HOW YOUTUBE CHANGED MY LIFE *in 4 months*｜my youtube story and advice for getting started

[@xxARAtaixx]

The fact that your voice is all shaking & you still push yourself to sit before the camera and come face to face with what terrifies you, is so endearing. Good luck to you best wishes for your youtube journey.

[@BlackBeltBarrister]

Great to see KZbin promoting newer channels, congratulations on your success thus far!

[@reesemadeleinefit]

Thank you ☺

[@ameenayasmin]

It’s so comfortable keeping your dreams a secret. You’re right- speaking them into existence is courageous. Thank you for sharing your perspective

[@Eda-Gunes]

It's crazy how you say you had 160 while filming this and now it's 2.72k! Wow! I'm happy that you are receiving the attention you deserve. I also just started my KZbin 3 weeks ago and everything you said, you literally spoke my mind

[@reesemadeleinefit]

Thank you, that is so sweet of you to say 🥹 I'm so thankful for you all! We are in this together

[@lucface]

Makes me wonder if the algo has pref on a vid to get other KZbinrs going. Also makes me think about timing. I’m just a noob and am only speculating but I would guess that starting out and gaining momentum before releasing a video like this is prob the move and then this type of vid will help you pop. Hmm now I’m thinking, can we track subs and see their growth based on which vids? Prob tools out there for this guessing. I’m about to start a channel. I have to do all the research still but fun to think about this stuff.

[@sherrymsri]

I can relate to your challenges so much! As a perfectionist and a introvert, I'd been putting off creating videos for way too long, but a few days ago I posted my first-ever video! thank you for this.. keep up the good work!!

[@judymyers1934]

Awesome video. I think that the biggest problem with KZbinrs now is their lack of strategy. Like they upload everything straight away, and then they run out of ideas. This business is about constant uploading, but not too many times per week (and also after I upload something, I use a bit of Famester to make that piece of content instantly viral and popular). It's better to upload something like once or twice per week, and it also helps to avoid burn out.

[@reesemadeleinefit]

I definitely think that being intentional about what you post and ensuring that the content you are producing is valuable is super important - it's something I'm working on myself! It's challenging to strike a balance between quantity and quality. I think once or twice a week is great to start with!

Love this. I’ve recently realized that I’m a perfectionist. And I’ve spent so long procrastinating on starting a KZbin channel because I’m scared of failing and feel like there’s no point if I’m not immediately good at it.

[@SoChelleFlotsamFound]

Same!!

[@reesemadeleinefit]

Being a perfectionist definitely makes any sort of creative endeavor challenging, but the thing with creating is that there is no "perfect." I am always going to think that a video could be better in some way, but I just have to accept that that is part of creating. We are never going to be amazing at something we are brand-new to, and we are probably going to mess up - but that's how we learn and get better! If I let it stop me from posting, I am only holding myself back from opportunities to learn, grow, and reach my full potential. And the same is true for you! Just go for it, I promise that the more you challenge that part of yourself, the easier it will get 😉

What I realized that it's really good for growing the channel is posting shorts consistently ✨️

[@Peejayyesthetics]

She doesn't have shorts, she still did good!

[@LifeOfViette]

Shorts ruined 2 of my other channels and I posted over a hundred on each. Shorts are not long content friendly. Im not the only one that feels that way. I have a lot on this channel as well and most of them didn’t do well at all. It took a long time just for a most of them to get 1 view. I took time off of building this channel to focus more on the one that got monetized first. KZbin was treating this channel poorly since I started it last year. Im hoping that will change now that Im only posting long content weekly.

[@cristinacranganu]

It depends on the type of the channel ,person , perspective and personal beliefs - for some people shorts work great for others not- if you believe they help you they will, if you don't, they won't

[@LifeOfViette]

@@cristinacranganu 😂 i get what you are saying, but the whole believing or not believing is a complete cliché to say the least. Because in the beginning my hope and attitude was extremely high and in the right place for the strategy that was being promoted on how to succeed with shorts, until hit video 90 and realized something strange was going on. I compiled a long list of channels that all stared within the last 2 years that all mostly had under 50 videos and they all seemed to have reached over 100k followers...mind you they are all the exact same type of channel, stolen content with voiceovers. There is something deeper going on on this site and no one is talking able it.

[@LifeOfViette]

@@cristinacranganu all in all, from me testing out different shorts strategies on 5 different channels, some also including long vids, it only hurt my longer video views and or the shorts didn't perform at all. But lets be clear, most of the behind the scenes is ran and picked by humans, not robots like they would like for you to believe. So I get it.

[@luckyrollmau]

amazing! i’ve recently committed to this myself. there is absolutely no point in holding yourself back caring what other people think. incredible! u got a new sub :)

[@reesemadeleinefit]

Thank you Mau, I'm so happy to have you here! And you're absolutely right, why would I hold myself back from going after what I want because of something as silly and small as what other people might think?

[@FitDadMD]

Congrats! I’m hoping to see similar progress on my new health and fitness channel.. it’s intimidating but I’m here for it!

[@reesemadeleinefit]

You got this!

[@ByJenCollins]

Love hearing this, just started my channel and cant wait to see where it goes and where I will be in four months time - keep building the dream 🙂

[@reesemadeleinefit]

Thank you sister. Great Video! You really encouraged a lot of small channels to move on and make more Content

I'm so glad!! Good luck, and I can't wait to see what you create!

That's amazing! Good luck:)

Your video showed up on my recommendation and I’m grateful! Hope you keep doing the things you’re passionate about and congrats on your graduation and future success on KZbin!!

[@reesemadeleinefit]

Thank you so so much, I appreciate the support!

[@kristiechiles]

Love this! It is so easy to talk ourselves out of doing it, but the benefits of KZbin are huge! Thank you for sharing!

[@reesemadeleinefit]

Thank you! And yes we really do tend to be our own worst enemies, don't we?

[@SubtleAnd]

This is so natural and down to earth...❤ l love this.

[@reesemadeleinefit]

That means so much to me, thank you ☺

[@jeffryesmeralda]

Congratulations on taking a leap of faith Reese! I love and follow Ali Abdaal too! Consistency & perfectionism... Oh, man! I'm still struggling with those. I love how this content is very relatable and authentic. Subscribed! Keep creating, Reese!

[@reesemadeleinefit]

I appreciate you!

[@wellnesswithchels]

This just popped up in my KZbin feed! I feel inspired by you, I have thought about creating a channel for years as well but have been afraid to put myself out there on the Internet. I also just graduated with a degree in nutrition and have had my own health journey that I would love to share and help others with.

[@reesemadeleinefit]

I'm so glad you felt inspired! And if it's something you have been feeling called to do, 100% you should go for it!! I'm sure you have so much to share that could help so many people

[@FaithandFacts24]

Just be you, be honest & we will appreciate that so much. Your very genuine!

[@reesemadeleinefit]

Thank you!

[@Shanscribble]

Thanks for sharing this, very useful for myself as i have just started my channel this month :)

[@reesemadeleinefit]

I'm so glad it was helpful:) good luck on your journey!!

[@hankeriesydney]

I feel you, and I feel the same too! that’s a lot of jump of your subscribers from 163 to 860 now!! Congrats

[@reesemadeleinefit]

I am so glad you could relate! And I know, I was certainly not expecting the amount of support you all have shown me since posting this. I truly couldn't be more thankful 🥹🩷

[@LoganSkeele]

Congratulations on making the commitment and sticking with it. Your future is bright!

[@reesemadeleinefit]

Thank you so much for the support!!

[@stevemartin7464]

Well done Reese, I have just started out on KZbin and dang, but everything you said rings huge bells with me. It is really inspiring to see a video like this. You are an amazing woman, keep it up.

[@reesemadeleinefit]

Thank you!! That is so kind

[@catalinr.p.8129]

You already inspire others ... which in the end seems to be your goal. No matter how many views or subscribers you have at this moment, you are on the way!!! Just go forward and enjoy the journey! Thank you and much appreciation from Romania!!!

[@reesemadeleinefit]

I appreciate your support 🥰

[@BriaDelyse]

I relate so much to this! I sat on the sideline for so long and I decided this year was the year I start. You have inspired me to finally post my first long form video.

[@reesemadeleinefit]

This makes me so happy - you’ve got this!

[@euphonicbalance]

Huge congratulations, both on an excellent channel and your personal growth. I too am enjoying my journey on KZbin and like you want to help people along the way. X

[@YeahThatDidntHappen]

This is an awesome video! Thank you for sticking with it and not giving up

[@reesemadeleinefit]

Thank you!

[@Recover_Your_P.O.W.E.R]

So excited for you and for how REAL you are. Most of all, I’m excited to see that it’s brought so much awareness to your POWER! ( That which makes you uniquely YOU) and that you’re living your BEST life, unapologetically. Keep going, keep growing!! ❤🎉❤

[@reesemadeleinefit]

Thank you 😊

[@allison-ifixate]

Thank you for this video, Reese. Congrats on your graduation!! You're so inspiring...I just started my channel at the end of April without knowing what I wanted to use it for other than to connect with awesome people who are looking for something that *I* uniquely can give them, if only in some small way that may feel insignificant to others! But I'm about 10 videos in with 32 subs (been stuck there almost a month!) so after a nice bump to start, total crickets, which is discouraging obviously. At the core of whatever I share, I want it to be authentic, relatable and helpful to me AND others. I talk a lot about my ADHD, anxiety and perfectionism...but I don't think there are a lot of folks looking this up on KZbin from what I can tell :-) At the end of the day, the idea you passed along from Ali about how the first 50 videos nobody's meant to see (usually) reinforces what I already knew, but I guess was hoping wouldn't take as long because I'm impatient and feel like my results should exactly match the amount of sheer effort and desire I'm putting into something ...which OBVIOUSLY is so not the case haha. Anyway, you've helped me shake off my discouragement so I stop comparing myself to others (or worse, my own unrealistic perfectionistic standards) and can refocus on what I truly believe: that at the end of the day, even if I don't "help" or connect with the amount of good people out there that I hope to with whatever I say or do, me just showing up vulnerably and earnestly and honestly for ME is enough. I'm 48 and spent 25 years in a corporate environment but am only just now leaning into the idea that I AM a content creator. I AM a creative. I do have a voice that I use to amplify and serve others, and gosh darnit...I'M GONNA KEEP USING IT 'til I find my people! Best of luck, girlie. I'll be cheering you on with each video now we've crossed paths. So excited to follow your journey!

[@reesemadeleinefit]

Hey Allison, thank you so much for sharing your own story - you are incredible! I truly think there is an audience out there for every creator, it's just a matter of time before you find one another! I know it's so hard to stay out of the numbers and comparison game, but focusing on that is only going to keep us in a place of self-doubt and hold us back . Keep making the content that YOU want to make and being yourself, and no matter how many people end up watching, you will feel fulfilled knowing that you are staying true to who you are. I'm cheering you on!!

[@allison-ifixate]

@@reesemadeleinefit Thanks again for a lift of inspiration when I needed it most! 💫

[@tashayrushing4253]

So glad you had the courage to start a youtube! Good luck on your journey.

[@reesemadeleinefit]

Thank you so much!!

[@sarahstamour3944]

Thank you!! You are inspiring to move thru my fear.

[@frederikwintherlarsen]

This is truly inspiring-thank you for sharing! After procrastinating for over five years, I finally launched my own KZbin channel two months ago. Now, I'm just a few subscribers away from getting it monetized. It's amazing how quickly life can turn around when you believe in yourself!

[@MoniqueWhiteley-xe7kq]

This video is exactly what I needed today! I have been wanting to create content for soo long now and I finally feel like I’m almost ready to take the leap but still battling with the negative self talk and perfectionist mentality I have. I opened KZbin for some inspo and with out even searching KZbin knew exactly what I needed to watch

[@jonboy2804]

Get that first video posted ❤️‍🩹

[@reesemadeleinefit]

That means so much to me that you felt inspired. You can do this - getting that first one up is the hardest part but once you get past that it WILL get easier with time 🩷

[@TedMattos]

Thank you for creating this, Reese. It's appreciated. I'm still trying to figure out a niche, but I do find value in what you say. I've told myself I'm going to create to create. If ONE person finds value from something I share it's better than NO people finding value... so I've done some good. :) God bless!

[@reesemadeleinefit]

Hi Ted, I love this perspective! Starting out with the intention of just finding joy in the process of creating is the recipe for sustainability and success on here. I can't wait to see what value you bring to youtube!

[@Christianbuilds]

It's great that you've started KZbin! I still struggle to even begin, despite wanting to for years. I also have the mindset that everything has to be perfect before I can upload it, which really bothers me and stops me from making any videos. My own voice and appearance when I speak sometimes bother me, but I need to make peace with that because it’s who I am. Recently, I've been thinking more seriously about starting a channel. I have the ideas, the gear, and the knowledge. Seeing this video popup on my homepage made me think again about taking a leap of faith and just start. Good luck and congratulations on your graduation! I hope you enjoyed Europe. Greetings from the Netherlands!

[@reesemadeleinefit]

Hi Christina, thank you so much for sharing this! All of those things were part of what was keeping me from starting a channel too. If this is something you really want to do, absolutely go for it!! You never know what could come of it 💕

[@asknatilove]

It’s amazing to me to see such similarities in the stories of new content creators and how we all face the same or similar fears before starting a channel. This is probably the 15th video I see about how KZbin changed someone’s life and I’m so proud of you guys for taking the bull and riding it. Kudos to you!!! I to am speaking into existence my dreams and goals of getting to the point of making my own “how KZbin changed my life” video. Stay tuned!!!

[@reesemadeleinefit]

I know, it's amazing that despite how different we all are we have similar fears, motivations, and aspirations! I can't wait to see your own video 🥰

[@assem_alashry]

Do all of this topics and keep going i'm so proud of you and you really just made my day.

[@Marlena-n2o]

As a perfectionist I can relate to your hesitation to put things out there. I think it’s great that you are not allowing these feelings to stop you from trying new things and growing as a person. You’ve certainly inspired me to keep going with my goals. Thank you and wishing you all the best:)

[@reesemadeleinefit]

Thank you so much 🥰 I appreciate you!

[@FromPeakstoParenthood]

I love this! I started our channel about a year ago but I've niched down and plan to start making a solid effort at this. Thanks for the inspiration :)

[@reesemadeleinefit]

Of course! We got this!!
