I’m en route to 300 😂🥲🥲
Thank you! Take this thang 1 video at a time 🤞🏽
so I have to look at the lens ? 🥲
LOL - it's the worst 🤣
